The N.I.C. Group therapy completely changed my life. Going into it I thought this is not for me. But as I accepted the work and had group discussions with both my therapist and the the guys in my group, I soon found out we were all going through the same thing. The therapy completely transformed me into a better person. Highly recommended to whoever is struggling.
NIC provided me with weekly therapy. The facilitator Philippe Marquis was caring, energetic and really helped me gain useful skills to improve the strength of my personal relationships.
NIC (National Institute For Change) I'm forever grateful for the awesome people here who helped me with cognative issues leading to distorted views and ideas. Things I thought I knew and stayed justified under such as moral highness we're things I needed to reevaluate with true honesty. I want to thank Jordan Herselman who is one outstanding therapist. She is so grounded it made me feel like a new born baby again (true). Her life is a story of drive and energy. It seems she always smiled and that translated to me to someone so kind and of sound mind. Jordan helped me with my most severe internal issues. The hardest thing I changed was blaming others for arguably wrong actions, however, I have full control of my own actions. Julia Kuczkowski, the most esteemed, kind and absolutely peaceful person I know. How I wish to be more like your instruction Julia. You've helped me see so many sides to my drug addiction and I thank you for having passion and compassion to help me and it shows you care. You are a healer. You mean so much to me and all of us. You're an outstanding person and I'm honered to have had you as a teacher. I'll always use "I" statements, as you and Jordan taught me. Brian Wagoner who I wish I knew better. Such a leader and someone to emulate. Brian is a great listener and even better at identifying root cause. He graduated me and I just love talking to him. He's someone you feel like you had a real meaningful conversation with. ..And to my old therapist, Philippe Marquis. The first to challenge me, but both sadly and thankfully, not the last. Flip, you taught me deal breakers, like name calling, repetitive cycles and reaction. It was the spark that lead to my long road to change. If it wasn't for you I do not know how my mind would've unwound this time around. You have touched tons of lives and I was one. Im trying to get my hands on a book I heard you wrote. I'm in debt to you all and I will continue to grow and hopefully inspire change as well. -J. R. Isebrands
