I was faced with court-ordered charges which required me to complete a Drug & Alcohol Assessment. When I called New Directions (ND) the first time, the phone was immediately answered by a New Client Coordinator, who was excellent, friendly, very professional and clearly explained the entire process. I had a very short window between my arraignment and 1st hearing.

I had a pleasant experience with Trevor from New Directions. The process went as smoothly as possible without any pre-determined negative judgement about my situation. Trevor is easy to talk to and asks the questions you would get at any assessment. He listens to your responses so he knows the facts before he finalizes your report.

I cannot say enough great things about the service not just provided by this company but Trevor as well. He went above and beyond for me. I was very nervous about the mental health assessment that was court ordered but this company and Trevor really helped relieve that stress. They treat you in a very friendly and professional manner.

Absolutely fantastic service. Detailed assessment, but I also felt extremely comfortable throughout the entire process. If you are considering this service, I would highly recommend it. It seems superior to almost all other methods. Very pleased.

I recently needed to get a mental health evaluation for court. I went to the local mental health clinic and they recommended several providers however after calling many of them they either could not do it for me and or were months out to get me in. On top of it they wanted 600-700+ or more and for me to come in several times essentially adding cost for each session and report.

After some misguided information and a couple failed attempts setting up appointments at the wrong types of places I am so glad that I found New Directions. The service/assessment that I needed was simple, and for a court in Tennessee. ND had exactly what I needed. Trevor Davis made the process amazingly easy and comfortable.

The assessment report may have been late, however, when following up with the evaluator, Trevor, they were very prompt with providing the assessment report per request. I deeply appreciate the efforts of this company and it was extremely professional during the evaluation.

Based on my assessment interaction, I was treated with respect by the people at New Directions. Trevor listened to what I had to say and was very understanding. I would definitely recommend this assessment to anyone else that needs the report. Thanks

When talking to Trevor he was ever helpfully with my situation and ever understanding .He also told me if needed ant more feel free to call him Was very pleased with him

I had a great deal of trepidation going into the assessment because I didn’t know what to expect, Trevor made very comfortable with the way he asked me questions. I was surprised because he asked me things had never thought of before. I would certainly recommend Directions Counseling Group to anyone seeking help.

The overall experience of the assessment was great. Trevor Davis did my assessment, and the entire time I felt confident and comfortable while talking with him. He made the experience of having to take an assessment a lot less stressful. He made sure to understand my individual experiences instead of grouping me with others. Overall, it was a good experience.

Trevor Davis and New Directions were very professional throughout the entire assessment process. Trevor provided me with a very thorough online evaluation in a friendly and relaxing environment. Throughout the interview process I felt comfortable opening up about my alcohol use and other questions Trevor had regarding his assessment.

New Direction is a great company to get an assessment through. I live in a rural area with not many people or options for counciling services. The first place I went for an assessment was biased and gave me an unfair assessment, presumably because they are the only treatment center in the area and can use their monopoly to leverage more business.

Working with the professionals at New Directions was an extremely positive experience. The customer support team was very caring while scheduling the earliest possible date for services. My counselor was a very experienced professional who conducted the interview and questionnaire review expertly and efficiently.

My experience with New Directions was very positive. I completed my online evaluation from the west coast, after close of business on the east coast. The following morning, I was contacted by a representative who scheduled my assessment. The representative was cordial and efficient. My assessment was scheduled for the nearest available time. My clinical evaluator was Trevor Davis, SWA, CDCA.

My Counselor was very fair and worked with me to provide an level-headed evaluation of my substance abuse issues with not only recommendations on treatment, but practices to improve my life moving forward. I'll be sure to use all of these tools and suggestions moving forward as I focus on changing behavioral and thought patterns in hope of creating a brighter future.

I was already at ease when i read about Trevor. After our conversation I was absolutely positive that his reviews were genuine 100%. This process was the painless solution to a ridiculously absurd situation I found myself in when I was faced with many false allegations.

Wonderful staff in a comfortable and therapeutic setting. 5 stars

I met with Trevor Davis and found him to be very thorough in questions as well as an active listener. I was not sure what to expect, but came away learning more than I expected about my use of alcohol and potential risks. Overall it was a good experience. I would recommend anybody would like to know more about this topic meet with Trevor.

I received a professional yet relaxing and comfortable Mental Health Assessment. I highly recommend New Directions for their affordability as well.

