Life Changing Results...
"My husband was struggling with a drug addiction, extreme mood swings, and anger issues. I was desperately seeking help for him and knew from past experiences that what he needed was not going to be found in the rooms of AA or any other traditional rehabilitation program. After his very first session with Alaric my husband came out a changed man. He has now been sober for 6 months and his anger issues and general outlook on life has changed dramatically. When my husband first found Alaric I really didn’t think he would be alive much longer if he continued on his destructive path. Through his insightful coaching and life transforming teachings, Alaric was able to bring my husband back to life."

"When I began meeting with Alaric, my days were characterized with chaos by thoughts of hopelessness and emotional suffering after my recent divorce. Over the course of several months through his patient, insightful teaching Alaric has led me to a place where I can understand, embrace, and become peace. Having met with others at other points in my past and leaving not much better than I arrived, I can attest with conviction to the re-creation of thought, spirit, and being that comes from working with Alaric."

"I had discovered my daughter was physically harming herself. Her father and I initially sent her to a traditional therapist, yet with every meeting our daughter was slipping further and further away. Not only was she not improving, she was getting worse. Something else had to be done. Then a mutual friend of ours referred us to Alaric. From the very first session my daughter showed signs of improvement. Alaric taught my daughter the tools she needs to help herself and she has continued to heal, improve, and feel more self confident each time. I highly recommend Alaric to anyone needing help (young or old), to heal, accept, focus, and grow."

“My son suffered from depression and was actually hospitalized. I noticed NO change in my son after coming home from the center. Most therapists just want to go over, and over, AND OVER the negative aspects of your life with no tools on how to combat the issues. Alaric gave my son the tools and techniques that he needed! My son was always so calm, centered, and happy each time I picked him up from his weekly sessions. I cannot thank Alaric enough for the abundance of love and support that he gave my son!" — Jodie
