Join Mary and Joel on this conversation about Recovery and how they each found ways to do something different. 

Joel is dual diagnosed. He has been in recovery from SUD, depression, and anxiety for 10+ years. He has applied many tools learned over the years to navigate life on his own terms instead of reverting to a default and self medicating as he had for 17 years prior. He has a career and have been with the same employer for almost 5 years. He owns a home, a nice vehicle, and has a good credit score as a result of the working the steps, putting one foot in front of the other, and doing the next right thing.

Since 2003 Holding the Hope has provided expert training and consulting to international corporations, state and county governments and individual behavioral health provider agencies. The company has grown to include a team of trainers, consultants and speakers, all who are experts in their fields and all who bring their personal recovery story to their work.

With a wealth of expertise, insight and experience, Holding the Hope’s team of experts have helped transform the way mental health and addiction are viewed and treated in many counties and private agencies across the country. This team infuses hope into everything they do, and they’ll teach you how to do it too.

With Holding the Hope, it IS personal.
