My time at The Well House was nothing short of life-changing. When I walked through the door, I was broken — struggling with addiction, looking at a prison sentence, disconnected from my two daughters, and watching my marriage slip away. I didn’t just need sobriety; I needed to rebuild every part of who I was in Christ. The Well House gave me the tools, the structure, and the unwavering support to do exactly that. The compassion and guidance I received there planted the seeds for the life I’m living today.
Today, I am proud to say I am 8 years clean. But my recovery journey didn’t stop at sobriety — it became the foundation for everything that followed. My relationship with my two daughters has been restored in ways I once believed impossible. They have their mom back, and I have the privilege of showing up for them every single day. My marriage, which was hanging by a thread, has been fully restored, and my husband and I are stronger and more connected than we’ve ever been. Those relationships, and my relationship with Jesus Christ are the greatest gifts I carry with me from my time at The Well House.
Since leaving, I’ve built a life I never imagined possible. I’ve relocated to a new city, where I’ve established a thriving career, earned my undergraduate degree, and am currently pursuing my MBA — all while running my own business. None of this would have been possible without the solid foundation The Well House helped me build. They didn’t just help me get sober; they helped me rediscover my purpose, my potential, and my family.
When I first came to the Well House, I was at the lowest point of my life. I was lost, embarrassed, depressed and didn’t have much confidence in myself or my future. During that time, I came into my faith, which gave me hope, strength, and something to hold onto when things felt difficult.
6 months later, my life looked completely different. I got a job and was promoted to a supervisor role within three months, got my driver’s license, bought a car, moved into my own apartment, and most importantly, regained custody of my son. None of that would have been possible without The Well House and the support I received there. Today, I’m stronger, grounded, and motivated to keep building a stable & positive future for myself and my son.
When I came to the well house I was lost, I didn’t know what my god-given purpose was, I had no relationship with God at all, I was so scared and nervous and didn’t know what to expect. When walking through the doors I saw the beautiful home I was about to call my own and I knew I was in the right place. My experience at the well house was life-changing, I found who I am in God’s eyes, I found a purpose, more than anything I found Hope that I could still have a normal life. I would recommend the warehouse to any female who wants to change your life and discover who she is and gain relationship with God. The well house help save my life.
“I struggled with addiction for many decades. I went to jail numerous times and went through rehab 9 times. I had burnt every bridge and relationship with my family was very strained. I was trapped in a toxic cycle of shame, regret, fear and self-sabotage. I was hopeless and desperate for a new way of life. By the GRACE of GOD I was court ordered to the Well House as a condition of my probation sentence. The beautiful home and family-like atmosphere gave me an instant sense of safety and hope. The Well House gave me the opportunity to thrive not just survive. The structure of the program gave my life a sense of purpose and direction. I was able to heal mentally and emotionally. With the consistent attendence of Bible Studies and Church, I was able to build a strong foundation of faith and develop my identify in Christ Jesus. I was able to fulfill my legal requirements and obtain steady employment. My relationship with my family was restored. Was allowed to move into the apartments (ran by Well House), where I gained like skills and budgeting. Along with building up my self esteem by being able to pay my own rent and bills! It gave me a sense of success and independence, yet still was mentored and had accountability to Well House Staff. I now faithfully serve in ministry at my church and serve at the Well House.I am forever grateful for the hope. love, confidence and stability I gained from living at the Well House.”
