Joan Sciorta, Nationally Certified Recovery Specialist and Interventionist

Joan serves as Lead Interventionist at Blue Star Recovery, with more than fifteen years of experience in addiction recovery. After retiring from a career with the City of New York, she transitioned into this field and has brought her own lived experience to the work ever since, an understanding that allows her to speak candidly with families in crisis. As a Nationally Certified Recovery Specialist and Interventionist, Joan specializes in crisis intervention, recovery coaching, and family support, stepping in at some of the most difficult moments a family will face. She guides individuals toward treatment while helping loved ones understand what recovery actually asks of everyone involved, and she stays engaged well beyond the initial intervention to support long-term recovery. What drives her is helping individuals and families not only achieve recovery but sustain it over time.
