Through counseling with Gordon Foote, I have been given a foundation that will stand firm to the end of time.  I am now able to apply all that is necessary for me to truly be free of all my addictions.

Inmate in Prison for Multiple Addictions

In the many years and attempts to overcome my many addictions I was never able to gain any headway to defeating them. I still felt that I had no control over my life.  Until I began to be counseled by Gordon Foote, I felt that I was going to live with my reservations and addictions to pornography, tobacco, drugs, alcohol and language permanently.

Gordon Foote, through homework assignments, has provided for me a firm foundation to build my recovery on. By explaining my situation to Gordon Foote, he taught me to learn that by lacking understanding of this principle, causes my sense of direction to be distorted. These conditions were the true source of my problems.  Applying these principles in my life, I learned through counseling I have done away with the anger, frustration, and bitterness I had, that harbored all of my reservations and addictions. I can no longer justify and make an excuse for giving into my addictions.

Gordon Foote has worked with me to overcome every obstacle that hindered my growth both spiritually and mentally. He has even helped me through the grief of losing my mother.   It is by and through this foundation taught to me by Gordon Foote that has allowed me to grasp the things he has counseled me on over these past several years. If you apply the things he counsels you on, you will not be healed in one day or one session. You will still face trials, pain and even opportunities to feed your addictions. You may even have opportunities to create new addictions. But you will have a foundation like mine to build on. You will have the tools needed to respond to all the challenges to withstand the negative consequences in mortality and eternity. In your darkness, confusion and despair you will have a map through the winding path, a compass to guide you when the path seems obstructed to view.

Through counseling with Gordon Foote, I have been given a foundation that will stand firm to the end of time.  I can now be able to apply all that is necessary for me to truly be free of all my addictions.

white quotation marks for testimonials for Gordon Foote

Gordon worked with me to break through some lifelong thoughts, fears and misbeliefs that were bringing me down. Increasing my self-worth and confidence is a blessing for myself, my husband, and my children. I began participating in activities, like swimming, that I hadn't done before, and it has strengthened my relationship with my family and especially my little children.

Depression, Marital and Self-Esteem

I have bipolar depression and occasional bouts of suicidal ideation and now have finally have been able to find the right medication combined with the right counselor which had made all the difference.

"Gordon Foote was a wonderful counselor to work with. He is different from other counselors that I have seen because he incorporates homework assignments and brings in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This allows the Spirit to enter in with each session. The Spirit is the ultimate teacher. 

 While Gordon helped me with a number of things, the one that I wish to leave in this review is the improvement in my relationship with my husband. He helped me to understand him in a way I hadn't before. He helped me to change myself and helped me learn ways that increased the love and joy in our marriage. 

 Another aspect that should be mentioned, is I have struggled with low self-esteem and Gordon worked with me to break through some lifelong thoughts, fears and misbeliefs that were bringing me down. Increasing my self-worth and confidence is a blessing for myself, my husband, and my children. I began participating in activities, like swimming, that I hadn't done before, and it has strengthened my relationship with my family and especially my little children. 

The homework assignments give the patient an opportunity to put into action what is being discussed during each session and it quickens the progression and change that can be made. Acting on the assignments helped me greatly overcome some of the things Gordon and I worked on. The more effort that I put in, the more I got out of each session and the more help I received. 

It was a great blessing to work with Gordon and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone. He can make a difference and he has already made a great difference in my life.
