总体而言,这是一个昂贵的失望。我的建议是看其他地方。零心理健康的关注。Nova处理成瘾的“疾病”,仅此而已。在整个28天内,从来没有花任何时间让客户的头缠绕着为什么他们首先寻求以自己的选择躲藏的东西。当我问为什么时,我被告知这并不重要。该疾病是“真正的”问题。难道不是两者都...吗?在Nova,几乎没有尝试吸引客户及其特定需求。一种非常曲奇的方法。 And..."if this isn't working, it's your fault, not ours. We know what to do, you don't. Submit to power (Nova) and never forget that you are powerless..." Nova is big on instilling a mindset of addict for life. Including letting you know that it may take several times at treatment to make any headway. In addition, I am a counselor at several of the northern Wisconsin's prisons, and the staff that I met and spoke to at Nova were on an ego trip much like what I've observed when corrections officers interact with inmates. "Keep your mouth shut, we aren't interested in what you think." The message is, "listen to the lectures, read these papers and complete these assignments, then you'll be healed", rather than, "tell me about yourself and let's tailor something to you". Cold, impersonal and stern, often to the point of being militant. Thankfully my son went into Nova with his head on mostly straight and was able to ride it out or it would have been a disaster. Not what we had hoped for him at all.
