ABOUT US
Channel Wellness was formed from the shared vision of Madeleine Narvilas and Loraine Kuppe-Carrozza, two accomplished professionals in the field of behavioral healthcare, who saw an opportunity to bring the best of their backgrounds and talents to the space of Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP). They create an individualized, boutique program that serves the treatment community with the highest standards of care. Driven by their passion for recovery and commitment to excellence, Maddie and Loraine founded Channel Wellness in 2024, integrating evidence-based therapeutic methods with holistic practices to provide a comprehensive and innovative approach to healing.
The Channel Wellness Vision
Madeleine Narvilas is an accomplished attorney, clinician, and consultant, while Loraine Kuppe-Carrozza is a successful businesswoman, entrepreneur, and clinician. They have worked together since 2012, having met in their roles at a renowned provider in the addiction treatment milieu. Their shared vision and passion for recovery led them to develop a bespoke family systems-based program for clients in South Florida in 2014. Since 2018, they have continued their impactful work as a consulting team, which ultimately led to the creation of Channel Wellness.
The word “channel” has many meanings to the founders on a personal level, and also as a metaphor for the journey of recovery. Defined as a ‘length of water joining two larger areas of water,’ it also represents a means of communication and expression. This name embodies our belief that the work of self-discovery is a journey, and the Channel community represents the waves of healing and channels of hope integral to that journey.
The Channel Wellness clinical team has over a century of combined experience, with each member having dedicated 12 to 30 years to the field. They all share the belief that lasting change comes from the client’s internal motivation, rather than external influence. This commitment to client self-determination is also reflected in the name “Channel Wellness.”
At Channel Wellness, we provide personalized clinical programming aligned with 12 Step philosophy and body-centered practices. Our mission is to help our clients and their families achieve long-term recovery and inspire them to create the relationships and lives they desire.
