Tony Weaver, McNabb Military Services Center Clinical Therapist wrote the following:
“I am pleased to inform you that W.C. has successfully completed his treatment plan goals as developed by therapist John Chandler, formerly with the Helen Ross McNabb Military Services clinic. W.C.’s resolution to not only reach treatment goals but to surpass them has been a wellspring of encouragement to me…
Since W.C.’s transfer from the aforementioned therapist to my caseload I have been impressed with his honesty and humility. W.C. is truly remorseful over previous legal offences and the intervention from the court has galvanized him to travel the upright road. As such, he feels a sense of relief as his former lifestyle was in direct opposition to his deeply held principles and values.
I firmly believe going forward that the lessons learned and consequences of this experience will be indelibly etched on W.C.’s mind. It has been my high honor and blessing to serve as his therapist for the past few weeks and I wish nothing but the best for him.”
Vet to Vet Tennessee (VTVT), their Veterans’ Court Mentor Coordinator and mentor are proud of the extraordinary effort exhibited by W.C. He is the 15th graduate from Loudon County.
W.C. received a VTVT Mission Accomplished Certificate and VTVT challenge coin. “Aim High!”
