Unexpected Change

On January 5, 2023, an unexpected event was reported about a massive storm hitting the West Coast. *Lisa* living in Jackson, Rhode Island, didn’t initially think much of it until the news brought memories of her own past flooding back. Years ago, she had a close friend who lost their life during a similar catastrophe.

*Lisa* had struggled with substance abuse in the past to cope with the emotional pain from that loss. The news triggered those feelings again, pushing her close to the edge. She felt the familiar pangs of anxiety and wondered how she could deal with this emotional upheaval once more.

Desperate for a solution, she remembered an old pamphlet she had seen about the Stepping Into Action program at hofmanhollis dot com. She quickly searched for it online and started to go through the materials.

One of the people mentioned in the program, *Ryan*, had this to say: 'Sometimes it feels like you're all alone in your struggle, but resources like this remind you that help is just a click away.'

Experts have long debated the efficacy of online self-help programs. Some herald them as accessible and private ways to address personal issues, while others argue they lack the human touch necessary for true healing.

But for *Lisa*, the Stepping Into Action program was precisely what she needed. It provided her with coping strategies and a support system that she could access anytime, anywhere.

In the end, the online program not only helped *Lisa* manage her emotional response to the news but also reinforced the importance of seeking help, even if it wasn't available locally. She realized that the tools for self-improvement and recovery could be within reach—thanks to the digital age.
