Healing Hearts With Jo

Healing Hearts With Jo was born from lived experience. Out of grief, struggle, and the search for something that truly worked. Families walking alongside a loved one with substance use challenges often feel isolated, exhausted, and unsure where to turn. Healing Hearts Family Recovery exists to change that.

Here, you’ll find compassionate, evidence-based support rooted in the Invitation to Change and CRAFT approaches. These tools focus on connection, calm, and clarity: helping families respond instead of react, set kind boundaries, and rebuild healthier relationships.

At Healing Hearts, we believe:

  • Words matter.

  • Love never fails.

  • Connection is stronger than addiction.

You don’t have to do this alone. This is a space where you can feel supported, gain practical tools, and discover hope again.

CRAFT Approach - Community Reinforcement and Family Training

I'm Joanne Feist, a proud mom of two, happily married, and part of a very tight-knit crew. We’re all about making memories: family holidays, beach time, and yearly girls’ trips with my mom, sisters, and nieces. When my Dad was alive, Sunday dinners were a staple, and Hawaii was our favorite family vacation spot. I love to travel and explore, but I’m also just as happy with my toes in the sand, soaking up the peace of the beach.

Growing up, my Dad encouraged me to start a career in real estate. When I turned 18, that’s exactly what I did. I’ve loved building my career around helping people feel at home.

In recent years, my heart has been called in a new direction. After walking through the pain and uncertainty of addiction with my loved one, I was determined to find a different way… something that truly helped. What we were doing wasn’t working. Then I discovered the Invitation to Change and CRAFT approach, and it changed everything. It’s a compassionate, evidence-based method for supporting a loved one through substance use, without losing yourself in the process.

That experience lit a fire in me to complete certification courses and dedicate myself to helping other families navigate their own path through the heartache and complexity of addiction.

Thanks for being here. Whether you're looking for support, real estate guidance, or just curious about my journey…welcome. I’m so glad you found your way here.
