Testimonials

Josh has worked with people with addiction and mental health issues and their families for over 14 years. Here’s some feedback on the services he provides.

“I met Josh when I was at rock bottom. I still had all the external trappings of a priveleged life. What i had lost was my soul to Cocaine and Alcohol. Josh was able to support me in my time of need and encourage me to become connected with a community who have supported me to change my whole outlook on life. Through therapy i found the underlying issues which were driving my addictive behaviour and take action. I am a better father, husband and boss. I continue to see Josh for ongoing maintenance. I would recommend anyone who has a problem with addiction to see Josh”. James

”I was referred to Josh to help me address the challenges my young family were faced with when my husband was in active addiction and in and out of rehabilitation facilities. Josh created a safe and entirely knowledgable space for me to share my experience, with no judgement and an enormous amount of support. He armed me with the ability to understand the disease of addiction, and the recovery pathway for both myself and my husband. His knowledge, support and ability to encourage me to take responsibility for those things I could control was profound. Finding Josh, at this time in my life, enabled me to fast track my recovery; while arming me with the tools to support myself, and my family. I can honestly say that Josh is one of the best therapists when it comes to tackling the family disease of addiction. He understand what the person in addiction is going through, and innately understands the impact this has on the broader family”. Lisa

“In 2015 I reached out to Josh through the organisation he was managing. I was immersed in grief and anxiety. I wanted to help my son recover from 10-years of addiction. What I hadn’t considered was the personal journey that Josh would gently and skillfully lead me through. On my own journey to recovery as a parent, my sessions with Josh gradually changed to not talking about my son. Talking about me. My immersion in grief dissipated and my relationships with close family members, including my son, changed and strengthened around healthy activities and healthy conversations. Addiction has stopped being the all-consuming focus for all of us. I continue, although not as frequently as in the beginning, to meet with Josh as a sounding board and wise counsel, to talk about me and my life”. Sarah
