If starting treatment has been on your mind, you’re not alone in sitting with that thought for a while.

Many people take time to ask questions, think things through, and figure out what feels right for them.

When you decide to reach out, you’ll find a place that’s ready to meet you where you are.

Just a conversation and a chance to take the next step in a way that feels manageable.

Beginning often starts quietly, with one small step and support beside you.

Your goals are meant to support the life you’re living right now.

At Athens Clinic, treatment plans start with you. Counselors work closely with each person to shape plans around individual goals, strengths, and needs. Those goals are clear, realistic, and revisited over time as things change.

Our treatment plans are built for consistency and follow-through. Step by step, they help create stability that lasts.

Choosing goals that truly support you is a solid place to begin, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

We meet people from many walks of life, each bringing their own story, responsibilities, and strengths. There is no single way recovery should look or feel.

Some people find stability through medication. Some through groups or counseling. And often, it’s a combination that shifts over time.

What matters most is having support that respects the person behind the process. Recovery grows when people feel understood, supported, and free to move at their own pace.

Please join us in congratulating our Peer Specialist, Paula Renae, on tonight’s community service award presented by the Athens Area Human Relations Council. We were honored to support her at tonight’s annual MLK Awards Banquet.

Hope for the year ahead often comes from knowing what you can count on.

Motivation brings people through the door.Consistency helps them stay connected, even when energy shifts or life gets busy.

That steadiness reduces pressure and makes progress feel possible over time.

It’s the foundation we move forward with together as we continue through 2026.

January is a good time to pause and say thank you.
Thank you to the patients who trust us with their care and allow us to walk alongside you in your recovery journey. Being included in your process is something we truly value, and we do not take that trust lightly.

Thank you to the families and loved ones who support our patients with patience, encouragement, and understanding. Your support plays a meaningful role in recovery and helps create stability along the way.

Thank you to the many organizations and community partners who work alongside us to support continued care. Collaboration allows us to better meet patients where they are and strengthen the network of support surrounding them.

And thank you to our community for continuing to learn, ask questions, and talk openly about MAT and recovery. These conversations help reduce stigma and build understanding.

Care at Athens Clinic is built on trust, collaboration, and connection, and we are grateful to be part of this work every day.

Research shows mindfulness reduces cortisol, the stress hormone, and activates brain areas that control emotion and decision-making.

That’s why it helps with both cravings and mood. Even a few minutes of slow breathing or guided focus a day can calm the body and steady the mind.

We have plenty of mindfulness resources available if you want to dive deeper. Just reach out to your counselor for guidance, tools, or exercises that can support you in feeling more grounded in your recovery.

Some simple mindfulness practices you can try today include
• Slow belly breathing for one minute
• Noticing three things you can see, hear, and feel
• Taking a mindful pause before reacting
• A short body scan to release tension

Small moments of awareness like these can create real, steady change and support a more grounded recovery.

Motivation ebbs and flows, but structure is what holds you steady.

Regular meals, rest, and appointments help your body find balance—regulating the chemicals that affect your focus and mood.

If your rhythm feels off, start gently: one consistent wake-up time or one group check-in a week.

Each small routine is a gentle reminder to your body that you're safe, supported, and moving toward balance.

The new year isn’t a reset; it’s a continuation of everything you’ve built.

Keep what’s working, your structure, your care plan, your support network.

If you’re ready for a new goal, talk with your counselor about what you want to strengthen next.

Recovery moves at your pace, and every steady day counts.

Athens Clinic is here to keep walking beside you in 2026, one step, one session, one day at a time.

In 2025, Athens Clinic welcomed more patients into care.

Each change made treatment more complete, combining medication, counseling, and peer connection in one place.

These updates help people stay steady, engaged, and supported through every stage of recovery.

Thank you to every patient, family, and staff member who helped make this progress possible.
