Testimonials


For me Langley was a place of safety where people understood what I was going through and didn't judge me. The staff were always there to listen, guide and support me through a very difficult time in my life and they genuinely cared.

They showed me who I was and that I'm an ok person who deserves to be happy and that living without this illness was not only possible but worth fighting for. They taught me how to get a precious 5 minute break from the chaos of my mind but most of all they gave me back my life (literally) and for the first time in forever they gave me hope."
