About Darren
Recovery isn’t something you have to do alone — and you don’t have to have it all figured out to start. I’m Darren Hanks a Certified Peer Support Specialist who’s walked the path of recovery and now helps others find strength, hope, and balance through personalized online support. Whether you’re just beginning your journey, rebuilding after relapse, or simply wanting to strengthen your recovery foundation, I provide judgment-free, compassionate guidance rooted in lived experience and practical tools that actually work.
My Recovery Story
After years of struggling with addiction and the challenges that came with it including incarceration I made the decision to change my life. Through recovery, faith, and hard work, I found a new sense of purpose and self-worth. Sobriety has given me clarity, stability, and a deep desire to help others find the same freedom. Earning my Peer Support Specialist certification was a life-changing milestone. It turned my lived experience into a source of strength and allowed me to give back in a meaningful way.
My Motivation To Help
“My motivation comes from my own journey. I know what it’s like to lose everything — and what it takes to rebuild. The people who believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself changed my life, and now I want to be that same light for others walking the path of recovery.”
