Diamond Ranch Academy

it was the hardest thing to send my daughter to dra, but it has been worth it. She's been home for about 8 months and everything has changed. she sees things more clearly because they taught her to value herself, and to be her best self. she went directly to college from dra so she never really got back with the crowd she left, and there's been a few upsets but she now has the tools and experience to pull herself back up and regain control without us trying to control her or nag her. She is her own person! and on top of the world!! xmas this year was the best because we were together and she WANTED to be there. Thank you Nate and DRA!!

The staff here are truly AMAZING! They took so much time with me. I was addicted to weed. Such a simple drug, my friends and I just did it for kicks when we were chilling together, but one day I realized it controlled my life. I couldn't go without it. They worked with me. They helped me realize where this all began and worked with me to bring it to an end. They were understanding, non-judgmental, and straight up. Their kindness has made me the person I am today. THANK YOU!! Diamond Ranch, I will never forget you. <3

DRA literally saved my life. I was in such a dark place, but the therapy is actually what really helped me. They didn't pressure me to share anything I wasn't up to - we took it at my pace. Which wasn't quick, but it was progressive. Eventually, I was healthy enough to be on my own again. I haven't turned back to drugs since. I don't know if everyone else goes through DRA at the same speed I did, but while it was a long process, it was a permanent solution. They made sure that I was really okay before sending me out into the world again, and I've been able to resist temptation because of the help they gave me. I'm so grateful! Without them, who knows where I'd be now? It scares me to even think about it!

I am a former student at DRA This is the WORST place to bring your child! PARENTS BEWARE OF THE ABUSE AND NEGLECT YOUR CHILDREN ARE BEING FORCED TO LIE TO YOU ABOUT THEIR TREATMENT. The owners are money hungry and not in it to provided healthy stability for the children. The therapy is a joke and most of the people that are on the staff act more like military personel vs people trying to give a helping hand. I have seen 3 teens try to kill theirselves in this place, I have watched the owner req a staff member to restrain a student (the student nose got broken, blood pouring everywhere) and Rob Dias sat their and cussed and screamed (you feel like a big man now! I bet that hurts huh?) BEWARE! PLEASE DO MORE RESEARCH!
