🌟 Celebrating Growth, Dedication, & Advancement! 🌟

At Reach for Recovery, we believe in the power of continued education and professional development. When our team grows, our mission grows — and today, we are excited to celebrate a major milestone!

🎉 Congratulations to our Men’s Residential Clinician, Traci Scott, for passing her LMSW exam! 🎉
Obtaining full licensure and earning the LMSW credential is no small feat. It requires dedication, countless hours of studying, supervised practice, and a commitment to providing ethical and effective care.

✨ What does this achievement mean?

LLMSW (Limited Licensed Master Social Worker) is the provisional license received after completing a master’s degree. Clinicians at this level practice under supervision as they build experience.

LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) is the full licensure status. This means Traci has now met all state requirements, passed her board exam, and demonstrated the competence needed to practice independently.

Her accomplishment reflects not only her personal dedication but also the heart of our team — always striving for excellence, growth, and providing the highest level of support to those we serve.

Please join us in congratulating Traci on this incredible achievement!

🌟 Fun Friday Staff Spotlight: Meet Recovery Coach Chris Deleon, CPRC! 🌟

At Reach for Recovery, we’re proud to highlight the incredible people who pour heart and hope into the work they do — and Chris is one of those shining examples.

A Recovery Coach is a trained support professional who walks alongside individuals seeking recovery from Substance Use Disorder. Rather than providing clinical treatment, a Recovery Coach focuses on encouragement, connection, and guidance. They help people set goals, access resources, build coping skills, and stay motivated. Most importantly, they offer hope, accountability, and genuine support as individuals rebuild their lives, relationships, and confidence.

What Recovery Means to Chris:
“For me, recovery means a new life is possible. I love being a Recovery Coach because I get the privilege of supporting people in getting not only their lives back, but also their families, their worthiness, and their smiles. My belief in miracles grows more and more every time someone no longer needs MY help.”

Chris, thank you for the heart, hope, and dedication you bring to our team.

💙 Monday Education: Substance Use Disorder Awareness 💙
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is more common than many realize—it can impact anyone, regardless of age, background, or circumstances.

🌱 Recovery is possible. With the right support, therapy, and treatment, individuals can regain control of their lives.

📚 Did you know? SUD is a chronic but treatable condition, and compassion from friends, family, and the community can make a huge difference.

Let’s start the week by learning, supporting, and reducing stigma. Every step toward understanding matters.

💫 Staff Shining Spotlight: Tara Pierson, LMSW, CAADC

Clinical Therapist – Celebrating 29 Years of Dedication!

This month, we’re thrilled to shine our Staff Spotlight on Tara Pierson, who has been a cornerstone of Reach for Recovery for over 29 years! 💙

When Tara started with us, the world looked a little different — we were still writing progress notes on paper, using fax machines like they were high-tech, and “Googling” wasn’t even a thing yet! (Yes, it was the age of dial-up internet, flip phones, VHS tapes and gas was barely over a dollar!) 📠📞📺

Through every season of change, Tara’s compassion, professionalism, and sense of humor have remained constant. She’s helped countless individuals and families find hope and healing through her expertise and genuine care.

So here’s a fun question: How old were you 29 years ago? 😄

Tara’s dedication reminds us what our mission is truly about — walking alongside people as they rebuild their lives and rediscover their strength.

Please join us in thanking Tara for her incredible 29 years of service, commitment, and heart. We’re so grateful for all she’s done — and continues to do — for our clients and our team.

When clients take the time to leave a handwritten note, it reminds us why we do what we do. These small gestures hold so much meaning — a powerful reminder that connection plays a vital role in every step of the recovery journey: beginning, during, and beyond treatment. 💙

Wellness Wednesday: Check In With Yourself 🌿

Recovery isn’t just about staying sober — it’s about staying connected to yourself.
Take a moment today to pause and ask:
🧠 How am I feeling right now?
💬 What do I need today — rest, support, connection, or quiet?
💙 What’s one thing I can do to care for myself?

When you slow down and check in, you give yourself space to heal and grow.
Wellness begins with awareness — and you deserve that care every day.
