Testimonials:

“During the 10 months that my son spent in a residential treatment program, I was counseled on a regular basis by Don Purves as a part of the program’s family services. I will be forever grateful for Don’s consistent wisdom, advice and encouragement all along the way. He not only helped me understand the healing process through which my son was walking, but he guided me through my own healing process as well. He thoroughly understands what the parents of troubled children have experienced, and his focus is that the parents move forward in a way that will best support the child in his recovery. The principles I learned from Don were vital in creating an atmosphere for my son’s continued recovery after the program.”

"As a recently widowed, now single mom with a very troubled teenager, I desperately sought a resource that could help me figure out what to do with my son who was spiraling out of control. Don was the answer to my prayers! He helped me sift through options and build a plan that returned a sense of control to my out of control situation. He was lifesaver in my most desperate hours, and he continues to be a strong friend and advocate for me and my family as we work towards recovery”.
