I didn't end up coming here, but they (Debbie, in particular) were so helpful in answering a ZILLION questions I had and helping me get all set up to go. I was traveling and they were willing to pick me up at the airport and everything. My prescriptions must come from a certain place and they were willing to accommodate that. They were willing to give everything I needed. While I didn't attend, the facility seemed like it was going to be great! I don't have anything negative to say about it. And they made the arrangements INCREDIBLY easy. I can't 100% recommend it having never gone, but I'd definitely say to put it on your list. They seemed incredible. Less

I’m so grateful for my experience at The Wave in Clearwater—it has been much better than I ever anticipated. The therapy here is truly the heart of the program, and it’s exceptional. The therapists are skilled, compassionate, and incredibly supportive, which is why I’ve decided to extend my stay. The tech staff is equally amazing—each and every one of them goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and cared for. The senior management is actively involved, approachable, and always available if needed. They create a welcoming and safe environment where you feel almost at home. The accommodations are excellent, with private rooms, shared bathrooms, and a very clean facility overall. I highly recommend The Wave for anyone seeking a supportive, therapeutic space to focus on healing and growth. This version is polished and captures your positive experience in a way that would stand out as a thoughtful review. Let me know if you’d like to add or change anything! Less

I had every intention of attending the inpatient program at The Wave and was working closely with Debbie, who was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding about both my needs and my concerns regarding the process. After some thoughtful reflection, I decided to postpone, realizing that committing to 30 days of inpatient care isn't feasible for me at this time for several personal reasons. However, thanks to Debbie's exceptional support throughout this process, I am confident that I will be working with her on alternative options, such as an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) or perhaps Partial Hospitalization (PHP), which may better suit my current situation. And when the time is right, I will consider inpatient care again. I cannot express enough gratitude for Debbie's guidance in helping me navigate this decision. With staff like her, it's clear why The Wave has such a stellar reputation. I look forward to meeting the rest of the team soon. Less

I'm on my last week of the Residential portion of The Wave. This is a long review, I know, but for what The Wave has done in 3 weeks, they deserve every word. I was nervous, didn't know what to expect, or even how to arrange my cats would be taken care of. My insurance company actually referred me based on looking them up while checking coverage. I'd been asking for over a year from my pyschiatrist and gotten no where. From the first moment I spoke with Debbie many months ago, I knew that of i could make it work she would be the one to help me. I wasn't able to get in when I wanted for various reasons, but Debbie was always there. She cared about my wellbeing more than getting a new patient. Two years after my life changed forever, The Wave, it's team, and my fellow participants from each level of the program, have again changed my life. This change was for the better. I hand never felt as good as I do now. I now have people who understand me and support me. Some will truly be friends for life. The therapist i was assigned to is perfect for me and my needs. The psychiatrist takes an interest in you as a whole, seriously considers medicine before she makes any decisions on prescribing anything. As a resident the pampering you get access to is amazing! Haircut, nails, massage.... all included. Fun outings are planned for the weekend and grocery during the week. After next week I transfer to the PHP program, you live at home, but come to the facility each day M-F 9:30-5 for the group sessions. I can't praise Debbie enough for her support throughout the process, the decision, and sometimes just the need to talk. She and everyone at The Wave have given me help and more importantly hope in knowing who I am and what I'm worth. Less

I am not at all ashamed to say that I have been an inpatient resident at the Wave twice. I went in March of ‘23 for PPD and PPA. I was not ready to do the hard work and I spent my time unwisely. I left the program completed but I was angry and frustrated all the time - and that was on ME. I just completed my second stay. I emailed Kathy and Karen, who I knew from before - and within an hour I received a kind and loving email saying of course you can come back. I hope people read this and know what a special thing that happened then, because that email kept me from going through with a plan that would have devastated all of those I love. It saved my life the same as if you shocked a flatline back to life. I entered broken and so very sick and suffering. Every single person there loved me through 35 of the hardest but most healing and beautiful days of my life. The women there, the staff, are the most amazing people in this field. Unfortunately I know that from other experiences. THEY are the gold standard. THANK you and I love you, too: Karen 🫂 , Kathy 🙌🏻, Debbie, Kristin, Jodi 🌭 Ann 💫 , DOCTOR Raisa Jill, Shelby 💃🏽 , Nouel 🧘‍♀️ , Lorrina, Lauren, Judy, Sandy 💚 , Noelle, Tina 💙 , Jenna, Toni 👓 Tiff, Jen, Dawn, Susan, Bre, Megan 💜, Marcae, Akhila, JAYDAH!!, and I know I’m missing some - but every single one. I walked in broken and I left, whole again, with a positive and loving energy, brave enough to face anything. I am eternally grateful. Less

I’ve been given back my life with happiness, I was shown so much love and kindness from staff, therapists, clinical staff and nurses, i left there yesterday in tears of happiness, I’ve had over 50 plus years of abuse and seen my brother murder and they helped me through my trauma, I can’t put into words the gratitude I have for them, my sisters whom I call them they are the TECHS are amazing and strong with their support, I’ll recommend riding the wave to anyone I know !
