“I was extremely scared going into Momenta, and I was in extreme denial. Momenta really helped me find out more about myself and my individual issues, along with integrating into the group with activities and group therapy. The staff was incredibly kind and caring, exceeding all expectations; techs, clinicians, and administrative staff alike. This truly is a healing place for women, and I felt so safe and honestly, really loved.”

“Momenta has changed my life in ways I cannot express. I came in broken and defensive, ready to fight, and they came along side of me and helped me until I could help myself. The therapy here is intense and exactly what I needed to heal, recover, and have a chance to thrive in life. I will be forever grateful for this experience, for the staff, and for my peers.”

“Today, 3 Years ago I arrived at Momenta.
I am sure you have many days where you question what you do and why you do it.
I want to share why:
You know the reasons I was broken; you know the ways in which that displayed, but I want to share where my life has transformed since then. I feel like Momenta gave me the foundations other people may have received from their family of origin--endless love, patience, and meeting me where I was at, has gotten me this far.
I live in a nice apartment, with a functional life. Cooking, Laundry, Grocery shopping, like a human.
I hold down a solid job.
I volunteer in a nonprofit organization, helping young adults find themselves.
I meet people regularly who I can share my recovery journey with and give them inspiration for their own. Most of these conversations are about me being my true self, and the other person asking me about my journey.
I Go to Aerial yoga regularly, which may sound small, but I was someone who never committed to anything and didn't try anything new. We did Aerial yoga once at Momenta, and that made me explore it and keep showing up weekly until I grasped it.
I am learning how to surf, and even though I don't excel at it, I have the confidence to keep trying.
I have learned to shoot product photography. I hope to partner up with a photographer, work on the side for commission for him, and hopefully go into this full-time [Another thing I learned while at Momenta].
I will do art or scrapbooking when I need to wind down
I have a full social life and spend weekends and evenings with growth-minded people in a confident manner.
These things each sound very small but coming from a place of being trained "You aren't worth anything", "You aren't good at anything" "There is no part of you which is loveable besides the things you do" "You aren't capable of opening a business" "You always start things and never finish" and much more- [they are big in the context of my life].
When I drive, I often let my mind daydream about my time in Momenta and the different experiences I had there. Momenta will always be a safe space in my mind.
The Momenta alumni reunion last year was also such a healing part of my journey.
The book I was given during my transition ceremony I will often take out just to read.
Now, I embrace the life I have.
I love you all,”

They showed me there’s a life worth living if you’re willing to work for it and you want badly enough! They treat everyone with love and compassion.”

“When I admitted to myself and others that I needed help, I didn’t even know where to start. I spoke to the staff with Momenta and immediately felt safe and knew that this was the place I needed to go. I was terrified of this new step that I was taking in my life but everyone who was at Momenta made me feel safe and at home. I went into this facility knowing I needed to make a change, but I didn’t know that my entire life would be changed. Every staff member helped and inspired me to be the best version of myself that I could be. They also provided me with the tools that I needed to cope with my emotions and to continue working through the process of recovery. I am so grateful for the time I spent at Momenta Recovery and for all the people I met throughout that journey—people who still go out of their way to support me and be there for me.”

“I came to Momenta lost, broken, and terrified. I needed rehab. I needed structure. I needed to be loved. I needed the mirror held up to me. I needed to surrender and believe in myself again. Momenta gave me all these things and so much more. By 2019 I had been to 5 rehabilitation centers. My first was at 16 years old. I could manage to get some clean time and would end up relapsing repeatedly. I had lost any hope of becoming sober. I couldn’t believe it myself. I felt so lonely and overwhelmed. I also knew if I wanted even a chance to recover that I needed to go to treatment again. A dear family friend introduced me to Momenta. My life hasn’t been the same since. For the first time in I don’t know how long I felt I could trust someone again. I was thrown a lifeline while I was drowning, and it was called Momenta. Momenta saved my life. I am forever thankful. I stand here today 47 years old with 4 years sober. I dealt with unresolved trauma and past pain. I learned how to cope with life. I became more authentic. I have friendships at Momenta that I cherish to this day. I needed to heal. Momenta gave me healing. I am forever grateful and truly love my life today. My counselor Kari said something to me I will never forget. She said, “Addiction is the symptom of unresolved trauma” and I took it to heart. So, I surrendered and did the work. I did whatever was asked of me. Because for the first time in years, I believed in myself.
Thank you for everything”.

