Individual Counseling

Carol Lawyer loves what she does. She helps people change their lives. Our family realized that we were watching our husband and father kill himself one martini at a time. The deterioration in his physical health was impossible to ignore and gave us the courage, at last, to attempt an intervention. That is when we found Carol. She helped us to understand what is required in an intervention, helped us plan, prepare, structure and carry out the process. Her guidance and support was the calm we needed in the chaos that surrounded us as we dealt with the reality of the addiction in the head of our family and its implications for each of us in the family relationship. Her calm and the structure during the intervention itself is, I am convinced, the reason that we succeeded in getting our loved one to treatment appropriate for him. A year later, Carol continues to care for our family and has been supportive with her counsel as we lived through the rocky first year of recovery. She offered help with identifying treatment possibilities for our youngest child in his recent relapse. Carol not only loves what she does, she loves her clients. I am most grateful that she helped me to change my life for the better. ~ MCK

Carol - I just wanted to thank you so much for your help with Michael. I really think that speaking with you helped for all of us to realize the seriousness of his situation and gave us all the push to get him the help he needed. Without your help I think that myself and everyone else would have been too scared or nervous to take the step and approach Michael with our concerns, and it certainly would not have gone so smoothly without your guidance and presence... Without your suggestion for treatment centers, we may not have found (tx center), and who knows if this process would be going as well as it it. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate what you did to help and what a huge difference I think that it will make in all of our lives. - Client
