"Sam was my Counsellor during my stay at Fairhaven in Mt Tambourine. Going to rehab for the first time in my life was extremely daunting, the thought of being alone and not knowing what to expect I was filled with anxiety! I was introduced to Sam on my first day and she instantly made me feel safe and at ease. Not once did I feel ashamed or judged, I was met on a level of understanding and care and throughout my 3 month program Sam was able to help me to open up and release some major trauma that I had buried deep down and I learnt so much more about my addiction and more importantly about myself. She armed me with the tools I needed to continue my healing journey in the real world. The knowledge and kindness Sam has and her ability to share her own life experience has helped me so much in my recovery journey! This enabled me to have such a positive experience and for that Sam I thank you ❤️"
