Pathlight is where the bar should be set for mental health services. Prior to their services my child had been to four different local facilities for mental health treatment. All four basically plunked my kid in front of a TV with coloring book pages until the clock ran out on insurance approval and they were "discharged" from care. At my wit's end, Pathlight was recommended. From the moment we stepped through the door, everything was different from our other experiences and we knew our child...

Pathlight is where the bar should be set for mental health services. Prior to their services my child had been to four different local facilities for mental health treatment. All four basically plunked my kid in front of a TV with coloring book pages until the clock ran out on insurance approval and they were "discharged" from care. At my wit's end, Pathlight was recommended. From the moment we stepped through the door, everything was different from our other experiences and we knew our child would get the help they needed. Pathlight saved my child's life and gave them skills they will be able to use throughout their lifetime. I highly recommend them to anyone I know who is facing mental health challenges.

I went to pathlight many many times- back when it was called insight (around 2017 to 2018), and even more recently back in like 2022. I was treated as a minor in 2017 and felt so disrespected and unheard. They relayed everything I said in therapy to my mom, so I never felt safe there. Additionally I had problems following the rules of the program bc I had made friends there, the rules were very unclear and vague- and my 15 yr old brain didn’t understand why I wasn’t allowed to talk to the peo...

I went to pathlight many many times- back when it was called insight (around 2017 to 2018), and even more recently back in like 2022. I was treated as a minor in 2017 and felt so disrespected and unheard. They relayed everything I said in therapy to my mom, so I never felt safe there. Additionally I had problems following the rules of the program bc I had made friends there, the rules were very unclear and vague- and my 15 yr old brain didn’t understand why I wasn’t allowed to talk to the people I liked bc they didn’t want “cliques” to form. They basically ended up sending me to a residential care place bc I didn’t feel motivated to participate anymore (which is breaking another rule) and was forced to stay in a borderline cult (residential care) for four months. I fully believe that insight sent me to residential without my consent just bc I didn’t follow the rules that they never mentioned before I broke them. When I was in residential I was treated like an inmate at a prison, I was only allowed one call once a week to my mom and was forcibly isolated from others so I could “get better.” Like I’m not kidding I wasn’t allowed to talk to anyone in my unit, go outside, do anything other than fill out therapy worksheets, for over two weeks as a punishment for refusing to talk in a group. I do want to comment though that path light does not run the residential place I was in- it’s just the main place they advice parents to put their kids in. After I had gotten out of residential I was put back into IOP at insight and basically said and did whatever they wanted me to so I could go back to school like a normal kid, and be allowed to hang out w my non-therapy friends again. Anyways, I went to pathlight twice I think once in 2020 and in 2022, both times I had to leave right when I felt I was making progress. Back in 2020 they helped in getting out of an abusive relationship (which I got in right when I got out of IOP in 2018 lol) but ultimately I went back to my abuser. In 2022 I went to path light to try to work on my trauma, but didn’t really get anything out of it. They basically told me coping skills I already had drilled in my brain, and then just kind expected me to move on. Overall I hate this place and don’t recommend coming here for your kid EVER, but as an adult in the program it was okay. It may have not been effective for me bc I wasn’t diagnosed w autism at that point, and also I have severe medical trauma. But it might work for people who haven’t ever done group therapy or just don’t know much about therapy.

From the very beginning, this place has been such a blessing. My child was in the PHP program and has really been given support and been equipped to help him become more stable. They really communicate well with parents and invite parents along in the process of healing. Everyone from the intake assessor, to individual therapist, to psychiatrist has been so kind, helpful, and supportive. I cannot say enough good things about Pathlight. They have given us hope!

I came here back around 2018 right before the pandemic happened, and it was called "Insight". The program was great back then, I felt like I learned a lot, and the program was very well organized.
I went back here last month, and it was a chaotic mess. None of the therapists seemed to be on the same page, and they decided they didn't want to deal with me anymore so they kicked me out.

Which is great considering I struggle with SI, and was struggling a bit the previous week. Very professional of them to kick me out because I was struggling, and then because they had recommended I go to residential even though I felt like IOP would be a better fit for me at the time they just dropped me out of the blue even though one of the therapists I spoke to was agreeing with me and thought that would be a good fit for me, then all of the sudden at the end of the day I have another therapist pull me aside and tell me that they it was going to be my last day. Very unprofessional environment, no structure, and neglectful staff. Very displeased with my experience here especially for the price I can't even afford. I would not recommend "Pathlight" in the condition it is in at this moment.

Right intentions, poor delivery.
It kills me to have to give Pathlight less than 5 stars because I truly feel most of the staff are doing their absolute best, I had an incredible journey there as a PHP patient, made beautiful connections with group members as well as staff members… HOWEVER, it must be noted that: by the beginning of my 4th week there I hadn’t even started the trauma treatment I was supposed to be engaging in, my primary therapist went on vacation and while she was out of town...

