Exciting news over at our inpatient program No Matter What Recovery Detox: Rob Young joins the team as their new Clinical Director!

“Returning to a detox and residential clinical setting feels like a homecoming for me, especially since I will be once again focusing my care on clients struggling with the oftentimes disastrous intersection of crystal m**h misuse and s*x,” said Rob. “I’m excited for this next chapter in my professional journey, and, most importantly, for the critical work to help individuals in the LGBTQ+ community recover their lives.”

We’re thrilled to welcome Rob to the team! His twenty years experience -especially as it relates to working with clients struggling with crystal m**h use, as well as his compassionate approach- will enhance our inpatient program and help individuals and families navigate recovery, healing, and personal transformation.

Welcome, Rob!

No Matter What Recovery Chief Clinical Officer Jessica Steinman recently spoke with about the key to a healthy relationship with one’s own beauty. The key: don’t compare and despair while online. “The phenomenon of endless scrolling, hearting, liking, and commenting creates addictive pathways in our brains that lead us further from reality. We’re escaping into fantasy, so when we are faced with reality, what we’re seeing in the mirror, how clothes really fit, that a makeup color might look different on us than it does on Kim Kardashian, we start feeling less than.”