My children have their mom back. My husband has his partner back. My lifelong friends have their friends back. More than that, I have myself back. And am now truly living the life I was meant to live.
When I arrived at Momenta in early July 2023, I was at rock bottom. I had everything to live for (family and friends I loved a career I was thriving at, activities and hobbies I should have been enjoying) and yet I was dying. I was fighting incredibly hard to battle alcohol addiction, yet I was losing. With every failure, the relapses got worse, and I got sicker. The thought of stepping away from my children and the life I had worked so hard to build was heartbreaking, but I was out of options, so I summoned all remaining courage and made the hardest decision of my life. A decision that turned out to be the best decision I've ever made.
At Momenta I discovered a new world. A safe world of compassion, nurture, and growth. The recovery support staff and clinicians are committed to providing the very best patient care. Mentally, they break everything down scientifically and pragmatically. Emotionally, we did deep work leveraging all the most effective modalities. Physically, they got us moving and we enjoyed many beautiful hikes and outings that healed not only my body but also my soul. They truly care about every individual on a deeper level and meet you where you're at. It's a magical balance between group healing and customized, individual care. For me, the latter meant healing my whole family and helping me to rebuild connections with loved ones.
Now that I've transitioned home, my recovery continues, with ongoing support from the Momenta community and staff. I feel so connected and supported. The pain and void I tried to fill with addiction have been replaced by everyday joys and gratitude. My wish for anyone reading this is that you pause long enough to consider that 1) we are not bad people trying to get good; we are sick people trying to get healthy who need help 2) whatever the trauma, mental health, or addiction struggle, Momenta has the very BEST trained experts who can help 3) you have a life worth living and whatever it takes, at whatever cost, it's worth it.
With compassion,
JL
(PS- I swore I'd never ever be able to do 90 days and now I covet every. single. day. That's how long it takes for true transformation and it's worth it!)

“I came to Momenta with very little hope and even less desire to get better. After countless times in treatment, I didn’t initially think of myself as fortunate to have been given another chance, I just thought this was much better than a psych ward. However, I was met by love, compassion, grace, and understanding that I have never encountered before. In all my effort to push my therapists and the staff away, they continued to meet me where I was and provide exactly what I needed. No judgment, no condemnation, and no shame. My time at Momenta was filled with ups and downs as I returned to old patterns of manipulation and self-sabotage, even still they loved me through it, at times it was tough love, but it was what I needed. Momenta taught me that I wasn’t too far gone or unlovable, lies that I continued to tell myself. Momenta taught me that I could trust myself, that I am capable, that people actually want to be my friend not just take care of me when I’m in my disease, and that I could create a life that was worth living. Momenta has become my family. The team at Momenta has filled the gaps in my heart that I thought would always be empty. I have a mother and father figure, I have friends that are like sisters to me, and I have safe people in my life. I will forever be indebted to Momenta because I owe it to the entire team for saving my life and the lives of so many people I love. I am forever grateful”.

“When I came in to Momenta, I felt hopeless and unfixable. I believed that all treatment centers were the same, because I didn’t know any better, I can’t begin to explain how grateful I am that I ended up here and in such a warm and supportive embrace. All I needed and desperately wanted was a chance, and You gave it to me. I now believe that I really can and will do something amazing, spectacular, and fulfilling with this thing called life. Momenta has allowed and taught me how to be a person again—no longer an uninhabited shell. This place works, if you work for it. It’s such a bittersweet “see you later” [as I transition out of the program].”

