As a mother, I don't even know where to begin.
When we came to Brass Tacks Recovery and Angela, we truly believed no plan for our son's well being could be created. We felt lost, exhausted, and terrified for him. We had nowhere to go and no idea what to do next.
Angela stepped in with availability, empathy, and a solution-focused approach that quite honestly held our entire family together. She helped us create a path forward when we couldn't see one. She understood that as parents, we needed to exhaust every possible option before making the harder decisions. Our hearts were broken, and we struggled to let go, and she honored that.
She moved at the pace of our emotions while always keeping our son's safety at the center of every decision. She never shamed us, never rushed us, and never dismissed how painful the process was. Instead, she balanced compassion with clarity in a way that allowed us to move forward when we were finally ready.
She held our hands and hearts through the entire process.
We are still a work in progress as a family, but we are stronger and wiser now. We better understand how to support our son without interrupting his growth process. Today, he is mentally stable, safe, and moving into the next phase of his recovery journey, something we once feared might never happen.
We wholeheartedly recommend Brass Tacks, Angela, and Sarah to any family with a loved one struggling with mental health challenges. Their compassion, steadiness, and expertise make an impossible situation feel survivable, and eventually, hopeful. read more
