Recovery happens best in community.

We are honored to be part of the Currituck County Recovery Court team, working alongside Judge Robert Trivette, Coordinator Angela Lottman, law enforcement, attorneys, community leaders, and local partners to help individuals build healthier, more hopeful futures.

At the June 5 Recovery Court session, participants were celebrated for milestones including consecutive negative drug screens, phase advancements, and meaningful progress in their recovery journeys. One participant, Cody Grimstead, advanced to Phase III, earning the removal of his ankle monitor and curfew restrictions, a powerful reminder that recovery is possible when people are given support, accountability, and opportunity.

Recovery Court is changing lives by helping individuals overcome substance use disorders, rebuild relationships, find employment, and become productive members of our community.

We are grateful for the opportunity to serve alongside so many dedicated professionals and community partners who believe in second chances and lasting recovery.

Thank you to The Outer Banks Voice for highlighting the incredible work being done through Currituck County Recovery Court.

Happy 4-Year Work Anniversary, Josh! 🎉

Some people make things happen. Others make things easier for everyone around them. Josh Josephson somehow manages to do both.

Today, we are celebrating four years of Josh serving as our Director of Marketing and Technology Operations at Peaceful Waters Counseling & Wellness Center.

Josh is the creative force behind so many of the systems, strategies, and innovations that keep our organization moving forward. Whether he’s solving a technology challenge, creating marketing magic, troubleshooting the impossible, or helping us think outside the box, he consistently brings creativity, excellence, and a servant’s heart to everything he does.

Beyond his talents, Josh is an incredible husband, father, teammate, and friend. He is thoughtful, kind, dependable, and always willing to lend his expertise (or his opinion on why ketchup belongs on just about everything 😉).

Josh, thank you for four years of innovation, dedication, problem-solving, laughter, and unwavering support. Peaceful Waters is stronger because of you, and we are incredibly grateful for the impact you make every single day.

Here’s to many more years of creativity, growth, and success together!

Today we remember the lives that were given in service to our country.

Memorial Day is more than a long weekend. It’s a pause to honor the sacrifice of men and women who never made it home, and to hold gratitude for the freedoms we often take for granted because of them.

We remember. We honor. 🇺🇸

Happy Birthday to Liz!

We’re incredibly thankful for the calm, compassion, authenticity, and care she brings into every space she’s in. She has a way of making people feel seen, heard, and comfortable being themselves, and that is a gift.

We’re lucky to have her at Peaceful Waters. Help us celebrate Liz today! 🎉

A lot of us were never actually taught how to experience emotions.

We learned how to avoid them.
Push through them.
Stay productive during them.
Laugh them off.
Spiritualize them.
Ignore them until they came out sideways.

But emotional health is not becoming someone who never feels overwhelmed. It’s becoming someone who can notice what’s happening internally without immediately running from it.

That takes practice.

And honestly, it can feel unfamiliar at first.
If this post connected with you, maybe today is a good day to slow down long enough to ask yourself:
“What have I been avoiding feeling lately?”

Some seasons call for slowing down a little more intentionally.

Our Citrus Refresh Massage was created to feel like a reset button in the middle of a busy week. Fresh citrus, calming warmth, cooling rose water, and an hour where you don’t have to be “on” for anyone else.

This seasonal offering is only here for a limited time, so if you’ve been thinking about booking a massage, this is your sign.

Book online through Vagaro or give us a call to reserve your spot before the season ends.

As Memorial Day weekend approaches, we want to take a moment to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. ❤️🤍💙

Please note that our offices will be closed Monday, May 25th, and will reopen with normal hours after the holiday weekend.

We hope you have a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend with the people you love.

Today we got to celebrate our May birthdays together and share one more special lunch as a team before saying goodbye to our incredible Office Manager, Tanja. ❤️

We traded our usual options for some amazing German food in her honor and spent time reflecting, laughing, and celebrating the impact she’s had on all of us over the years.

Tanja has poured so much love, care, and steady support into this practice, our clients, and our team. She has helped create the kind of environment people feel the moment they walk through our doors, and her presence will be deeply missed.

While we’re sad to see her go, we’re also so excited for her as she begins this next chapter. Thank you, Tanja, for everything you’ve given to Peaceful Waters. You’ve left fingerprints here that won’t be forgotten. 🇩🇪

Honestly, it’s one of those little things that shouldn’t make that big of a difference… but it does. Something about the warmth just makes you instantly relax and sink into the massage a little more.
