Client Reviews

Without a doubt, an incredible place. Smack dab in the middle of nowhere, right across from a beautiful park on the CT river. Staff and peers have been fantastic, and it's such a tight knit community, it's impossible not to feel safe and welcome. The facility is immaculate, the food is great, and the beds are comfortable. Groups are well established, as well as engaging, and thought provoking. It's refreshing getting so many perspectives and different learning styles under one roof. There's plenty of room to grow, heal, and to make a fresh start here. Better futures and lifetime bonds are forged here, so enjoy the stay!

This may be one of the easier reviews I've been afforded the luxury to give. We all need help in one way or another but if the needs for help are great enough that you or someone you know require treatment, then Paramount is definitely somewhere worth recommending. Staff is very knowledgeable and caring with a mixture of tough love and unwavering support. The facility is clean and well kept, and although not a primary requirement of mine, was definitely a plus. Treatment is not a one size fits all and the requirements for long term success rest solely on the person attending. However, with an open mind, desire to change, and motivation to put in the work, those tools will be given to you there. Tools are only as good as the application, so ask questions, advocate for yourself, and give yourself a fighting chance because the support system you will receive at Paramount will be more than happy to oblige and set you on a path that is infinitely more palatable than one can manage by trying to figure it out on their own.

It is a wonderful place with staff who will fully commit to you and your sobriety. Lorena, Ginny, and Shana are truly some of the best people who have ever helped in my recovery. I will never forget my experience here as they have changed my life for the better. 10/10 highly recommend if you want to get on the right step for sobriety.

Our helpline is offered at no cost to you and with no obligation to enter into treatment.
