CLAREMATRIX, CA 90404

Lied on me said I tested for alcohol inside of the treatment when I literally had 3 days left to graduate just cause I woke up late or was late to group twice since I been there they don’t like blacks don’t go here

I was a client of Clare Matrix being with my detox, in-patient treatment, intensive outpatient (IOP) and Recovery Bridge Housing (RBH). I’ve been sober for over a year now and I’m grateful and thankful for the level care I received from each program.

Its business as usual with 7 out of 10 self-righteous, all of a sudden morally superior drug dependency counselors who act as if they are Senior Corrections Officers high on a false sense of power and authority, instead of humble and kind "recovered" addicts who are in the field of helping others less fortunate "still caught in the crossfire. " The treatment groups are redundant psychobabble sessions instructed from boring repetitive "worksheet handouts" that become mental torture to endure, unless your ironically one of the fortunate opioid addicts, in which case they GENEROUSLY dose u with enough suboxone to skywalk on a PhARMAceutical high cloud through grouptime from "morning devotion" to dinner. If u cant transform into a mindless drone and conform, follow, and obey INSTANTLY as u enter their admission doors to receive their PHARMACEUTICAL induced zombie-state of PSEUDO treatment, u will inevitably suffer staff antagonizing u, preying on your downfall, and literally encouraging you to leave and "go relapse! '' 9 out of 10 of the patients I was close to and graduated, relapsed within 6 months of leaving there. In addition, securing a bed through their sober living program is so arbitrary it can be considered equivalent to Section *8 lottery. One on one Case-Management by randomly assigned Counselors provides inadequate 'fill-in-the-blanks'' insignificant resources that 9 out of 10 successful graduates that came in homeless and destitute are NO better off the day its time to leave, than the day they came in with no where to go. I ASSIGNED 1-star rating review only for the precise aspect they have that attracts patients to them: THEIR LOCATION, the beautiful city of SANTA MONICA. Make no mistake "clare/matrix" is a business machine earning revenue readily providing pharmaceutical drugs to substitute illegal substances, without providng adequate treatment necessary to substantiate their fallacious claim of "changing lives. " If you have a close friend,
respected colleague, or valued family member who suffers from the disease of addiction and you seek to get him/her life-changing treatment, DO NOT be misguided to elect CLARE/MATRIX because even though it is located in Santa Monica, this ambitious business portraying a "Treatment Facility" does not reflect the lofty core values of higher quality living demonstrated by sorrounding environment.