“A year ago, a life of recovery did not seem possible, or even something I wanted. I didn’t want to get better. I had given up on life and I had resigned myself to living out my days in a dark, hazy, and numb existence. I couldn’t answer questions as to why I was poisoning myself, why I was so broken or why I couldn’t just quit substances and get my life together. After years of substance abuse and “unexplainable” depression, I felt completely lost and hopeless. The idea of going to a treatment center was terrifying.
My family was distraught and scared for me, which just added to all the shame and guilt that I had been building up over my lifetime. My mom had contacted Madison at Momenta and encouraged me to just have a conversation with her. That turned into many, many conversations at all times of the day over a period of weeks in which I tried to help myself and failed miserably, ultimately ending up in an emergency room in South America.
My mom and brother flew over to get me and take me to Momenta, they didn’t know what else to do with me and I was still denying that all of this was necessary.
I came into Momenta distrusting everyone and everything. The only reason I stayed was that I had nowhere else to go. I kept suicide in my back pocket, waiting for the staff to realize what I had been telling them – that I was “different” than everyone else and beyond help.
The first month was a painful beginning to my recovery in every way – physically, emotionally, and mentally. Looking back, it’s hard to believe that I made it past that difficult time, but gradually I came to trust that the unconditional love, support, and guidance from everyone at Momenta was genuine, and I ultimately surrendered to their process towards recovery. Dennis’ approach to therapy was unlike every other hour of therapy I had experienced before. His insights, while annoyingly accurate, led me to the beginnings of a life I never thought I could have. I learned that true sobriety is a chance to not only live without substances, but to live a life of integrity, curiosity, and compassion (for myself and others). I began to look at my shame and all my regrets more objectively, learning that in the past I was doing the best I could with the tools that I had at the time. This was a chance to process my experiences in a healthy way, gaining more tools towards recovery as I learned how to forgive myself and others so that I could move forward.
I didn’t believe Madison when she told me that the 90 days, I spent at Momenta would be the greatest gift I could give myself, or Dennis when he promised that I would walk away from Momenta with some lifelong friends and a support network I would never have imagined. I can say that delving into the work with the help and guidance from the staff and clients at Momenta has led to both things coming true for me. Now I wake up every day with a list of things I am grateful for and this weird sense of curiosity I lost along the way that continues to lead me to pursue both old and new passions.
My family and I will forever be grateful to everyone at Momenta for helping me discover a new way of life in recovery, and for the opportunity to participate and give back to this amazing community.”

“My children have their Mom back, I am mentally stable enough to help them through their struggles and show them how beautiful life is which also means I got custody back. Momenta’s healing program and loving home is a life saver and I am forever grateful that I was given the opportunity to be treated there. I have learned a lot about mental illness, substance abuse and trauma through their wonderful program and AA that I am now passionate about saving lives, educating others and being a mentor for women, so passionate that I am in the process of becoming an Addictions Counselor. Thank you, Momenta for giving me Hope, Strength and Love!”

“Before I found Momenta, I was a shell of myself. No sense of boundaries, self-worth, or priorities. With a life’s worth of traumas and not knowing how to cope with the emotions that were causing so much turmoil inside myself and my life, I turned to substances in attempt to ease my pain. It did not take long for the dynamic to switch, and soon they took over my life and made everything worse. Finding Momenta was my saving grace, and I knew after one phone call with Momenta I needed to, at the very least, try it. A few days later, I was on my way to Colorado. Upon arriving at Momenta, I was met with open arms and so much love and support that I never thought was possible—they love every part of me without conditions. During my time there I was taught how to identify, regulate, and control my emotions and was given the opportunity to begin to work through the trauma I endured and start down the path of healing my inner child. One of the most crucial things for me was learning about the disease of addiction and understanding how it took over my life and combated with learning how to live a life sober and thrive in a community where my life no longer revolves around substances. Momenta and every working part of it helped save my life and I’ll forever be grateful for its existence. I would recommend Momenta to any woman who is struggling with mental health or substance abuse. I would not be where I am in life now without the continuous love and support with which the staff at Momenta has provided me and so many other women.”

“After trying and failing to get clean for the better part of a decade, I was fortunate enough to land at Momenta Recovery in 2019. To this day, it remains the one place I happily think of as "home." The entire staff, both clinical and administrative, are so loving and passionate about what they do, and they offer nothing but compassion and care to the women they serve. Momenta has proven instrumental in my recovery, and I truly believe that it is because of them and what they have built that I am still sober today. I am so lucky to have had the opportunity not only to be a part of their beautiful program, but to have met so many incredible people who I know will be a part of my life forever.”

