“Jim McElroy is one of the finest human beings I have ever known. He redefines personal integrity. There is virtually no daylight between what Jim advocates for himself and others and the way he lives his life. In addition to a long standing friendship where I have come to witness Jim’s unfailing commitment to his continued growth and well being, I’ve had the privilege to work with him in a professional setting. A stellar advocate of 12-Step Recovery, his loving and easy going manner creates a gentle atmosphere that even the most cynical and unreceptive find attractive. Anyone privileged to work with Jim McElroy will experience a level of growth they can’t fathom when they begin. Jim has helped countless men and women in various stages of recovery in a non-professional fashion over the last 3 decades. Transferring his innate talents to the professional arena is a natural move for a man of his skills. An awful lot of people will benefit from Jim’s desire to serve others. I heartily endorse Jim McElroy’s move into the ranks of professional therapists serving others. An extremely intelligent individual, Jim is a man who leads with his heart. Many will benefit from his skills.”
