I've walked this road. Recovery isn't about willpower. It is about transformation. You don't have to do it alone.
Maybe you have tried to stop a hundred times. Maybe you've made promises to yourself, to your family, to God, and broken every one of them. Maybe the shame of that is heavier than the addiction itself. Maybe you have started to believe that this is just who you are, that you're fundamentally broken, and that nothing will ever change.
You might be hiding it. Functioning on the outside while falling apart on the inside. Going to work, paying your bills, holding it together just enough that nobody knows. Or maybe everyone knows and they have stopped believing you when you say this time will be different.
Maybe you don't even know what you're running from. You just know that when the pain gets too loud, there's something that makes it quiet for a little while. The drink, the drug, the behavior, whatever your escape is, it works until it doesn't. It stopped working a long time ago, but you keep going back because you don't know any other way.
You aren't broken. You're in pain. Pain has a source. When we find the source, the need to self-medicate begins to dissolve.
I'm not going to stand on the other side of recovery and wave at you. I've been where you are. I've sat in the darkness, made the promises, broken them, felt the shame. My own journey through addiction and into recovery is the foundation of everything I do. I don't speak from theory. I speak from scars.
Addiction is never the real problem. It's the solution you found for a problem nobody helped you solve. Maybe it was trauma. Maybe it was grief. Maybe it was a childhood where you learned that your feelings weren't safe. Whatever the root, the substance or behavior became the way you survived. It worked for a while. Until it started killing you.
My approach isn't about willpower, white-knuckling, or counting days. It is about understanding why. Why do you use? What pain are you medicating? What truth are you avoiding? When we answer those questions honestly, the grip of addiction begins to loosen.
I combine spiritual principle with practical, compassionate guidance. I work alongside 12-step programs, clinical treatment, and whatever other support you have in place. I'm not a replacement for medical care. I'm the person who helps you do the deep inner work that makes everything else stick.
I offer daily check-in packages for people in early recovery because I know those first days and weeks are the hardest. You won't do this alone.
We will sit together on Zoom for 30 minutes. You talk, I listen. There's no judgment, no lecture, no guilt trip. I have heard it all and I've lived most of it. Nothing you say will shock me or make me think less of you.
You don't need to be sober to call me. You don't need to have hit rock bottom. You don't need to have a plan. You just need to be honest. If you can give me honest, I can work with that.
I will ask you what's going on. Not just with the addiction, but with your life. What hurts? What are you running from? What did you used to dream about before the addiction took over? Because recovery isn't about removing something from your life. It is about building a life so full and so real that you don't need to escape from it anymore.
By the end of our call, you will know if I'm the right person to walk with you. If I'm not, I will tell you that directly and point you to someone who is.
Everything discussed is completely confidential. This is a safe space. Period.

Families are often looking for someone who can provide more support than an hour a week. If you feel your loved one needs more support, I can custom create a plan that may meet their needs: online Zoom discussions, sessions, phone calls, support management alongside other programs, and more.
Send an email to Jan@JaniceMann.com with a synopsis of what your loved one is dealing with and a phone number for me to call you back.
