Celebrate Recovery

Find Freedom From Your Hurts, Habits, & Hang-ups

Who We ARE

Celebrate Recovery is a biblical and balanced program that helps people overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. 25 years ago, Saddleback Church launched Celebrate Recovery with 43 people. It was designed as a program to help those struggling with hurts, habits and hang-ups by showing them the loving power of Jesus Christ through a recovery process. Celebrate Recovery is now in over 20,000 churches worldwide and has served millions seeking change in their lives.

No matter if you struggle with grief, loss, addiction, legalism, codependency or the pain of broken relationships, Celebrate Recovery is for you. Celebrate Recovery is a vehicle to engage and walk with the Gospel in your life in an intentional way while becoming part of a community that will walk the path with you.

Counseling

Ann Hopkins
MS, LMFTA

“Hope is faith holding out its hand in the dark.” -George Iles

Life is messy. People are broken. Sometimes we just feel overwhelmed and not sure where to turn or what to do.
When challenging situations are ignored or overlooked, we become discouraged, hurt and weary and our relationships suffer.
Therapy can be the place where healing begins. We can work together to apply your strengths amd progress to your goals. There is hope.
Venture Church partners with Hope for Healing Counseling, and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Ann Hopkins, to offer individual, couple and family Christian counseling through our Central Campus location.
Ann is currently seeing clients in-person and via telehealth.
