My personal recovery journey has led me to The Bridge more than once, both in points of my life that I believe to be no coincidence. I have worked towards my educational goals parallel to my long-term recovery from substance use. In 2015, The Bridge made me aware of Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) meetings, at which time this particular 12-step opportunity opened my personal recovery to such an amazing tool that I find success in to this day. Throughout the last seven years, I explored CBT, and IFS to heighten my understanding of my own past and help my current clients.
