We’re here to listen
If you’re here, chances are something’s weighing on you. Maybe you’re looking for something specific. Maybe you’re just exploring. Either way—good for you. We’re glad you made it.
You don’t need a diagnosis or a big plan to talk to someone. You just need a moment and the willingness to reach out. Our Peer Specialists are here to listen, walk beside you, and help you figure out the next step.
What can you talk to a Peer Specialist about?
There’s no wrong reason to start a conversation. Whether it’s something big or something you can’t quite name yet, we’re here to help you think it through.
When you just need someone to listen
When you're feeling overwhelmed or stressed
When you feel stuck and don’t know what to do
When you’re trying to get something done—like applying for housing or finding a community resource
When you're looking for mental health or substance-use help and don’t know where to start
These are the types of things we help people with every day. If any of this sounds familiar, don’t wait let’s talk.
Real people. Real experience. Here to help.
Our Peer Specialists are trained professionals with lived experience in mental health or substance-use recovery. But more than that—they’re just real people who’ve been where you are. They know what it’s like to feel stuck, unsure, or overwhelmed—and they’re here to walk with you.
