Even if health + Happiness feel impossible right now
Hey Friend, You've Arrived
You’ve made the very important decision to cut alcohol out of your life & that’s a big step! For some, it’s a long winding path to get here, and for others it’s a sudden rock-bottom that forces them to re-evaluate immediately. But…no matter what your journey has looked like , the good news is that you’ve arrived. You’ve arrived at this new place, full of possibility.
But...Sobriety Isn't Always Easy
Sure, the hangovers are gone, and you’re saving money without all those wine or booze runs, but if you’re being honest…something still feels “off”. It’s almost like you’re faced with a whole new set of challenges now that you’re sober.
Find it harder to relate with the people around you
Feel uncomfortable in your own skin
Have unpleasant thoughts bubble up from the past
Argue more often with loved ones
Crave sugar & junk food like never before
Because without alcohol you...
Chances are you can relate to some of the things my clients have shared:
“People said life would be better once I stopped drinking. It’s been a year since I’ve had a drink and I’m still struggling with depression and I don’t know why..”
“I’m pretty sure I was drinking to cope with underlying issues, but I don’t know where to start when it comes to healing mental health problems, and dealing with past trauma. It all sounds kind of abstract to me.”
“I miss having an escape. I don’t want to go back to drinking, but I sometimes worry that I will if I can’t find another release.”
“I’m worried life will feel like this forever. And that scares me more than anything else. I’m not happy this way, and I can’t go on like this forever"
“I mostly keep to myself at home, because being social stresses me out, but part of me feels lonely and wishes I could connect more easily with others.”
“I wish I could just feel grateful for sobriety & be happy with this new life. But I just can’t. Things actually feel terrible.”
Whether you’re one month sober, or have a whole year under your belt, these feelings are common.
And...While Traditional Recovery Programs Are Helpful...
They Aren't a "Cure All"
- Your doctor suggests antidepressants or anxiety meds
- Your spouse suggests looking into a therapist or recovery coach
- Your coworker swears by acupuncture, yoga & supplements
- Your neighbor mentioned an herbal tincture you can't seem to find
- Your sister says cutting out gluten changed her life for the better
It can be enough to make your head spin. And honestly, if hitting a yoga class each Saturday and eating less bread was the magic trick, you’d do it, but somehow you feel like there’s a more…grounded approach to be had. 😏
You need something or someone that will:
- Help you sort through your options
- Meet you where you’re at with personalized support
- Be realistic about your existing commitments & responsibilities
- Help you restore a healthy gut-brain connection for optimal mental health
- Understand what it’s like to go through addiction recovery
- Help your body heal on a physical and emotional level
- Help you sense into the next right steps
Because at the end of the day…
You Just Want to Feel...
alive again
Joyful, Energetic, Inspired, Fulfilled & Peaceful
You absolutely can!
While I know it may feel impossible right now, you can absolutely build a life where you can:
- Laugh easily & smile regularly
- Make peace with your past self & life
- Enjoy intimacy & closeness to others
- Find gratitude & sensuality in everyday life
- Live comfortably, free of mental torture
- Feel connected, spiritually + emotionally

