“As the parents of a child struggling with addiction, we have unfortunately gotten to know a number of treatments and facilities. So when we were introduced to Karen Gardinier, it was a true breath of fresh air. Karen is truly passionate about what she does and it shows in her unique and caring approach to treating and dealing with the disease. She has made a tremendous difference in our child’s recovery, and for that we will always be extremely grateful. Thank you Karen!”

“Karen is so wonderful. She understands the disease of addiction like no one else and she gets right to the point. I highly recommend the one on one phone consultation in order for you to have your unique situation addressed whether it is for your own addiction issues or those of a family member. She clarified and reinforced what I needed to understand in just a few minutes and for a fraction of the cost of what some other counsellors and therapists would charge.”

Karen has become a friend in the distance to me. She gives me comfort, knowledge, awareness and company with her videos and blogs when I’ve been in need of some kind of guidance and light. Even when things are good it’s nice to know there is someone out there taking the time to share with us her experience and knowledge. Yesterday I had a situation regarding my daughter who is an addict. I didn’t know what to do or who to speak to for advise. The only thing that came to my head was to contact Karen. She immediately answered and guided me with ideas on how to deal with the situation. She was able to calm me and I could focus on what to do and what not to do. Everything went well and I feel very grateful for her help! Thank you, thank you, thank you Karen! ❤
