Without the help and guidance from Banyan I wouldn’t have survived my addiction. They started my process of recovery and have been in my corner ever since. Through the alumni program I stay in contact with Teddy who goes above and beyond!
Once I completed detox, they kept me active with meetings and boxing, which was amazing. Highly recommend if you're serious about staying sober.
