Thanks to Dr. K, I now have a far better and more nuanced understanding of what role gaming plays in my child's life, which has allowed me to communicate about gaming with less judgment and more compassion.

Honestly, this program has been life-changing for our family. We were desperately seeking help for years, but health professionals didn’t seem to acknowledge or understand the issues. I am so grateful for all of the information and help this program has provided our family.

Group has been like the first dungeon Deadmines in World of Warcraft. I had been solo leveling until now and popped that LFR (Looking For Raid) and got a group of randoms who dove into the Group dungeon together, gained some experience points, grabbed some nice loot, added a few People to my friends list, and parted for future adventure when the raid was completed.

Should also comment that Dr. K’s group coaching through @HealthyGamerGG really helped get the ball rolling for me last year. It’s incredibly cheap and worth every minute. It’ll put you outside your comfort zone but you’ll learn a lot more about perspective.

Not sure if you've considered it, but the @HealthyGamerGG group coaching has been a game changer for me this year. Their streams and videos are top tier, but developing relationships within a group, with a clear and defined duty, really helped me turn a corner.
