Meet Michael Yoder, our Founder and CEO—a clinician and author whose journey reflects the very heart of the recovery community. With 12 years of professional experience in addiction treatment and hospital settings, Michael’s path is a testament to the transformative power of structural, dedicated support.

Michael’s own path to recovery began in 2015. Confronting a life that no longer aligned with his values, he bravely acknowledged the need for change and sought assistance. Finding refuge in a treatment center, Michael embarked on a journey that would not only reshape his life but also ignite a lifelong passion to aid others in similar struggles. Through a nurturing environment and compassionate care, he learned to leave past mistakes behind and forge a new path forward—leading to a life he now cherishes and is proud of.

That personal turning point launched a distinguished, 12-year clinical career. Armed with advanced credentials as a CADC-CS (Clinical Supervisor), CADC-II, and QMHS (Qualified Mental Health Specialist), Michael’s comprehensive background uniquely positions him to offer empathetic, highly informed guidance.

Michael’s Mission: Tools for Transformation

While his path initially leaned toward opening a traditional brick-and-mortar facility, Michael realized that the most powerful way to elevate patient care was to put structured, evidence-based tools directly into the hands of those doing the work.

Today, his focus has centered entirely on authoring and publishing premium recovery workbooks designed to streamline clinical workflows and maximize client participation in inpatient and residential programs. By blending trauma-informed care, CBT exercises, and 12-step integration, these curriculums bridge the gap between clinical theory and real-world client healing.

Michael’s journey has come full circle. Through Recovery Based Solutions LLC, he is extending the same compassion that once saved his life by equipping treatment centers, clinicians, and clients with the exact roadmap needed to make recovery clear—one page at a time.