three key components
Based on 20+ years of experience helping women heal, I’ve found that there are three components that lead to deeper healing & restoration in early recovery.
1. Trauma-Informed
Support
2. Naturopathic
Medicine
3. Bodymind Practices
Trauma-Informed Support
The science is clear when it comes to addiction and trauma. They’re undeniably connected. In fact, more than 90% percent of women seeking treatment for substance use report a history of trauma. This is why working with a trauma-informed practitioner is so incredibly helpful in early recovery as underlying mental health concerns make their way to the surface. Trauma can be a confusing word but we can think of it as any insult a person experiences during a time of vulnerability and the meaning one attaches to that experience.
Naturopathic Medicine
Extended alcohol use takes a toll on all systems of the body, but the good news is that you were designed to heal. Eating nutritious whole foods is a great start, but personalized meal plans & supplement protocols are a game-changer in early sobriety. More and more research is demonstrating how essential gut health is for mental health. Your personalized plan will include nutritional recommendations, supplements, and home treatment tools that support detoxification, repair of the gut microbiome, decrease inflammation, and maintain the health of your body for years to come.
BodyMind Practices
If you have ever had a “gut feeling” or a “heartfelt connection” you have felt the body and mind as one. So much of our time is spent thinking…trying to wrap our minds around why things are the way they are. Chances are you’ve spent weeks on end googling for answers, trying to research your way out of your perceived problems. But now it’s time to listen to what the body already knows. With you since conception, the body holds all your life experiences, and therefore all the wisdom you need to fully recover.
(and you’ll find all three in the Successful Sobriety program, but more on that below)
Hi There, I’m
Dr. Dawn Flynn
Naturopathic Doctor, East Asian Medicine Practitioner (EAMP), certified Focusing teacher, and Passionate Healer.
Through my education, professional experience, and most importantly, my own personal experience with addiction and recovery, I've learned that becoming whole again is a unique process that will bring unpredictable benefits to one's life. If we are willing to let go and allow the innate intelligence of the body to take the lead, we will be guided in the precise direction needed for transformation.
The body is communicating with us all the time! We can learn to listen to it's messages and over time trust what it has to say about what is needed to feel healthy, loved, and free.
The first year of sobriety can be about as turbulent as the many years *with* alcohol.
Through my additional training in trauma, addiction, and mental health and my work in drug and alcohol treatment centers I have encountered some of the best teachers –– my patients! I learned that what is often missing from other treatment programs is a strong methodical approach to improving health in order to improve sustained sobriety. I also discovered that women have unique needs that aren’t often addressed in other programs.
(See article below.)
Today, I’ve been helping individuals along their healing journey with naturopathic and Chinese medicine for over 20 years. And I’ve made it my life’s mission to help women feel empowered, find peace & experience success during this often messy phase of sobriety.
Whether you are wanting to let go of alcohol temporarily or are looking to finally be done with it for good I look forward to being by your side to help you know yourself more, grow, and achieve victory.

VIP Upgrade Details
How much extra do the labs cost?
If you select the VIP Upgrade, you’ll pay three monthly payments of $685 to cover the program, which covers the extra sessions required for me to analyze and explain your test results.
You are also responsible for the lab fees, which are paid directly to the laboratories and run between $735- $1590 total for all three tests. The lab will then send you a home collection kit with instructions, and you’ll mail the specimens back for testing. The price range reflects the different types of tests used depending on your age, family medical history, symptoms, etc.
Nutritional Assessment test
This test is most helpful for those struggling with alcohol who also have anxiety, panic attacks, depression, ADD/ADHD, Bi-Polar, OCD, fatigue, chronic stress, joint pain, or digestive issues. It helps us create a highly-personalized supplement program to (1) support neurotransmitter synthesis, (2) regulate epigenetic neurotransmitter activity, and (3) reduce free-radical oxidative stress.
Comprehensive Hormone Testing
This test is particularly helpful in recovery when investigating root causes of insomnia, fatigue, weight gain, menstrual cycle irregularities, infertility, migraines, PMS/PMDD, depression, anxiety, PCOS, and menopausal symptoms.
Food Sensitivity and Intolerance Testing
The gut and brain are intimately connected, which means food sensitivities are correlated not only with digestive issues like IBS, but also with depression, anxiety, and addiction. This test can be helpful if you want to support your mental health through diet, and/or find relief from chronic pain, allergies, and digestive symptoms.

Today, I'm over two years sober & living a truly fulfilling life.
Dawn has been such a positive presence in my life throughout this journey. When I first came to her I was in a very dark place, dealing with alcohol addiction, crippling anxiety & panic attacks. Through a combination of emotional support, naturopathic medicine, and mindbody practices, she helped me find my center. Dawn's holistic root-cause approach was particularly refreshing in a culture that seems obsessed with bandaid “solutions”.
Today, I'm over two years sober & living a truly fulfilling life. Dawn is welcoming, compassionate & knowledgable, and she will always have a very special place in my heart.

A final note from Dawn
For those of us who have given up alcohol, feeling “good” can seem totally unachievable. Because feeling good has usually involved drugs or alcohol, followed by paying the price financially, legally, physically, within our family, and in our relationships.
Many of us sacrifice so much for those moments of feeling good because the short-term benefit feels impossible to resist. That fleeting moment of intimacy, escape from worry & pain, or the feeling of our wild woman nature that circulates through our veins. Who doesn’t want that?
But, with patience, persistence, and help, you can be free of the struggle, and enjoy committed, passionate relationships. You can connect with an intelligence much larger than yourself. You can find your ground in a culture that distracts, overstimulates, overworks, and demands too much of you. You can experience deep feelings without medicating them.
You can be free of shame that binds you and breathe freely in a world that loves you. You can listen to the voice of your inner nature, naturally as you did when you came into being.
And, I would be honored to embark on this journey with you.
We’ve got this!
