Success Stories

“After eight years of mental health treatments, and a two year struggle with substance abuse, our son had recently attempted to take his own life. During those eight years, our son saw four psychiatrists, five psychologists, six therapists, two MD's, we implemented all their recommendations, and life just kept getting harder. I wasn't holding my breath that DynamiCare would be any different from several programs we had tried before, but I called and got an appointment, and I'm beyond grateful that I did. I have been speaking with my DynamiCare Family Partner weekly ever since. I have found her support, encouragement, and advice to be more helpful than any previous provider (and we've seen a lot!). Eventually, my son recovered enough to be discharged. He was immediately set up with a Recovery Coach to help him work through the numerous tools DynamiCare offers, like therapy modules, testing, and financial incentives. We are now seeing improvements that we've never seen in him. He is attaching actions with consequences or rewards better than ever, and I think that is a direct result of this program. I had almost lost hope that we would ever see steps in the right direction, so I'm beyond grateful for everyone behind DynamiCare.”

“I've never defined myself as an alcoholic, but I have definitely identified some problem drinking behaviors. When looking for help, It didn’t seem like there were options for someone like me. So when I heard about DynamiCare, I decided to give it a shot.

Now, I’d recommend DynamiCare to others trying to moderate or quit drinking. DynamiCare was the first proactive step I’ve taken to actually doing something about my drinking, and it triggered a completely new mindset regarding my relationship to alcohol.”

“I would recommend it… I do recommend it. What DynamiCare did for me was to empower me to participate in my recovery. To grow my self-esteem back to where I was someone who could look in the mirror, who could actually be there when I said I was going to be there, for myself and for other people.”

-Richard K., DynamiCare Member

“It made me more accountable and responsible. I was missing a lot of groups and now I'm up to 90% attended. I don’t want to mess up my streak now!”

“I need somebody behind me. The app kind of filled that role for me.”

“I love DynamiCare. It really helped me. And as far as the money — did I do it for the money? And I’m just being honest. It’s not like they’re giving you a boatload of money at one time. But when you can look at your attendance and see that your attendance is up and you’re doing everything that you’re supposed to and you have all of your CBT stuff all going in the right direction, you see it right there. You can kind of give yourself a pat on the back.”

“I like the surveys. They have helped me take a look at me in a way I couldn't actually put it into words. And I could understand just what it is that I was going through and I saw that I wasn't alone. That was the biggest thing, because I used to think that I was alone. It was saying exactly some of the stuff that I was feeling and didn't know quite how to bring it all together. Because for a long time I didn't know what was happening to me. and I used to think that I was crazy. But I realize I wasn't. And that was good for me. This place has given me me back.”

-ERNEST, dynamicare member

“I like it. I really do. It has been a great motivator for me knowing that there is something on the other side of the rainbow. It was like a private secretary for me. So I didn't forget. It keeps you on point.”

“DynamiCare has proven to be very successful for us in further improving our outcomes for patients with Substance Use Disorder — specifically opioids. We are seeing high utilization of the CBT modules as well as greater reductions in drug use and higher attendance of therapy sessions. Combined with our biopsychosocial program (which includes MAT when indicated), this platform will help to keep us on the cutting edge of treatment and technology while improving outcomes.”

"I was a skeptic at first, but DynamiCare has changed this program. The clients are more engaged. They used to sit around the house all day, now they are out in the community, reconnecting with family, going to the gym, and multiple AA/NA meetings a week. I can see the difference in our own metrics, they stay sober for longer and we have more successful graduates completing the program."
