Danny knows that recovery isn’t a straight line — it’s a lifelong, deeply personal journey shaped by resilience, setbacks, and growth. With over 36 years of lived recovery experience, Danny brings empathy, credibility, and grounded support into every conversation. His approach is rooted in understanding, accountability, and hope — offering connection without judgment and support without pressure.
In 1-on-1 Peer Support Specialist calls on ShareWell, Danny provides a private, 45-minute space where you can talk openly about substance use, recovery, or lifestyle changes at your own pace. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say. This isn’t therapy or clinical care — it’s authentic peer support from someone who truly understands the recovery process from the inside out.
đź’› What Working with Danny Looks Like
Danny’s peer support style is practical, compassionate, and grounded in real-world experience. Drawing from decades of personal recovery and professional work in treatment settings, he meets you where you are — whether you’re early in recovery, returning after a setback, or simply seeking support to maintain balance and clarity.
In your sessions, you can expect:
- A private, one-on-one space focused on your recovery journey
- Support from someone with lived experience in addiction and long-term recovery
- Honest, nonjudgmental conversation rooted in understanding
- Encouragement, reflection, and practical insight — without being told what to do
You don’t have to walk this path alone. Showing up is enough.

đź’¬ Why Peer Support Specialists Matter
Peer Support Specialists are a vital part of the mental health ecosystem. They are trained peers — not therapists — who use lived experience and evidence-informed peer practices to foster connection, understanding, and hope.
Peer support is about being witnessed, not assessed.
It’s about authenticity, not perfection.
And it’s about remembering you don’t have to navigate life alone.
