Carlbrook has an excellent therapeutic staff, and with some hard work, your kid will understand the underlying issues that led him or her to medicate with drugs. Drug/alcohol abuse is a symptom of something else, and Carlbrook is pretty good at getting at what that might be.
I do agree that a lot of the hard-core drug abusers DID go back to using drugs post-Carlbrook, but did have the tools to understand their choices and, hopefully, in the future, change their patterns.
