"I really wish I had met Gary at the start of my recovery journey! But god puts the perfect person in your life at the perfect time. You love him or hate him I guess. He has been a great guy to get to know. I have already graduated and still continue to go. I want to be there and will continue to go for as long as possible. I can truly tell you he has made a huge impact on me and my sobriety! Love him! God bless him for what he is doing! 40+ years of solid sobriety and a wealth of knowledge. He has been there and done it and that relate ability is priceless! I have never felt more at home! He is a straight shooter no bs. I can keep going on about him lol! Give him a try, be open and honest and you may see him the way I do. I owe you my life! Thank you, Kyle Horstman"

What is Counseling?

Counseling is a type of professional guidance for handling problems in life. There are many types of counselors, and they serve an incredibly wide variety of people with all kinds of different needs. There are general counselors, marriage and family counselors, school and student counselors, career and vocational counselors, religious counselors, and gerontological counselors specifically for the elderly.

In all cases, counseling works when the client and the counselor talk to each other and develop a trusting relationship. The counselor listens respectfully to the client's problems. Then the two together work on identifying goals, increasing coping skills to overcome any troubles, and improving useful skills such as communication. The goals of counseling will be different for each person, but generally they include an increased sense of well being, decreased distress and anxiety, resolved crisis, and increased ability and function in daily life.
