From the moment I first arrived, right through to where I am now in my recovery, I have felt completely supported and genuinely cared for every step of the way. The program you provide is exceptional, and it’s clear how much thought, structure, and compassion goes into it.

What really stands out to me is the environment you have created, it doesn’t just feel like a program, it feels like being part of a family. That sense of connection, understanding, and support has made a significant impact on my journey and has given me great confidence moving forward.

I feel extremely privileged to have experienced this journey with such a dedicated and compassionate group of people.

I very much look forward to staying in touch and will, without hesitation, be highly recommending your program to others.

Thank you all again — it truly means a great deal. Read Less

I recommended a friend to The Bardo who had been battling with addiction for over a decade and had tried everything to regain control of his life, I am so happy to say he is now recovered and is going to the gym, caring for himself, loving his life and who he is for the first time since I've known him and the change is exactly what you can only hope for someone.
The Bardo is like going to a loving home, you are treated like a family member and the after-care support ensures you continue the journey of sobriety. If you have friends, family or are struggling yourself with addiction or behaviours that are negatively impacting you, or those around you, please reach out to them and chat through what makes them so different.

The staff were welcoming, helpful, supportive and very knowledgeable.
Meal times were warm, inclusive and friendly, with excellent advice being shared.
I would highly recommend The Bardo as a place to get your life back on track

The Bardo is the third respite facility I've attended for STA, and it's by far the best. Their team of therapists are brilliant. My experience was completely tailored to my needs/wants. I left feeling much more capable of meeting my long-term NDIS goals.

Read MoreI Attended The Bardo on a 4 week Detox/ rehab program, Leslie and Greg were absolutely fantastic I cannot stress enough how this program and experience changed my life and saved my life. I attended for opioid dependency and mental health associated issues caused by the opiates due to a significant back injury in 2020. I had a lot of trouble with my current doctor and specialist team who did not support me and left me helpless with no support or direction We reached out yo the Bardo who helped myself before even starting the program find the right specialist and support team to safely detox me in the facility. The facility is amazing 5 star accommodation and very private and confidential with complete one on one support, tailored to your life and lifestyle, goals and values not only to help detox and rehab you but to continue to support you in getting your life back on track to what you value you most. Not only that but they have a real passion to helping others and understanding and care in what people do through and how private it is for some. I looked at a lot of other government run programs which did not go to these lengths to get your life back on track the way you want to be. The Bardo continue after the program to assist abd support your also with follow up appointments. The staff are amazing and I have learnt so much about myself and life and rediscovered myself and my passions. All the staff are tailored to your lifestyle from councillors, psychologists, life coaches, yoga, acupuncture, pain management, nutritionist,PTs and sport’s psychology to name a few. They provide a caring environment and a relaxed setting with beautiful amenities and surrounding. All the meals are fully cooked by chefs for healthy eating. Greg and Leslie provide a 24 hour support with registered nurse and practitioners on hand to support all those going through detox with a caring and understanding attitude from years of experience in the field. I always felt safe, private and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. They also supported me with my continued back injury and ensured I had support and assisted in the rehab of my back injury supporting me in finding a capable new dr and specialist team to continue treatment in my back. They pride themselves on enduring ever person is supported individually as all persons are different and have had a different journey, whilst also allowing patients to continue to connect with the outside works keeping their phones to speak to loved ones or work etc. The bardo also ensure getting out in the world again is so important and have a range of activities set up to ensure patients are getting out whether it be a cafe, lunch, whale watching or bowling to name a few to remember what it’s like to enjoy life again. I love fishing and fitness and they took me fishing and hiking several times. The biggest thing got me was the privacy as it’s a very private battle having my own room and space but also freedom to see my family or get out and go for a walk and time to do reflection. I looked at different government facilities which were not private shared rooms and had no connection with the outside world and a lot of group activities with little to no support outside leaving or other facilities were insanely expensive. To put it simply the Bardo Leslie, Greg and the team saved my life from where i was until now I’m a completely different person and having left felt confident and supported to go back to life with a new outlook, tools and techniques to support me in living a positive lifestyle again and enjoy life. Thank you again Greg and Leslie you saved my life Read Less