Right intentions, poor delivery.
It kills me to have to give Pathlight less than 5 stars because I truly feel most of the staff are doing their absolute best, I had an incredible journey there as a PHP patient, made beautiful connections with group members as well as staff members… HOWEVER, it must be noted that: by the beginning of my 4th week there I hadn’t even started the trauma treatment I was supposed to be engaging in, my primary therapist went on vacation and while she was out of town and I had zero support, I was discharged with no warning due to a peer view conducted between one of my drs and my insurance.
It’s my understanding that essentially the decision is on my insurance to remove me from the PHP level of care (which I very desperately needed), however, it seems this decision was made due to an overestimation of my progress, it’s not fully clear to me, but it seems the notes provided by my team gave off the impression that I no longer needed that level of treatment, which is a gross overlook considering I had reported levels of S.I every single day while attending PHP.
Furthermore, when I decided to request an appeal from their decision (which most staff I had interacted with agreed was very poor timing in my case) I was highly discouraged to do so and instead pushed to step down into IOP level - this means going from 2 / 3 times a week seeing a therapist to only once, and going from having access to a psychiatrist to none at all…
I should mention I was on 6+ mood stabilizing meds at that point having just started a new one literally the day before having psychiatric help removed.
Nonetheless, I trusted the Pathlight team and followed their advice.. my only request was to please be partnered with a therapist that can begin the treatment I was set to do in PHP - I was promised that at the very least.
Upon entering IOP level of care I was met with the harsh reality that not only would I have to be making appointments to meet with my therapist outside of IOP hours, but also, none of the therapists available during IOP were trained in the specific treatment I needed, or even trained to deal with patients with trauma or struggling with suicidal ideation.
I felt awful for the therapist I was assigned to, since I was clearly a case out of her league or level of experience - I could tell she felt overwhelmed by my need for higher level of care and I was able to tell she was not equipped to help me (not her fault at all and I want to say she did her very best and for that I’ll be forever grateful).
I wound up leaving Pathlight after experiencing an extreme level of regression and disappointment.
I hate to admit to feeling let down because I have faith everyone did the best they could, I guess my review is to
1) advise future patients to be on top of their insurance / peer review and advocate for themselves as prudently as possible. And
2) warn Pathlight of the impact these situations will have on their clients, I have not been able to stabilize since then and have almost lost my life multiple times at this point due to not having access to my medications cold turkey as well as not having the proper level of treatment for the condition I was in.
Unrelated to treatment, I also think it’s important to note to both Pathlight and future patients as far as the FACILITY ITSELF: cleanliness definitely needs work & AC does not work properly in the building.
Besides any negative feedback I still would like to take the opportunity to thank the Pathlight staff for all they’ve done for me and my peers, it’s not an easy job and I know sometimes things go wrong. Thank you Kate, Taylor, Felice and Amanda for your wonderful support (truly amazing, insightful counselors).
Thank you Alex for doing your very best with the huge task you were given. Thank you for doing your due diligence even when I skipped town on ya 🫣
If you’re considering Pathlight I would certainly recommend it, I just would be doing everyone a disservice if I did not share my honest experience there!

I went here a few times from 2017 to 2019 and ill be honest it saved my life. There are a ton of strict rules there that are set up to prevent people from being triggered, such as discussing eating and talking about drug use in any form. Every single time I hated it my first few weeks but after learning to follow the rules and actually starting to put forth effort I learned to tolerate it.

I went here a few times from 2017 to 2019 and ill be honest it saved my life. There are a ton of strict rules there that are set up to prevent people from being triggered, such as discussing eating and talking about drug use in any form. Every single time I hated it my first few weeks but after learning to follow the rules and actually starting to put forth effort I learned to tolerate it. Its never going to be “fun” but it’s necessary to a lot of people including myself at the time who ran out of all other options. One of the main aspects they focused on was boundaries, which I took to heart after a while as it shows you how to have a healthy relationship with someone which i struggled with at the time. There are some staff members from my experiences that weren't great but personally I never saw anything close to abuse which was a big issue at some of the other facilities such as the psych ward in Georgetown. The staff members that weren't great just simply didn't put forth enough effort at times but never had any bad intentions. all in all this program truly did save my life as my substance abuse and suicidal thoughts were crippling at the time to the point where I didnt know if i’d survive another year. I was going down a very dark path and being surrounded with a very large support network to help work through some of these issues was incredible. It took me a year or two to truly appreciate my stay’s there but looking back now it was one of the best things to ever happen to me. This program isn't for everyone, its a serious commitment to do this much therapy and some people simply could do without this level of care depending on the severity of their issues but as someone who was in need of serious help it was life changing.

this place was absolutely horrible. i went there when it was still Insight around 2017 which was for mental health and eating disorder treatment. we weren't allowed to talk about food AT ALL, even just saying the word "pizza" wasn't allowed. it might be different for others, but this doesn't help ED recovery and further stigmatizes food, in turn making it a more sensitive topic. i felt ignored because i wasn't "as bad" as other people around me. the therapist i had gaslit me into thinking i h...
