Katie O’Leary: From Addiction to Advocacy

I feel like you just took us all on this journey for the last, however long you were talking, and some themes that I pulled out of it were: you know, perseverance. And something I just think- and, Katie, thank you for being a shining example of this- is if I don't see someone here for a while.
Katie O’Leary's story is one of resilience and transformation. In this episode of 'Airing Addiction', hosts Cathy Collins, Lisa Blanchard, and Jesse Chaison sit down with Katie, the Director of Recovery Support Services at North Suffolk Mental Health Association, to discuss her path to recovery. Katie opens up about her struggles with addiction and the pivotal moments that led her to seek help. She emphasizes the significance of recovery coaching and the unwavering support from clinical staff in her journey.
The conversation also explores the legislative efforts backing recovery coaching, shedding light on its critical role in addiction recovery. Katie's narrative is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, offering encouragement to seek support and persist through challenges. This episode is not just a story of overcoming adversity; it's a testament to the power of community and structured support in recovery.
