Circle of Hope

"The day you walk-in the reception area is where you begin to be whole again. The Director of Operations helped me to be my true self. She taught me about low self-esteem, ignoring positive qualities, negative emotions, and unhelpful behaviors, as well as how this all had to do with me and that my core self didn’t have to be this way. 'Chronic low self-esteem can come from past criticism, trauma, or negative messages.' She changed my low self-esteem to high self-esteem. No matter what you’re going through just know there are qualities to your life that are unique and she will get you to this; I promise. All the staff and classes tremendously helped me. My medications are working like I need. I don’t have to be angry and unpleasant anymore. You have the ability to take hold of yourself so I would recommend that you learn the things you are missing, such as low self-esteem, anger, CBT, and more; they’ll teach you. I learned my past trauma and abuse don’t have to affect me anymore. If there’s one thing I can recommend, it’s to take this class because if I can do it while having difficulty with communication, you can too."

"These people are here for you. No one here is going to judge you on your feelings or thoughts. The staff wants you to do better in life, not only for yourself, but for those around you too. As you feel better and start to show the glow that makes you unique, you will see others will start to shine with you. I never felt judged here. The staff are all great people; give them a chance and they will help you."

“I went into this program very nervous and not feeling great, but it turned out to be so much better and helpful than I thought. Everybody was very nice and made me feel comfortable. I learned about my disability and a lot of coping mechanisms to help me in my everyday life and I found this group to be a game changer for me. I feel much more understanding of my mental health and learned to have grace for myself and be grateful for things in life.”
