  The inpatient and out patient services are truly amazing and life saving. As someone who had done both and still uses the outpatient I’m beyond satisfied with how my treatment is going. Both my therapist and psychiatrist actually listen, ask clarifying questions and don’t leave me feeling unseen or invalidated. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat.

  So bad on so many levels if you have a eating disorder do not go into inpatient treatment they treat you like a animal , I went in Telling them I had multiple human disorders, including binge eating disorder and they did not treat my bed disorder , I even had to ask them to change my discharge plan to have treatment for the binge eating, which I was never given , even when I asked for help on how to eat like a normal person ,they were confused and told me they can’t help with that. They only treat Restricting Ed’s. Because of that, I was finishing all my meals. It showed them in quotations that I was safe to leave even though telling me I need a residential help. My insurance denied them and then they immediately kicked me out after saying I needed a residential help but was randomly that day fine enough to leave,,??? Then when I was leaving they kept asking me if I was ok to leave and if I wanted to hurt myself which I did answer many times the day of discharge that I still have Idealizations. All the workers treat you differently based on how they view their work and rules so even though to them, it’s just work but to me it’s my life that they just keep telling me yes or no , It was very stressful. I do not recommend for mental health. For stabilizing you for a ed maybe?? But just go to the hospital if you need that, I hope everyone who reads this gets helps for a ed , no matter what kind your eating disorders you have, you are vaild even if the Linder center doesn’t care

  Went for outpatient Adolescent PHP for a total of two weeks. I struggle with moderate depression, moderate anxiety, and I am neurodivergent (autism + ADD). Positive things first: The food they give you is incredible, especially for hospital food. The people are all very kind and easy to work with, though do consider that im a very easygoing teenager. I'm not sure how they would do with more sporadically emotional kids. They also got me on liquid medicine, which is big since I can't swallow pills. In terms of actual service, your kid won't get told anything more than they would through normal care. I personally only received very little one-on-one care, including 2 one-hour sessions in therapy, which is barely enough to establish a relationship with the person. You mostly just learn coping skills or do stress relief like painting or playing with dogs. That's really all there is to it. I can't remember anything else because it was all surface level, and I'm definitely not going to apply any of this outside of the building. If you want your kid to be told to journal and block out their problems, this is the place for you! Many other reviews compare this place to a prison, which I consider a fitting description. You can only go certain places with certain people, and they frequently discourage any real interaction with your peers. It feels like they are trying to sell you something instead of actually helping, and they recommend a lot of affiliated programs if you want to give them even more of your paycheck. Overall, I don't think this place is awful, but you can get the same treatment (for less money) going with other options.

  I am a huge advocate for mental health as someone who struggles with OCD and anxiety. I was referred to Lindner inpatient for postpartum OCD and depression with hopes for support and recovery. I was told they had a postpartum specialization program. I was scared out of my mind, but was in such a dark place I knew I needed more help than daily therapy alone, so I went inpatient. I was told on the phone and during intake id have daily therapy and support groups for postpartum. I was completely lied to. Inpatient was like a prison. I get it’s for people’s safety, but it made my anxiety and OCd so much worse. Nothing was geared to postpartum. They were clueless on postpartum ocd and depression. There was 0 therapy, but young adult posed as mental health therapists leading groups a few times a day. I was placed on a floor with other patients having outbursts regularly which triggered me even more. I was breast feeding and had to continue pumping. The staff was clueless and because I was in a prison, I was not allowed to see where my milk was being stored, how it was being stored or handled behind closed doors. I ended up having to discard all my milk on discharge because it just felt icky not knowing where my milk was. Someone had to watch me pump each time and I was unable to get the supplies needed to wash my pump parts. Staff was very intrusive while I was pumping me asking me a lot of questions like “wow does it hurt” “wow that looks uncomfortable”. For a place being “sold” as good for postpartum, they surely were clueless. I left in worse shape than I arrived and had to start finding help all over again. I believe Lindner has a purpose, but definitely not for postpartum.

  Edit: it seems my issue was the result of a handful of staff members and isn't representative of the total picture. After the initial event, the problem was solved pretty quickly and I was allowed to use my chosen name every visit from then on and the relevant employees were educated on these issues. As such, I wanted to leave my original review below but changed it from 1 to 4 starts based on how impressed I was with how this was handled This place claims to be LGBTQ+ affirming but I was forced to use a visitor ID with my dead name and then had to deal with rude treatment from the charge nurse when I got to the floor and the name I gave her didn't match my visitor's pass. This was allegedly the LGBTQ+ unit and that I am obviously visibly trans. They literally have a blog post about the importance of respecting trans identity for our mental health. This seems like such a basic lack of care and respect for people in a mental healthcare setting, I can't in good conscience give them anything other than one star. I hope they rectify this egregious treatment of trans people before it kills someone
