Recovery isn't about erasing the past, it's about transforming your relationship with it and reclaiming your future.

When treatment recognizes how past experiences shape present struggles, healing can address root causes rather than just symptoms. Our blog breaks down what trauma-informed care actually looks like and why it creates better outcomes for people ready to move forward.

A year ago, you made a choice. And then you made it again. And again. One year of recovery isn't just about what you've left behind - it's about everything you've built.

Congratulations to everyone reaching this milestone 💚

With $1.7 billion expected to be wagered on this year's Super Bowl, the intersection of major sporting events and gambling patterns is getting more attention.

Our latest blog explores when casual game day betting can become something more serious, what to watch for, and the pathways to support when gambling stops being fun and starts causing problems.

Our Clinical Director, Kelly Dewey, recently spoke with CBS 6 about an important trend we're seeing: gambling-related concerns increase significantly after major sporting events like the Super Bowl.

"We see success when they are willing to be open, honest, willing to engage with us, but also a program of recovery which can look different for everyone."

If you or someone you care about is ready to explore support, we're here.

Virginia's gambling helpline calls increased 200% since sports betting legalization. Treatment centers expect more help requests after Super Bowl weekend.

Meet Ava! 🐶

As Chief Barketing Officer, Ava brings smiles to our facility with her daily fashion shows and sweet personality. Don't let her size fool you - she takes her job seriously:

"I come to work every day in my best outfits and hang out in the office. Patients can visit me if they want some puppy therapy, but no pressure - I totally get that not everyone is a dog person. My specialty is providing stress relief and the occasional laugh when someone sees my latest outfit. Plus, as a Coton de Tulear, I have a cotton-like coat that's actually hair rather than fur, so I'm hypoallergenic for those who do want to say hi. It's a pretty great gig - I get to look cute, make people smile, and still be home for dinner."

Meet Courtney! 💕

As Marketing Director, Courtney brings years of experience and a deep understanding of our mission to everything she does. Her passion for helping families find the support they need for themselves or their loved ones during difficult times drives her work:

"I've had the unique opportunity to see Williamsville from many different perspectives over the years, and that has shaped how I approach marketing. Whether I'm working on our website, developing marketing strategies, or finding new ways to make our services more accessible, I think about the person on the other side who might be desperately searching for answers. My goal is to ensure people can find us when they need us most, and that they understand recovery is possible. I've seen countless success stories, and being able to help connect others to that possibility is what makes this work so meaningful."