“Before I share about my personal (incredible experience) at Momenta I would first like to address the negative reviews left by 4 people (all reflecting 1 persons experience) because they nearly prevented me from coming to the most remarkable healing journey I have embarked on to date. I do not doubt or question that what was shared was how they felt their experience was for them. I will also say that having been through Momenta and experienced love, honesty, rigorous reflection and hard work as a result of what was discovered within, I can honestly say, that if someone is asked to leave it is for both the safety of the the fellow women in residence as well as acknowledging that Momenta has tried every reasonable path to help the individual and it is no longer in their best interest to stay there, whatever the reason may be. That is very comforting to me.
So please do not let one persons experience deter you from finding the healing, peace, love and (for me the most crucial piece of the experience) only authentic sense of Safety I’ve ever known.
I came to Momenta broken beyond all recognition. I truly was unable to discern what was real from what was not real. I had been numbing a lifetime of traumas (big and small) with substances which “worked” until they didn’t. When I initially went, I figured if I can just deal with my traumas in a healthy way then I won’t have issues with addiction. For me, I came to discover that was not my truth. Instead I learned that getting better wasn’t simply a matter of dealing with my traumas, getting “sober” or just dealing with life better.
Recovery is a journey that one must choose every day and if one does, Momenta is a beautiful place to get started on it. There I learned to love and trust myself for the first time. I learned what a healthy community looked and felt like for the first time and how much I enjoyed and need it in my life. I learned that life is going to keep throwing hard things at you regardless of whether you are on this journey or not, but with the right tools and support it is much easier to get through. I lost my mom unexpectedly half way through and had to leave for a brief time to attend to that. Every day, every step of the way, I was held, loved, supported and NEVER FELT ALONE through one of the most painful experiences of my life. I can not fathom how I would have gotten through that and remained sober without the people and principles taught at Momenta.
Since completing my 90 days at Momenta life has continued to be difficult, challenging, uncertain and frustrating. However, I now get to experience it fully which includes being present, feeling not just the hard but the beautiful moments too. I am discovering a playfulness within myself that had long since been shoved out of sight and am trustful that it is safe to do so as often as I choose. I am learning how to use my voice in effective ways. So many tools I was not only taught but was able to practice so that when it comes time to use them in “real life” it doesn’t feel intimidating but empowering.
I could go on and on, but this is already too long as it is and I would rather you just call and speak with any one on staff there about any questions or concerns you have about attending. You will be so glad you did. Even if you decide Momenta isn’t right for you, I would be willing to bet, you will have a life changing phone conversation at the very least. Yes, Momenta is that amazing from start to finish. Except there is no finish. Once you are there, you are family. Period.”

“I never thought I would be able to say that I am a woman in recovery. I thought I would be “broken” forever. The shame that I carried when I arrived at Momenta was instantly met with kindness, acceptance and understanding. I was a mess, but they loved me through it. We figured it out together. Momenta did everything he could to make sure I got the help that I needed and continues to offer me support. I knew Momenta was the place for me to heal as soon as I met him. Madison took me under her wing and made me feel comfortable and helped me with all the logistics. The whole staff was so welcoming and empathetic - and damn good at what they do. Abby and Dennis helped me face some dark traumas, walking through them with me and still help me today. Cath, the adventure coordinator, was like a second mother to me. She showed extra care by taking me on hikes in the mornings. Sheri, the art counselor, and equine therapy helped me step into my truth. Momenta not only got me sober, but this place showed me that I am enough and helped me fully believe it. To say my life has been changed in an understatement and I will be forever grateful.”

“Dear Momenta
Tomorrow is 365 days since I arrived in grand junction airport, shattered to pieces. I keep thinking how I can recognize this day in my life and the first thing that comes to mind is thanking everyone at Momenta.
You took a heart that was so broken and showed me there are still pieces inside which can be hole. There are still pieces that deserve love, family, and connection.
You displayed so much patience, love and affection and always made me feel like I had a place. I won't ever forget "display curiosity instead of judgment", and that I have a family in Glenwood.
On my roughest days, I know I can reach out and there are people who support me. I feel like you have my back whether I'm in contact or not.
I still have such fond memories which I hold so close to me, of riding a horse for the first time, my transition, taking photos, and rock climbing. Each of these things made me feel like I had a value, and I was part of something.
I guess what I want to say thank you for showing me even in the darkest times there is some light. Someone who cares, someone who can listen.
I also want to specially thank the techs as they probably have the hardest job, but they really helped me by being there for me, speaking to me, encouraging to me, or just displaying friendship.
I love you all and I hope this displays at least some of the gratitude I feel.”

