Hello!! My name is Kristen Niewiera and I am a recovering addict, I have dedicated my life to help others thrive in their own recovery. I was born in Massachuetts. Lived in North Caolina for most my adult life. I started my recovery journey in California after spending most of my life in jails and institutions. Struggling for many years with addiction, I knew there had to be a better way to live. After attending multiple detoxs and inpatient treatment centers , I always ended up relapsing and in a forever cycle of treatment and jail. Untill the day I was introduced to a complete treatment plan, which includes a sober living environment after my detox and inpatient stay. Going from living inpatient at a treatment center and discharging back to a friends house or mom and dads wasnt working. Going to a sober living home after my detox and inpatient stay was a game changer !! I was able to transition back into normal everyday living in a sober, stable environment. Having freedom to work and be able to have confidence in myself and my sobriety. Learn to live on my own with help from my fellow sober living roomates and house managers. Doing this has helped myself and so many others maintain sobriety and actually break free from the constant cycle of treatment and jail.
I believe sober living is a crucial part of the recovery process and absolutely one of the main ingredients to a sober success story !!!
