Our Peer Counselors
Our counselors focus on developing their skills to communicate well, to listen empathically, and to establish a supportive counseling relationship. Additionally, our counselors are themselves committed to personal growth and development, as demonstrated by their participation in GMCC's group process.
While some current members have had formal training in mental health services or allied fields, others have not. All members have had extensive peer counseling training.
Our volunteer counselors receive ongoing peer supervision of their work with clients from other GMCC members.
