Journeys That Inspire

Celebrating Recovery Month 2025 with Behavioral Health Group

Recovery doesn't have just one path. Every person impacted by substance use disorder - whether through opioids, alcohol or other substances - has a unique journey. Some stories are shared openly, while others are reflected quietly through lived experience. All are powerful reminders of courage, resilience and the possibility of healing.

Journeys That Inspire is about honoring these journeys. By sharing stories of strength, we help break the stigma of addiction, build understanding and remind our communities that recovery is possible.

In recovery, every voice matters, and every story counts.

Stories of Recovery and Hope

Recovery is more than a word - it's lived every day in the experiences of people and families finding strength and hope along the way. These journeys show that treatment works, support matters and healing is possible.

Watch their stories and see how recovery can inspire change.

A Story of Love and Support

Tiffany and Caleb’s journey shows the power of support in recovery. What began as a close friendship grew into a partnership built on love, trust and encouragement. When one of them found strength through treatment, it inspired the other to take that same step forward. Together, they remind us that recovery is not only possible - it’s stronger when you have a great support system.

William's Recovery Story

William's journey to recovery wasn't easy, but finding the right support made all the difference. After years of carrying pain and struggling with addiction, he came to BHG and discovered a place that offered care, tools and hope for lasting change. Now celebrating six years in recovery, William shares how treatment helped him rebuild his health, his future and his joy in life.

Casey's Recovery Story

After an injury left him in pain, Casey's life took a difficult turn with prescription opioids. What followed was a battle with addiction, loss and the fear of not making it out alive. Seeking treatment at BHG became his turning point. With the support of counseling, professional care and a community that truly understood, Casey found hope and the strength to rebuild his life in recovery.

Tiffany's Recovery Story

After years of living with chronic pain and relying on prescription medications, Tiffany found herself stuck in a cycle of withdrawal and fear. She wasn’t sure if treatment was right for her or if change was even possible. But when she saw the difference BHG made in a loved one’s life, she decided to take that same step forward. Today, she shares her story to show that treatment is not something to fear - it's a pathway to living fully again.

Caleb's Recovery Story

Growing up surrounded by addiction, Caleb never imagined how quickly pain and prescription opioids would pull him down the same path. His drug use grew over time until heroin became part of his life. Tired of living in that cycle, Caleb made the life-changing decision to seek help at BHG and found a new way forward - one that gave him stability, hope and a chance to rebuild his future.

Nicole's Story of Hope

Ensuring individuals have access to care can be life-changing. As BHG's Regional Director for North Carolina and South Carolina, Nicole knows this firsthand. After losing her brother and battling addiction herself, she began her own recovery journey, determined to make a difference.
