Turning Point - System Of Care

This month's peer tip comes from Antonio, one of our peer coaches here at TPSOC. Antonio had this to say: "In recovery, uncomfortable is the new comfortable. Before recovery we were so stuck in our same patterns, but when we step out of that pattern we find recovery and find that uncomfortable is our new comfortable."
Thank you, Antonio, for sharing your experiences with others!

Meet the Team: TPSOC Director, Jackie

Jackie began her career working at Fairbanks Hospital, where she developed a deep commitment to the addiction and behavioral health field. She has dedicated her career to supporting individuals and families affected by substance use disorder and hopes to help them find hope, healing, and recovery. She says, "Today I am grateful to be in a leadership role where I can continue making a positive impact within the community. I truly love collaborating with teams, supporting growth and innovation in care, and helping expand access to services for those in need. My work is driven by a genuine passion for recovery and belief that every individual deserves the opportunity to heal and thrive."

Help us give a big thank you to Jackie for all her incredible work!

We are so thankful for our team of peer coaches here at Turning Point! But what are peer coaches? They are licensed professionals that work out of a lived recovery experience. They can provide realistic support to others who are going through the process of recovery. One of our patients shared the benefit of coaching, saying, "When my peer coach tells me something, I listen, because I know he’s been in the same situation." Visit our website to get in touch and connect with the support you need!

We will be closed on Monday, May 25th to recognize Memorial Day and the sacrifices of those who have served. We will reopen on Tuesday, May 26th during regular business hours.

Recovery does not end with sobriety. Lifestyle changes can be hard, and mental health may be a struggle even after substances stop. That's why our teams are here to support you every step of the way!
