Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Dore' Frances
- As founder of an aftercare program that helps families with struggling teens and young adults, I have known Dore for the last 10 years. She and I have worked closely together to help many families. Dore is very successful in helping families because she has many skills and strengths. She has lots of experience and travels the country visiting programs and getting to know the people in those programs. This is essential in our business. David Herz, Founder and Executive Director, Colorado
- Honestly, I felt absolutely hopeless when I contacted Dr. Frances. If I did not love this child and see the goodness in him, maybe this would not hurt the way it does. I spent well over a year trying to get help for my adopted son. I had doors slammed in my face at every turn. I personally felt like a pariah for even seeking help. On the other hand, the medical professionals tasked with caring for my son told me I was overreacting. As you can imagine, my regret is enormous in that I waited so very long to look elsewhere. I am happy to have found Dr. Dore Frances. Rebecca Wallin, Minnesota
- I am the Administrative Director of a specialized residential treatment program for adolescent males with sexual abuse issues. Dr. Frances and I first met during a tour of our program about 7 years ago. She was working as an educational consultant for families needing residential placements for their teenage youth. From our initial visit I found the knowledge of Dr. Frances regarding sexual abuse prevention and treatment, to be beyond other educational consultants. We had a long discussion about treatment philosophy and the effects of internet pornography on the youth of today. C. Lynn Loftin, MS, LPC, Utah
- If you looking for a wonderful resource to help you explore the options available for you as a parent trying to do the best thing for your teen who is either out of control or simply not thriving call Dore! She has a wealth of experience and led us through the maze of therapeutic interventions, wilderness programs, therapeutic boarding schools and next steps. She is passionate about her work and can tune in specifically to what your child and your family needs. We were at our wits end about how to keep our daughter safe in what was an escalating series of scary events, unhealthy choices, and our lack of capacity to have sufficient influence over her behavior. Dore picked out programs suited to her personality and needs. She held our hand through the process. And now our daughter is a mature, sober, high functioning young woman with a close and loving relationship with us. SP Psychologist, Boulder, Colorado