“Dear Momenta,
I remember my first day at Momenta. I was wrapped up in a fluffy white blanket, covering my entire body and head and I was checking out the house. Your office door was open, so I introduced myself and asked you to be my primary therapist. I had heard from the other girls in the house that you were the meanest one there and I thought that I needed to be beat down in order to get better. Little did I know that you would be my rock and the one who built me up, even though I fought you on literally everything.
Thank you for caring enough, putting up with me and loving me for who I am. Thank you for teaching me how to live life on life's terms. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me whenever I was falling apart or just needed a listening ear. You would stop whatever you were in the middle of, to help me deal with whatever I was struggling with.
Thank you for giving me tough love and calling me out on my shit (when you found out about it). Thank you for making me laugh. Thank you for making me cry. Thank you for taking me places I was so scared to go to but needed to go to in order to heal. Thank you for helping me change my perspective on life. Happiness cannot be bought with a shopping spree to Nordstrom or even diamond earrings, but having close connections with people and letting them see me for who I truly am. The good, the bad, and all the colors in between.
I would not have stayed in Momenta if it weren’t for you. I don’t know how many times I told you that I was leaving. I was so hopeless and in such a deep dark hole of depression, that I thought even rehab couldn’t help me. You would talk me through my racing thoughts and my anxious mind. You would suggest I stay a little longer to try and figure out why I came here in the first place and what was holding me back in life and not allowing me to move forward.
You were the one who gave me hope that my life didn’t need to continue in the direction it was going. Thank you for making me feel supported and less alone. I feel blessed to have met you and grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you. You helped me switch the way I think and see the world in beautiful color, instead of grey and bleak. I learned that when I change my perspective, my whole reality changes, because our reality is our perception.
I can end off with saying that you saved my life, but the truth is you didn’t. You supported me, loved me, listened to me, coached me, hugged me, believed in me, and helped carry my burden of pain, sadness, and depression. You gave me the biggest gift by giving me your time. You worked with me day in and day out until I got to a place where I wanted to save my own life and start living instead of just barely surviving. For the first time in my life I have hope that my life is worth living and I can do anything I put my mind to, as long as I’m willing to put in the work.”

“How do I get all the thoughts, feelings, and gratitude for Momenta into one testimonial? I simply cannot. To say that I owe my life to the soul that is Momenta is a complete understatement. The love I received was something I had never experienced in my life. It started with talking with Momenta on the phone at my darkest hours - it was the thing I needed to know that I deserved another chance at life and to choose Momenta as the place I would attempt to get it. My day of arrival was met with open, gentle, kind, and loving arms by the staff. My first session with a therapist, Dennis, was the safest I had ever felt, exploring how I was feeling inside and able to share freely, vulnerably, and feeling fully understood. The staff pushed me to explore everything I had ever believed in my life. They encouraged me to be curious, fearless, to have fun, to be sad, to be mad, to really get to know who I am. They taught me how to surrender and stop fighting everything in my life. It was fun, it was difficult, it was exhausting, it was maddening at times. I finally learned what serenity and peace feels like for the first time in my life. But it was the love that I was shown that is most meaningful. True compassion, understanding, and care for their clients – I am teary eyed even writing this because it was and is truly beautiful. Momenta saved my life, and for that I am eternally grateful.”

“I arrived at Momenta Recovery distrustful of the Drug Rehabilitation Industry, and hugely skeptical of my own ability to heal. I was still in denial about the severity of my dependence, and completely unaware of the ways in which my life’s traumas had impacted the way I felt, thought, and behaved. With strong encouragement from my family, I agreed to enroll in treatment—at the time, perhaps only to ease the concern of my loved ones.
Over the course of my 90 day residential stay, I slowly began to come into my own mind and body again. I began to understand the reasons I needed to escape using drugs and alcohol, gradually learning to forgive myself for the painful life experiences I had endured which I had no control over.
Several years prior to my admission, I underwent the process of losing and regaining my vision. After a slew of eye surgeries and a year of complete blindness, I was finally able to see, in one eye, in a limited capacity. I can compare my experience with Momenta to this period of my life. When I admitted, I was functioning in the world in a similarly limited capacity. I could partially see and understand myself as though I was viewing my life through a pane of frosted glass. I could make out the shapes and colors of my existence, but with no definition or clarity. I did not know there was more to my experience and my behaviors than I was able to perceive. As I continued to work, I began to unveil the hidden parts of myself that I had forgotten existed. The frosted glass pane slowly lifted, and I became able to see with undeniable resolution the how and why of my behaviors and addictions. Through this newfound window, I saw myself again. I redeveloped the true “me” I had lost to a shroud of trauma and isolation.
Thank you, Momenta, for the gift of clarity, sobriety, and self-love. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me find myself again.”

