"Thank you"

I am writing this care opinion of Lives Lived Well in Warwick. I'm doing this in regards to my counsellor, Alex. Since attending Lives Lived Well and speaking to Alex about my past life and drug use, my life has changed dramatically.

I enjoy every session I have with Alex. She has taught me so much about myself and about my life, and how to deal with so many aspects of the problematic parts of my life and lifestyle. I spoke to Alex about a lapse I had when I got out of jail. This was about two weeks after me being released. Some of the things that Alex has taught me whilst attending Lives Lived Well in Warwick include; coping skills, lifestyle changes, dealing with a lapse, managing a relapse. Also, we worked on how to manage cravings and how these can occur long after quitting. Alex has taught me about the 4 Ds. Alex has helped me develop a list of fun activities and to help me turn bad habits into healthy habits. Alex has also taught me about cognitions and behaviours of the brain's ability to change and adapt.

I feel that if I didn't have Alex's help over those 2 - 3 months, I would hate to see where my life would have ended up or where it would be now. If Lives Lived Well and Alex can help me the way this program has, I can only imagine the difference that Alex can make in so many people's lives in Warwick. I believe I'm so lucky to have the help and support of Lives Lived Well and Alex. I would like you to know how grateful I am for all your love and support, so for what it's all worth, I would like to say thank you.
