Recovery is a process. I am passionate about helping each resident in his individual process to achieve the benefits of a sober life.
Ever wondered how someone transforms their own struggles into a mission to help others? Meet Dino Campitelli, the executive director of Serenity Lodge. For the past 15 years, Dino has dedicated his life to guiding men through the challenging yet rewarding journey of recovery. With his own history of addiction and a solid foundation in sobriety, Dino offers a unique perspective that goes beyond mere behavior management.
He believes in the power of intellect to drive change, allowing emotions to follow suit. This episode dives deep into Dino's approach, emphasizing the importance of community support and the transformative process of recovery. Growing up in Scranton, Dino battled addiction and low self-esteem, eventually finding himself in Baltimore where his substance use spiraled out of control. His turning point came at Serenity Lodge, a sober living community that provided the safe haven he desperately needed.
Now, as the executive director, Dino is passionate about helping residents navigate their own paths to sobriety. He’s not just a leader; he’s a living testament to the power of change and purpose. Dino’s method is rooted in understanding that recovery is a gradual process. He works closely with residents to help them see beyond their current behaviors and understand the importance of intellectual change.
This approach not only aids in overcoming addiction but also in fostering a sense of self-worth and purpose. Dino’s involvement doesn’t stop at Serenity Lodge; he’s also a guest lecturer at Clearbrook Treatment Centers and a facilitator for the Families Helping Families program, further extending his impact within the recovery community. This episode is a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or interested in the dynamics of recovery.
Dino’s story is a powerful reminder that with the right support and mindset, lasting sobriety is achievable. Tune in to hear how he’s making a difference one life at a time.
