I want to give a huge shout out to my care team! Dr. Vejar did an amazing job with my family sessions. Anna was AMAZING and really changed my life. The EMDR sessions with her were really effective! I also want to give a shout out to the RA staff they were very friendly. It also helped that a lot of the staff there is in recovery themselves. Lastly I want to thanks the chefs for accommodating my diet they really went above and beyond! Mike Stadlberger2025-07-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AToN is an incredible place with excellent staff. Their philosophy and approach towards addiction and recovery changed my life. Thank you james zink2025-06-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really wanted to like this program because the concept and some parts of it were good, and I appreciate the effort put into helping people. However, my personal experience was very disappointing and felt unfair. During a therapy group, I was trying to use my coping skills to stabilize myself—covering my face with a pillow—because I needed that space to process. Instead of support or understanding, I was told to remove myself and then kicked out before I even had a chance to calm down. This approach felt harsh and unbalanced. I’m also a Black male, and while I don’t want to make this about race explicitly, I can’t help but wonder if that played a part in how quickly I was judged and removed without being given a real opportunity to work through my emotions or make changes. The program has potential, but the way they handled my situation left me feeling unsupported and punished rather than helped. I believe a more compassionate, patient approach would make a huge difference. Regardless I don’t think I should have been kicked out.

I joined AToN right after covid and I thank God for this place every single day of my life hence, why im writing this review. I am almost 3 years sober now and have this place to thank. AToN saved my life and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The care, activities and exercises for strengthening your mind, body and soul are truly a God send. My family sought out to provide the best care I can possibly have to start my sober journey, after an intense battle with alcohol, AToN is where I landed. Thanks to them and this program, i had a rebirth and my life has changed drastically. If you're looking for a way out and need to make life changing decisions, look no further! This place will change your life! Thank you AToN 🙏 Devon Heidenreiter2024-06-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Aton was an amazing place I would refer to anyone needing treatment. There wasn’t a single staff member who was rude, great therapists, very clean facility, fast response from doctors, amazing case worker that will help set you up for aftercare anywhere in the country, and top notch holistics. Unfortunately I’ve been to many rehabs and no where even holds a candle to this place. Would only send my family or friends here. Thank you ATON! Kristen Anuat2023-12-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This place was life changing. I found ATON after a recent life upheaval left me drinking like crazy and unable to dig myself out of a deep depression. I went in a total empty shell of a person , and left there FOREVER changed! ATON’s focus on dealing with WHY you struggle with addiction rather than just putting a bandaid over it .. is the only reason I am thriving today. I had been to a rehab 3 years prior and saw what makes ATON so different than ANY OTHER program. First off, you are in such BEAUTIFUL surroundings, staff is there 24 hrs a day to make sure you have what you need and lastly .. constant therapy and holistics to make sure your mind, body, and soul are all being treated. The staff would have the jacuzzi and coffee ready for me by 5am. I would listen to my music or podcasts while watching the sunrise In this gorgeous backyard. Then do a cold plunge in the pool. It was so peaceful and put me into a routine I would carry on when I got home. The food is top notch and they accommodate ANY recommendations you ask for. The therapists genuinely care and listen. They are all working together to make sure you are on a path to recovery once you leave…and prep you for what comes after. Breana was AMAZING in dealing with your aftercare She lined me up with therapists for me AND my daughter. Did all the legwork with insurance etc. I was able to just focus on ME. Kiyana and the rest of my team helped me deal with the root of my struggles .. that went BEYOND just drinking. I left there completely changed! It’s been over 3 months and I still sit down and go through my big binder of notes from our daily therapy sessions. I Kept up my daily routine of self care and taking time Out. My kids and family can’t believe what a changed person I am. I just couldn’t be more grateful to this place. I would HIGHLY recommend this program to ANYONE… as long as you go in ready to change and do the work … you’ll never be the same. I owe my life to ATON
