Gibson House for Women - San Bernardino, California

I went to this rehab center and graduated, and it is a wonderful place. The counselors and support staff that work there are amazing, and actually care about whether you make it in your recovery. Everyone who works there is knowledgeable, kind, and caring. They teach you many things needed for a substance-free life: relapse prevention, anger management, parenting classes, cognitive behavioral therapy, personal recovery plans, and more! They even have good food at the cafeteria. They truly care about each consumer and want us all to make it. Thank you, GHW!

The Gibson house for men has been a Godsend . If your child or anyone you know is dealing with an addiction this place is truly heaven sent. My son has been there for a month and wants to stay . He feels that this place has helped him want to stay sober. I love visiting him because he is upbeat and motivated in the 12 step program. The staff is caring the food is quality and he feels hopeful instead of hopeless. Thank you Gibson house for giving me my son back .

This is the worst place I been to. I would not recommend this place to anyone. They drug tested us and had a positive test supposedly. Then they take us to detox then the drug test comes out negative. So after that they still discharged me and another girl and just dropped us off at the mental health urgent care in Riverside. They also have to much drama, instead of sticking together making a change it's the opposite!

This is a good program.
Living conditions and carpets could use renovations, as well as the gym area.
Counselor Susie and Zoraya are amazing.
I highly appreciated my therapy sessions with Courtney Mera, LMFT.

I did not appreciate how unprofessional and rude Counselor Kathleen was, on multiple occasions.
I highly feel medications should ONLY be administered/made available by Nurse Patricia (who is wonderful) and not by counselors/staff.

They had a great staff when I was court order to complete the 60 day program which back then had R4 housing that you you transfer to. Of course I didn't care for how they did things but I did what they suggested and was honest with myself and with the prayers 🙏🏿 and support from my family I'm 28 years clean and sober

Horrible place. They treat their clients as a one size fits all. Each person struggling with any type of addiction needs to be treated on an individual basis. First it's a 14 day isolation period along with heavy sedation can't speak on more than 6 days because my family member called on an unsupervised phone several times and I noticed something was "off" and just not right for them to be "sober" and come to find out they were given flexeril 4 times a day , gabapentin, some weird pill I've never heard of to sleep & several other unnecessary meds. The high blood pressure med was the only medication my family member needed. 4 days home my family member is doing so much better and can think more clearly without all the meds . The 12 step program is mandatory & that's not right that should be a choice not reason to be kicked out . Meetings from the time you wake up until bedtime, just seemed to be Cult like program; isolation, medication and mandatory meetings.

My son and daughter are products of Gibson House. They were on drugs and alcohol and on the streets . From prison then from the streets to Gonson House. They are recovering addicts and I thank God for the Gibson House staff. They instilled in my son and daughter that there is hope for the addict. I recommend Gibson House to anyone needing help. Thank you Gibson House. Pastors Andy and Abby Rodriguez.

Only for Miss Kat, are you guys worth anything. If you’re on meds, and need them in a REASONABLE amount of time to avoid depression, avoid this place. In my case, I had the willpower and the proper mindset to go to sleep as a coping mechanism so I stopped feeling like I needed to leave. Hah.

Yes, addicts are hard to please. I, am an addict. I am also a human being who should not be threatened on a daily basis with being thrown out. I tried their program. I even sought help with my depression that night, at 8, as instructed. When I was denied my medication until a further hour (even though it was prescribed for 4pm!) I decided to go to bed and try to rest off the depression.

Berated by 3 consumers (not Robert Ramiro, the COUNSELOR ON DUTY) I got told I was going to be kicked out and had enough by 11pm. I did have a coping mechanism, I used it. Even your behavioral guy suggested i do it the way i had...as I was on the other side of the gate. I tried it your way too, asked for help when I needed it. I had enough.

And then to be told I can’t re enter due to aggression toward a counselor, or that he’s not Kat...please. Get your own skills, learn how to read those in need, and if they do something on their own to prevent an outburst, suicide, leaving, what have you, don’t provoke them with a damned consumer who doesn’t have the right to come and tell me I’m gonna be kicked out. Glad I left. And if I was actually running up on you, you would know about it. I ran to the gate after being told I wasn’t permitted to get my property until the next day. That grievance is coming. Even if you didn’t hand me the paper.
