Your Recovery and Healing is Supported by Caring Staff
The entire team at Stairway Resource Center understands what it feels like to be lost and out of answers. Daily struggles can become so daunting that most people begin using again because it seems to be the only way to dull the pain from life’s daily battles.
We have a mission to support every person who comes to us for help so they can find their personal path through careful guidance, support, rebuilding a foundation, relearning life skills, repairing the pieces of past which have continued to plague us, regaining self-esteem, building confidence, and of course, learning how to remain clean and sober.
Our team of experts is dedicated to the healing and life skills support for adults suffering from substance use disorders, psychiatric and mental health issues.
Meet Michael Lynch, Our Founder
Michael Lynch had a difficult life growing up and turned to drugs as a way to cope with his pain.
During this time, he made some poor choices that eventually led to him being incarcerated. After his release, he started an entertainment company that became a tremendous success. However, Michael felt that something was still missing, so he continued to use drugs/alcohol in order to fill the void inside. He could not find the internal love, peace, and happiness that he was desperately seeking, which ultimately led to him losing it all again. Determined to find a solution to his problems, he took the advice of an old friend who told him there was another way… thus beginning his road to recovery.
As Michael became involved in a twelve-step program and the recovery community, he began to feel differently. His feelings and emotions started to change for the better. As years went by, a wave of inexplicable happiness started to take hold inside him. After completing his twelve-step program, Michael knew he wanted to help others find the inner peace that he’d discovered. He decided to turn his focus outward to the addicts still suffering around him.
It was then that he realized he’d found a calling: to build a solid community of caring individuals who addicts (including himself) could turn to during their struggles and long after their treatment had ended.
Michael’s goal was to create a strong, compassionate community that made addicts feel important, valued, and cared for by a reliable group of trustworthy fellow addicts committed to their recovery and helping others. A little over three years ago, with nine years clean and sober, Michael realized that dream by creating Stairway Resource Center.
Stairway Resource Center provides compassionate outpatient treatment and our program has one of the largest, most respected alumni communities in recovery. We’ve helped thousands of people with treatment but also by facilitating the opportunity to create new meaningful relationships with others in recovery and lives that they never thought possible.
Michael’s vision has become a reality, manifested by the rebuilt lives and realized dreams of the people he serves.
