Theocharis Recovery House: 

I was a residential client at Theocharis Recovery House for two weeks this summer (July 2016). Before arriving in IJsselstein I was completely lost and had no idea what the next right thing might be, I knew I needed help and couldn’t find it where I lived.

I was greeted with love and care and a customized program was offered just for my specific requirements. I settled quickly to the comfortable accommodation and the wonderful organic menu all added to the great experience I found. I was offered one-to-one guidance from a man with great depth of experience and became involved with others who were using the facility, peer support and group workshops were the highlight of the two weeks.

The house itself it set in the most beautiful of Dutch surroundings and I was encouraged to get out and explore the area, this too simply added to the whole experience. I found out a lot about myself and quickly became aware of things I needed to address for my recovery. I was helped to address so many issues and start making big changes in my thoughts and attitudes. Even though the whole process was intense and the work challenging at times I felt under no great pressure and the pace of the program was just right. I was made to feel loved and in return rediscovered how to love those around me. I feel that I grew spiritually and emotionally, now having completed I have a much better understanding of exactly how to grow in understanding and effectiveness.

I shall return to the house later this summer for follow-up counseling and take part in further group workshops. I am so grateful to Nick and Evelien for their support, guidance, and very generous hospitality, I have found friends for life and healed many old relationships, I am more content and focused on what I need to do next and conscious that in return I can reach out to others in the same situation. I do not hesitate one bit in recommending the service on offer and no matter what your situation, if you are lost in recovery, I am convinced that Theocharis Recovery House is a great spiritual resource that can help.
