Customer Testimonials

“I referred two clients to the service, both were able to make an informed decision about their employment situation. One decided to go for the new higher paying job and one decided to remain in his current employment situation. In both instances the client was empowered to make that decision without reservation which is ideal in a person centered planning model.”

- Michael Flynn, The Plus Company
