Existential Counselor Society

Counselors Dedicated to Changing Minds and Changing Lives All people are entitled to experience the highest level of human functioning.

The basic needs such as love and belonging, safety needs, and physiological needs must be met in order for a person to develop high self-esteem eventually leading to self-actualization or the ability to define in one's life, and find the answer to the question "WHO AM I?"

In order to achieve wellness a person must have a mastery in all four realms of human existence (self, society, biology, and spirituality). A concern in one area leads to a person experiencing anxiety. Anxiety is a normal aspect of life, but neurotic or problematic anxiety debilitates causing a sense of paralysis in achieving one's goals and desires

Let’s make this last chapter of the year amazing.

It’s the day after Thanksgiving, we took time to reflect on what we are thankful for and it was beautiful.

In recovery, gratitude isn’t just a holiday sentiment, it’s a practice that’s transforms our struggles into strength.

As we move into December, let’s carry that spirit forward, focusing on the progress we’ve made on the bright future we are building together.

Every day here is a step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life. Let’s keep pushing forward…together.

💙 November is Men’s Mental Health Month 💙
At ECS, we’re reminded every day that strength isn’t about staying silent—it’s about speaking up and reaching out.

If you or a man you love is battling addiction, anxiety, or depression, you’re not alone. Healing begins the moment you decide to take that first step.

✨ This month, let’s break the stigma.
✨ Let’s remind men that asking for help is courage.
✨ And let’s stand together for recovery, resilience, and hope.

We’re here when you’re ready.

Confidential support • Real connection • Life-changing recovery
