happened in my life. I don’t think I<br />

would be here today if<br />

I hadn’t found Oasis.”<br />

“Oasis has been a life changing<br />

tool for me. My first appointment<br />

found me to be lost, desperate, and<br />

depressed. Counseling has helped<br />

me overcome many fears & doubts.<br />

I have grown as a woman through<br />

Oasis’s services.”<br />

President’s Message<br />

Dear Oasis Supporters,<br />

Oasis is celebrating twenty years of<br />

providing outstanding counseling<br />

services to women, children<br />

and families in the Birmingham<br />

metropolitan area. Begun with<br />

one woman’s vision of providing<br />

affordable care in a safe and<br />

nurturing environment, Anne<br />

Bruno LaRussa’s vision has grown<br />

to a staff of 15, providing services<br />

to more than 2,000 individuals<br />

and over 5,600 hours of therapy<br />

annually.<br />

The year commenced with a<br />

commitment from our Board and<br />

Steering Committee to engage in<br />

a multi-year Expansion Campaign<br />

to raise funds sufficient to open<br />

the third house – the 1912 House<br />

– as a dedicated child therapy<br />

center. This campaign, led by<br />

Steve Brickman and Celina Miller,<br />

has been quite a success. There<br />

has been 100% Board commitment<br />

and contribution to the campaign.<br />

With initial grants of support by<br />

The Junior League of Birmingham<br />

- Beeson Community Fund and the<br />

Community Foundation of Greater<br />

Birmingham, Oasis was able to<br />

begin work on renovating the<br />

1912 House and expand its child<br />

therapy by hiring an additional<br />

therapist who also specializes in<br />

play therapy. As of the writing of<br />

this letter, the 1912 House is now<br />

staffed and open.<br />

Thanks to the continuing support<br />

of long-time donors and new<br />

contributors, Oasis continues<br />

to be a haven for those seeking<br />

counseling and care. Throughout<br />

the year, Oasis asks clients to<br />

complete a voluntary confidential<br />

survey. The comments are so<br />

moving as young women express<br />

how Oasis helped them to<br />

overcome eating disorders and<br />

escape abusive relationships and<br />

mothers report how play therapy<br />

brought back their child’s smile<br />

and joy. These comments are a<br />

tangible reminder of the beneficial<br />

and essential work the counselors<br />

and staff at Oasis provide each day.<br />

My heartfelt thanks go to all who<br />

have supported Oasis in <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

Because of the generosity of<br />

countless individuals, corporations<br />

and foundations, Oasis has been<br />

able to provide quality, professional<br />

mental health services to so many<br />

in our community. The professional<br />

support provided by the staff at<br />

Oasis gives our clients the strength<br />

and motivation to overcome<br />

adversity and improve their lives.<br />

Please review our annual report<br />

which recognizes these individuals<br />

and organizations that helped<br />

make <strong>2014</strong> a successful year.<br />

Since 1995 Oasis has helped more than<br />

35,000 women, children, and families.<br />

In <strong>2014</strong> Oasis touched the lives of 2,257<br />

people.<br />

Core Counseling Program<br />

Oasis provides counseling services that promote self-sufficiency<br />

and help clients develop knowledge and skills for maintaining<br />

well-being. These services help clients reduce depression and<br />

anxiety, increase self-esteem, build healthy relationships, improve<br />

their problem solving skills, learn to set goals for their future and<br />

successfully cope with the challenges in their lives.<br />

Play Therapy for Girls and Boys ages 3-12<br />

Play Therapy builds on the natural way children learn about<br />

themselves and their relationships in the world. Oasis’ Registered<br />

Play Therapists use specially selected toys and materials for their<br />

therapeutic playrooms with careful attention to the effect they have<br />

on a child’s therapy experience. These therapeutically designed<br />

playrooms help children express emotions through the natural<br />

medium of play. The ability to safely and appropriately express and<br />

process emotion provides the foundation for children to heal and<br />

grow into functioning adults.<br />

“My child has improved in self-concept and<br />

has worked through a lot of confusion from<br />

school-related stress and bullying.”<br />

Counseling for Adolescent Girls<br />

Treatment for adolescent girls incorporates a variety of approaches<br />

including expressive arts therapy and traditional talk therapy. Oasis’<br />

Registered Art Therapist helps the girls better access and express<br />

their thoughts and feelings using specially selected art materials<br />

and interventions. Oasis counselors work individually with each girl<br />

to help them improve self-image, express and validate feelings,<br />

build healthy relationships, find healthier coping styles, and<br />

develop a positive outlook on life.<br />

Wise Women<br />

PROGRAMS AND COUNSELING FOR WOMEN AGES<br />

55 AND OVER<br />

complex for low-income elderly. The group meets twice monthly and<br />

provides seniors with a social network that includes facilitated group<br />

discussion, art activities, guest speakers, and access to valuable mental<br />

health resources.<br />

COUNSELING<br />

In <strong>2014</strong>, Oasis provided 559 counseling sessions to 114 women ages<br />
