Early in my admission Yolande told me that Papillon loves you until you love yourself, and I truly believe that this statement perfectly encompasses the mentality Papillon staff have towards mental illness and recovery.

I have been in multiple different facilities in multiple different countries, and I can say that the approach both the therapy team and management take is like no other, curating the program to fit everyone’s individual needs.

I am incredibly grateful to the entire team for having helped me through one of my lowest points in life, and the continuous support they show.

The road to recovery is never an easy one. Believe it or not , we all have a predisposition to some vulnerability and/or illness. One should never feel ashamed of herein. The therapeutic team here at Papillon, right up to the owner herself are hands on and committed in one's healing and recovery journey. Each client is treated with respect and dignity . The program is one of if not the best program for preparing you for the best life to create for your self

Papillon has a philosophy of not classifying yourself according to your mental illness. The experience taught me not to live by labels but by my individuality. I have developed spiritually, mentally, and emotionally from the programme because of their unique approach. Thank you, Papillon Recovery Centre.!!!

Having ever been to a Facility such as this, or even staying in a Hostel, I didn't know what to expect. Upon arrival, the first thing I thought was: "I will never enter Survivor, because I will not survive". After a couple of weeks though, I realized that I can survive anything! Power comes from within. Everyone is blessed in unique ways. Papillon makes you realize this. Strength is inside everyone waiting to be discovered. You cannot run from your past and the mistakes you made. You can learn from them though and this means owning it! The Team at Papillon are wonderful and made me realize that there is in fact always a light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes you just need to change your perspective. You can if you really want to and the Team at Papillon motivates you to want to. Thank you for helping me. Thank you for the guidance. Thank you to all the Team Members for being who they are. This was an experience that changed my life. I might just come back for a Holiday! Blessings.

I was told when I entered treatment at Papillon that I was as unique as my fingerprint. The programme helped me find out how to use my uniqueness to live a better life and one that fulfils me. Professionals at the centre show compassion and understanding that I have not encountered anywhere else. I really understand why the logo says: Love, Respect, Recovery.!!!

I had severe depression for many months and hospital stays treated me medically but not as a whole person. The three months I spent at the centre helped me find out who I am as a person and where my strengths lie. I have been stable for over a year since I left Papillon - I still attend the free aftercare which has helped me tremendously. The Saturday family groups have assisted my family as much as the programme helped me.!!

Through mental illness, I lived in the past of what it was like being in corporate world. The independent lady I was, empowered and reasonably accepted by the society. The illness that convinced me that there was absolutely nothing wrong with me, yet I was feeling helpless, overwhelmed, anxious, sad, and rather depressed because of a family that wasn’t even mine. A journey that let me homeless because I was no longer fitting in the norm. Straight from Akeso Crescent Clinic, I joined Papillion Recovery Centre and through their support I was able to really recover to move on or regain my life back. To all the ill and the fallen due to mental illness, recovery is a state of mind.
