Jill values the strengthened interpersonal relationships and growth opportunities that come from living a life of recovery, and she strives to help her clients find success and joy in their pursuit of healing. Jill’s Cuban background is very important to her, and she is proud to be able to offer bilingual services to those who may need it.

Jim Fitzharris
Jim Fitzharris is a Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor who has worked in the treatment field for 6 years. He is also a person in recovery, who found his passion for helping people while working in a sober living while he was getting clean. Jim has worked in many facets of the treatment process from Behavioral Health Tech, program manager, and Counselor and has spent the last 2 years working as a recovery coach for Relational Recovery and facilitating groups. Prior to that he was doing doing one-on-one counseling and case management for individuals pursuing recovery from opioid addiction. During this time, he has helped recovering addicts find housing, employment, reunite with their families and find an individual recovery path that is tailored to them.
Jim has come to find that recovery from addiction cannot be accomplished alone and that building a community of supportive, like minded individuals is essential in achieving success. One of the most precious gifts that recovery has given Jim is the gift of being a full-time parent to his 12 year old daughter Isabella. “Being a parent has proven to be the most challenging and rewarding experience that I’ve ever had.”He is a believer that a well-balanced recovery program addresses the mental, physical, and spiritual. In his free time, Jim enjoys going on adventures with his daughter, working out, and participating in his own recovery process.
