We are so very grateful to journey along with our family in recovery. If we build healthy daily habits, build a support system around us, and remain teachable, nothing is out of reach!
My name is Nikki and I am an alcoholic.
Kind of a weird way to market yourself right? Well, I will absolutely tell you that I am grateful for my addiction taking hold today because it has given me my purpose and voice along the way. I have learned so very much about myself, what I believe about spirituality and people, and how my attitude toward life decides my future. My testimony is my greatest asset today and the fact that I get to be transparent and share that resulting joy and grace with people each day makes me so happy. Even before my opiate addiction took hold I could never have imagined living my life as I do today. It's a honor to walk side by side with the fellow travelers, not just in my fellowships, but in every aspect of my life. My recovery directly impacts all those around me, whether they are addict or not. The ripple effect is so beautiful to watch!
Our team of Alcohol and Drug Counselors and Peer Support Professionals range in so many backgrounds and are quite culturally diverse. The individuals in our family are vetted for substantial clean/sober time and have worked through all mental health disturbances and will be happy to share their successes and failures on every front. We do life together, thick and thin. We have community partners all over the state and also provide Targeted Case Management and different types of Therapy Referral.
We love to take pictures because who would have thought that we would be able to live this life today? We look forward to adding you to the crew!
