Our Philosophy

Peer counseling is a scientifically-proven approach to mental health support for those in need. Other models such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA), have decades of proven success. These models demonstrate that individuals who have experienced adverse life events can help those who are struggling with similar issues. They do this by lending an empathetic ear, sharing their life experiences, and creating a space where hope and strength can grow.
