Matt O'Malley, the owner and CEO of Empower Health Group, shares his journey from addiction to becoming a leader in substance use treatment. In this episode of Healing Voices Project, Matt discusses his early struggles with addiction starting at the age of 14, and how these experiences shaped his approach to creating a client-centred treatment facility. With a history of eight overdoses and a battle with heroin by age 17, Matt's story is one of resilience and transformation.
He speaks candidly about the loss of his mother and the impact it had on his life, leading him down a path of substance abuse and eventual recovery. Through years of working in various roles within the addiction treatment field, from behavioural health tech to business development, Matt built a vast network and honed his skills in providing effective care. His facility, Empower Health Group, offers both addiction and mental health services, treating conditions like PTSD, ADHD, and eating disorders.
Matt emphasises the importance of understanding clients at every level, having been a client himself. His staff, many of whom have personal experience with addiction, bring empathy and expertise to their roles. The facility is designed to be accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation, with a commitment to not turning anyone away due to lack of insurance.
Matt's dedication to ethical and client-focused care is evident as he discusses the comprehensive services offered at Empower Health Group, from one-on-one therapy to life skills training. If you're looking for an inspiring story of recovery and the creation of a supportive treatment environment, this episode is a must-listen.
