Wishing you MUCH Recovery!

Infinite Pathways
of Recovery
There is no one pathway or one way to recover.
The human brain has the capacity to continuously create new neural pathways, so we might actually say that there are as many paths as there are decisions.
People seeking recovery are incredibly resilient, often finding many of the strengths, skills and abilities they need to recover within themselves.
How do we help ourselves and each other discover our individual needs
and the infinite pathways to meet them?