MARCH 2022
A year ago I had lost all hope, I didn’t see a light at the end of the tunnel. I was suffering from Severe Depression and PTSD. The intense, overwhelming sadness had taken the joy out of life, it had become unbearable and I couldn’t live with the mental pain any longer. There had been a lot of deaths in my family on my Moms side, my Aunt, Uncle, Grandfather and cousins committed suicide after suffering from trauma which lead to mental illness and substance abuse. Little did I know how much that had an effect on me and that depression might be a genetic thing that I had to battle my whole life. After growing up with some mental abuse, control and unhealthy love I then landed myself in a 17 year mentally abusive relationship/Marriage that had to end, children were involved and it broke my heart knowing there was no other way than out.
So on top of the depression came guilt, shame and fear. I then lost temporary custody of my children, no Mother can handle that kind of trauma. I could no longer carry the weight of these intense emotions so I felt the only way out was to die, I had no hope that I could or would ever feel joy so I tried to take my life, my parents found me unconscious and without a pulse. They called the paramedics, I was able to be revived and remember waking up in the hospital angry as hell that the suicide attempt didn’t work, why? because the overwhelming sadness was still there. I was then placed in a Mental Health hospital for 7 days where I received medication and therapy, 7 days does not heal years and years of trauma so when I was released I still had overwhelming sadness, fear, shame and guilt.
Again, i couldn’t live like that, there was still no hope so I tried to commit suicide a second time, this time the physical pain was excruciating, I couldn’t suffer through it for 5 more minutes so I called 911 and they arrived right as i stopped breathing, I was in the ICU for 5 days and had lost all function from my waist down which landed me in a wheel chair for 7 days, I was then placed in a Mental hospital again for 5 days only to be transferred to another hospital for 10 more days, after the release of my 3rd mental hospital visit my family knew I couldn’t just be sent home I had to go to a long term treatment center otherwise a 3rd attempt would of been a success, they knew that somewhere deep inside was a loving, caring, kind hearted woman that needed saving, this is when my family found Momenta Recovery, a trauma based treatment center for women in Beautiful, Glenwood Springs.
I arrived at the program scared to death, leaving everything and everyone behind desperate to find healing. I almost gave up on the program after the first night because I was told I had to attend AA, I was not an alcoholic or addict so I instantly felt that this was not going to work for me, then, I met Dennis, Moment’s Clinical Director and Therapist, after a long talk with him I decided to stay a week and give the program a try, I also demanded that he be my primary because I felt that he understood me more than any other therapist had. After a week of doing group therapy, individual therapy, AA and meeting other women with similar issues I started to feel that this might work so I stayed and after 3 weeks I felt a ton of weight lifted from my shoulders, I started to gain strength and hope so I stayed for 45 days and can joyfully and honestly say that Momenta’s program saved my life, I am the healthiest and happiest I have ever been, I found myself again, I learned tools to help me through life's greatest obstacles, I was shown what true, healthy love is and now I know how to give it and feel worthy of receiving it.
My children have their Mom back, I am mentally stable enough to help them through their struggles and show them how beautiful life is which also means I got custody back. Momenta’s healing program and loving home is a life saver and I am forever grateful that I was given the opportunity to be treated there. I have learned a lot about mental illness, substance abuse and trauma through their wonderful program and AA that I am now passionate about saving lives, educating others and being a mentor for women, so passionate that I am in the process of becoming an Addictions Counselor. Thank you, Momenta for giving me Hope, Strength and Love!
Forever grateful

“My wife was admitted to a facility in Denver a few months prior to Momenta. The effects from the Denver facility lasted 2 days. I’m proud to say that it’s been more than 6 months now since she’s had a drink. The experience was completely different. I felt included from the start. I attended classes at the end of the month. I was able to visit on weekends and was made to feel welcome and at home. On top of everything else they went to bat for us with our insurance company. They worked to make sure we would be covered even when the insurance company said no. She still participates regularly with an outpatient support group. If you’re ready to change your life, the people at momenta will treat you with respect and professionalism. They really care!”

“I am not exaggerating when I say that Momenta saved my life. The staff are kind, gentle, and most importantly, understanding. The balance of trauma therapy, group therapy, and physical exercise was essential to my healing. I recommend Momenta for anyone suffering from addiction and/or mental health issues.”
