Our Story
Angelo Recovery & Counseling Services, Inc. is a faith-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was founded by Dr. Bridgette Y. Williams in 2014. She has served in all capacities in the helping field; however, her passion has always been in substance abuse counseling, for many personal reasons.
She is a by-product of alcoholism. Her father was an alcoholic who never sought treatment for his substance dependency, which eventually led to his death due to throat cancer. Dr. Williams had an extremely close brother (Angelo) who struggled with heroin addiction. He eventually succumbed to an overdose. It was at this point that she made a vow to create a recovery program to commemorate Angelo's life. If she can just reach one soul, then his death will not have been in vain.
Throughout her journey, Dr. Williams realized it was God who imparted loving gifts of empathy, understanding and compassion to her so that she could explore the field of counseling to help others. This innate gift has lead her along a path that has allowed her touch many lives and transform many souls.

Our Mission
The primary mission of Angelo Recovery & Counseling Services, Inc. (ARCS) is to educate the public and provide substance abuse services that can reach people with addiction and other substance use disorders, ARCs serves the Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, and Stafford communities and surrounding areas.
Our motto is “A place of recovery, A place to restore” Our goal is to provide loving support to people who are going through their journey of recovery. We make every effort to address each person as a whole, in a biopsychosocial as well as a spiritual manner, by providing a course of treatment that is uniquely tailored to meet each person's individual needs. Years of experience have shown that a combination of expert counseling, a strong network of support, and an active involvement in the recovery community is the most effective approach to treatment of chemical dependency. An approach based on these principles is the foundation of Angelo Recovery Center’s success rate in the treatment of alcoholism and drug addiction. |
Our Philosophy
It is our philosophy that chemical dependency is a disease and, by providing direct and supportive services to the "whole person", each individual can maintain an "abstinence lifestyle". Our treatment philosophy is based on the belief that treatment of the being as a whole – mind, body, and spirit – is necessary to successfully confront and arrest the progressive diseases of alcoholism and drug addiction. Our treatment plan entails services that combine education and skills development – this is the key that people with addiction and other substance use disorders require for their lifelong journey of recovery.
We provide the necessary exposure to recovery principles and work at removing barriers that may prevent acceptance of those principles. Team-based treatment, alcohol and other drug education, exposure to 12-step recovery principles, 12-step programs, the SmartRecovery program, and the local recovery community are integral parts of our curriculum. Building a strong network of support is essential for recovering substance users and alcoholics to maintain sobriety and grow in recovery. An alumni association is also in place for people who are in need of continuous support, which also keeps them involved in their own recovery. |