Needed a drug and alcohol evaluation done within a very small time frame. They were amazing with how fast they got back to me and set everything up, worked with Trevor who was so kind and guided me through everything and was so willing to help. Thank you to Trevor and New Directions for everything!!! I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Directions Counseling group is very professional. They spent much time with me to evaluate my current situation. I appreciate your professionalism and your response time. Thank you

I was in need of an alcohol assessment, and Trevor Davis helped me dramatically in creating a fair assessment that allowed me to constructively work on my alcohol use, while also fitting within my specific needs. I recommend New Directions Counseling to anyone who wants a fair and honest assessment through a route that offers quality customer service.

I've had nothing but positive vibes and caring staff while visiting Directions. Trevor is sincere, direct and very easy to talk with. I came in under a stressful situation but from the moment I walked in the door I was greeted in a professional, comfortable and relaxing office.

I had an incident over four years ago and I needed an Alcohol Assessment for a certification test I am going to take soon. After finding New Directions, I was assigned Trevor Davis to perform my assessment. Trevor explained the process in detail, was very thorough with his questions and truly listened to my answers. I would happily recommend New Directions to anyone needing an assessment!

Smooth and easy

I was court ordered to have a substance abuse evaluation. I was extremely nervous about the whole process. Right from the beginning of the conversation Mr. Davis made me feel at ease and comfortable. We walked through the process and then went through the evaluation. Mr. Davis was very professional and understanding of my situation. After the evaluation Mr. Davis promptly sent me the report.

Trevor Davis from Directions was extremely helpful in providing a court mandated alcohol assessment in a short amount of time. He made the process feel comfortable and really took his time in learning about me using different scientific methods so the results would be quite accurate. Furthermore, he took the time to explain his assessment, which was completely fair. I highly recommend him!

Afraid, I reached out for an assessment by New Directions. Having a problem is never a thing to celebrate, especially when it lands you in a situation out of your control. I called for help and that is precisely what I received. This process was very professional, sensitive, and respectful. Trevor, my counselor, took plenty of time and patience while conducting my evaluation.

I really enjoyed this service and my interviewer was calm, understanding, and gave me great advice during the interview. I recommend this service to any seeking help.

My interviewer at New Directions was fair and polite in assessing my substance abuse evaluation.

I had a drug evaluation to determine if I was or was not an addict.

If you have found yourself at the New Directions website and reading these testimonials, it is most probable that you are seeking one or more of the substance and/or behavioral services provided by Brian Davis and his highly professional team.

Great assesment

I found the entire experience at Directions very positive. From the receptionist who smiled and greeted me to Mr Davis who performed my assessment, I felt a genuine sense of caring and curiosity. This was my first time in a situation like this and I was concerned I would be met with judgment and disdain and I felt absolutely none of that.

As usual, I waited till the last minute to set up an appointment. I needed it done in 24 hours to wrap up my court case, but when I called they were booked. I had gotten a call back saying that Brian would make it work.

I am very thankful for the services provided by New Directions. Mr. Davis made what would normally be an uncomfortable process less painless and was very professional. The court accepted the assessments with no questions and dismissed my case. Thanks Again New Directions!

The environment at New Directions Counseling was very clean, the receptionist helpful and welcoming. The other staff that I witnessed greeting people were very welcoming as well. Brian Davis was extremely professional from the time I met him walking in the door through the time I left. I could tell that he cares and takes great pride in his honorable work.

Alcohol Assessment

New Directions helped me get a fresh start. I was headed for trouble, but getting a DUI really woke me up. Meeting with their counselor helped me see my drinking from a new perspective. I still drink but I can't remember the last time I had too much to drink or woke up regretting it.

I was arrested for a DUI with a .04 BAC. The judge agreed with my lawyer that my arrest was questionable but wanted an alcohol evaluation just to make sure I didn’t have a problem. Most places I called couldn’t even see me for 2 to 3 weeks. New Directions helped me get a quality assessment with friendly service and fortunately within 2 days.

My boyfriend and I had several bad arguments after drinking. I had to make a decision to either work on cutting back or us breaking up. I decided that drinking wasn’t worth it and called New Directions for help. It was a good decision. The counselor didn’t preach to us or tell us we were "in denial" but helped us step back and see what was going on at a deeper level.
