First visit here was amazing everyone was so welcoming. I'm a veteran and the counselor I saw was a veteran as well, it was nice being able to someone who knows a lot about the military life. My counselor was kind and empathetic but has 30 yrs of experience and it shows. The environment is very calming and homely. I'm very impressed with this center.
