Stories of Healing: Montanna Christoffersen

This week, we invite Montanna Christoffersen to share her healing journey with us. In this conversation, we examine the importance of really, truly revealing yourself to another to inaugurate the process of healing. Montanna describes that the moment she finally allowed herself to be seen was only the beginning of the journey, and that life on the other side of Milestones has encouraged her to help destigmatize the notion of “residential treatment” so that people might understand that healing is possible inside a safe environment like Milestones. Her hope is that we might reframe this environment as a beautiful place, or, as she describes it, “a cocoon of healing.”
