Chrysalis House is not a mental institution. It could be seen as a peer run retreat specifically for those experiencing grief.
There is a small staff to help keep client's fed and to make sure the premises are clean. However no clinical staff is on the premises, but there is a nurse that comes once a day to monitor the client's health needs if any are present.
Our Client Roster is listed below:

Client ID: 303
Abigail Rosenberg _________________________________________________________My friends call me: Abby
Age: 32
Gender: Female
Appearance_________________________________________________________ Personality_________________________________________________________ I've always been a rather serious person. Sure I have a sense of humor, but mine has always tended to go towards more dark humor and I think that's saved me in the past year honestly. I guess one could say that I've lost a lot of my kindness, I just say that I've lost my filter. Instead of the white lies we tell throughout the day I just tell the truth. "How are you?" is a common question and the white lie should be "Fine" but I say "I'm pissed off today, how bout you?" It freaks some people out. I guess you could say I'm rather honest and blunt, I used to be rather caring but ever since last year that's fallen to the way side. My therapist calls me an extrovert, and I am I generally like people. I just don't like when I'm surrounded by sympathy and lies. So I spend a lot of time with small groups of people. I'm pretty laid back but once I'm aggravated or bored I leave plain and simple. I don't have time to waste on annoyances. My ex-husband could never understand my independence streak, he called it stubbornness I call it my strength in that I need no one. Biopsychosocial History_________________________________________________________I lived a pretty normal life, normal family my parents loved me I fought with my sister normal things like that. I met my ex-husband in my last year of law school. We got married the next year, right after I passed the bar. Things were falling together so perfectly. Except for one thing, children. After 3 years of trying we finally had Matthew, we couldn't be happier. I took extended maternity leave just in case as it was a difficult pregnancy. When I finally could hold my boy I was the happiest Ive ever been. My ex-husband, Jacob, was ecstatic but he had to work and so I was left with the baby which was fine.
Everything was normal. And then on Thanksgiving I put him down for a nap and went back to be with my family in the dinning room. When after a little while I didn't hear anything on the monitor I decided to check on him. I can't remember that night very well. All I know is that he was ice cold when I found him, only 3 weeks old and he was gone. I was inconsolable apparently, screaming hysterically after they pronounced him dead. After that I didn't return to work I stayed home and I barely saw anyone. One Month of arguing with my ex-husband, finally he showed that he did blame me for his death and I can't blame him. After one particularly bad argument he left and I was served with divorce papers. After that I couldn't stand being with my family for the holiday's knowing they would only offer sympathy. So I found Chrysalis house and fled there.
It really helped out a lot. When I got back I got my own therapist and threw myself into my work. Focusing on that helped a lot and I've been doing a lot better now. Granted I've started smoking again but honestly it's not a big concern for me right now. While I'm doing better I still can't stand the pity from my family so once again I will flee to my safe haven, Chrysalis House one more year. Maybe this time I will get a little better, and meet some new people. People that know loss, just as much as I do. Details_________________________________________________________
