For over two decades, Michelle has advocated for the inclusion of families in the recovery journey—drawing from her experience as a psychiatric and chemical dependency nurse, a director of a women’s recovery program, and the owner of a transitional home.

Her understanding of recovery runs deeper than professional experience; it’s woven into her personal story. Michelle has been in recovery herself for nearly 20 years. Yet it was when addiction touched the lives of her loved ones that she felt trapped in a relentless cycle—one that seemed impossible to break.

Then came a turning point. Michelle walked into a 12-step support group—overwhelmed, heartbroken, and exhausted—simply saying, “I just need to be okay, even if they aren’t.” That vulnerable moment of surrender became the catalyst for change. As she opened herself to healing, something remarkable unfolded: her personal recovery began to ripple outward, inspiring transformation within her family. What started as her search for peace grew into a shared journey of healing.

Today, Michelle is deeply committed to helping families find that same hope. Guiding others through their own paths to recovery and wholeness is not just her profession—it’s her honor.
