Family Life Coach Reviews

Mariposa has given me a solid foundation for living a sober life through an extensive education program, along with peer group experience. I have taken advantage of the after care program, where I hope I can offer inspiration to women who are just starting down the path to recovery. Tina, my counselor, is knowledgeable, compassionate,demonstrates empathy, and is nonjudgemental. I would and have recommended Mariposa to all the women I encounter.

If you can’t tell by my last name, I have a personal connection to you and I love your post. Thank you for each of you for giving of yourselves to those you counsel. Very proud of the individual that links us. I’m a very proud mother. Hugs to each of you.

The best counseling services I’ve ever had! Jeni Cosgrove was my coach back and she helped me so much during a very difficult time. She was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. I will be forever grateful for the help I received by Ms.Cosgrove at Rockford Family Coaching Services!

Ron Hall, is by far a 5 star therapist. He has been an amazing blessing in my life. He has given me hope and encouragement to overcome my issues. He is a very kind, and compassionate man. He listens and has never passed judgement. Thank you! I truly enjoy working with you!

I just know that my one day son in law is a life coach there and is very understanding hard worker cares about people and there problems. He has worked hard to get where he is today. Breakthrough comes when one can trust the process! That is a WIDE open door full of compassionate hearts t serve a soul in the community and that’s success one person at a time.

We did family therapy with Lisa a couple years ago and I really liked her approach to family counseling. She was empathic and supportive while also being direct. She really encouraged growth. I recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist.

This review is mostly for Tina, my counselor.

When I first came to Mariposa I was in denial that I had a problem. But after months of Tina’s emotional and knowledgeable support I was able to break out of my shell and open up, but that was just the beginning of my emotional journey to sobriety. After knowing, I relapsed and put Tina and my family in through another one of my many benders, after the matter, Tina, accepted the situation and pushed for better results, she was harder but always listened empathetically.
And for that I’m where I am today, stronger, more confident, and sober. I’ll always have a place in my heart for her. And I’m so grateful I found this place. I say this with an honest heart, Tina and this program saved my life.

I can not say enough good things about Matt. He has helped my family and I through some very hard times. My daughter was once a victim and now because of Matt she is a fighter!! Very easy to talk to, compassionate about his work, and just an overall great person. If you need or are thinking about going to coaching this is your man!!! I can not thank him enough for everything he has done.
