Healthy Living in Recovery
Embark on Your Journey
Healthy Living in Recovery is dedicated to bridging the gaps in traditional recovery approaches. Inspired by Christine Nolan’s personal journey through addiction and mental health challenges, our program exemplifies resilience and the transformative power of recovery.
Holistic Support for Mind, Body, and Spirit
Our approach nurtures every aspect of your being. Our licensed clinicians collaborate with you to create a tailored recovery plan that addresses your unique needs. We focus on uncovering the root causes of your addiction and mental health challenges, guiding you to rediscover your purpose and identity beyond substance use.
We offer a wide range of services, including:
- Individual and group therapy
- Medication management
- Holistic treatments such as yoga and Reiki
With flexible scheduling and telehealth options, we make recovery accessible for everyone, fostering a sense of equity and inclusiveness in every aspect of care.
Recovery is a Journey, Not a Quick Fix
Unlike traditional programs that often limit treatment to 30 or 60 days, we understand that healing takes time. We tailor your recovery journey to your specific goals, providing the time, attention, and care necessary for meaningful and lasting change.
Recovery Housing: Your Safe Haven
Our recovery housing offers a structured and supportive sober living environment for those seeking stability. Here, you’ll rebuild your life alongside others committed to sobriety, fostering accountability and responsibility—essential elements for lasting recovery.
Empowerment Through Peer Support
Our Peer Recovery Specialists bridge the gap between lived experience and professional care. Having walked similar paths, they provide understanding, guidance, and practical assistance. From navigating insurance to accessing career development resources, they empower you to build a balanced and sustainable life in recovery.
With personalized services tailored to your unique needs, we’ll help you address the root causes of your challenges. Contact Us today to start healing and building a life of wellness and fulfillment.
Christine Nolan
Founder
Explore Christine’s journey and witness the power of nurtured recovery and its transformative gifts.
My story is this, mother of four beautiful children, unexpectedly finding myself on the streets with scarce resources and little financial stability. Overwhelmed by shame and pain, I felt stranded with nowhere to turn.
Despite numerous attempts to regain my health and maintain sobriety, I discovered that one of my greatest hurdles was implementing the necessary lifestyle changes to enhance my quality of life. With modest financial assistance and unwavering support, I underwent an extensive treatment program followed by ongoing care in a sober environment.
Throughout my recovery, I realized the importance of establishing a structured daily routine and prioritizing wellness across all aspects of my being—mental, physical, and spiritual. This gradual journey not only restored my sense of wholeness and purpose but also granted me unexpected blessings.
My recovery journey isn’t merely about survival—it’s about thriving. Since July 2009, I have remained drug and alcohol-free, dedicating my life to prioritizing my recovery and family above all else. Witnessing the transformative power of recovery within myself and in others and observing the healing process unfold has been the greatest gift of all.
Wellness starts within each of us. It is a choice to embrace life, make healthy decisions, and strive to become the best version of oneself.
Gratitude fills my heart for the unconditional love and support of others who continue to illuminate my path of recovery.
