Herren Wellness
Since 2018, Herren Wellness has provided substance use recovery and wellness services designed to positively impact the lives of individuals and families. With a strong focus on personalized residential care, their approach combines holistic wellness with medical and clinical support to address substance use and emotional health at any stage.Built From Lived ExperienceFounder Chris Herren, former professional basketball player, author, speaker and wellness advocate, shaped Herren Wellness through his own experience with addiction and recovery. That perspective influences the program’s emphasis on honest self-examination, lasting change, and the importance of connection and community in recovery. Rather than offering a generic approach to recovery, Herren Wellness walks with guests to look within at the underlying patterns behind substance use and creates personalized, sustainable wellness plans based on each individual guest’s needs and strengths.The goal? “No one heals alone. Recovery happens in connection with others who understand the journey and believe change is possible.” – Chris HerrenResidential Care, Wellness Services, and Sober LivingThe residential recovery program at Jacob Hill in Seekonk, Massachusetts, about 10 minutes from Providence, Rhode Island, and 45 minutes from Boston, anchors Herren Wellness’s eco-system of recovery, support and care. Herren Wellness also provides intervention services, sober living, family support, and recovery management after the residential program. Sober living locations include Lincoln Street and Taunton Avenue, both located within a mile of the main campus.
