GATEWAY TO SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA WELCOME TO ARDMORE Located between the Arbuckle Mountains to the north and the Red River to the South, southern Oklahoma offers stunning natural scenery and friendly hospitality. With just four exits off I-35 leading to town, Ardmore could easily be bypassed.

But take a little trip off the interstate, and you’ll discover an incredible community with unmatched opportunities to play, work, and live. Ardmore is a city that celebrates its heritage while embracing innovation and exploring new frontiers. Now, we want to invite you to be a part of it!

HISTORY OF ARDMORE Twenty years before Oklahoma gained statehood, Ardmore was established in 1887 when the Santa Fe Railway settled a train track through a ranch in the former Chickasaw Nation, Indian Territory. By the 1890s, Ardmore grew from a cattle-loading station and a regional trading post into the largest inland cotton market in the world with over 2,500 residents. During its early years of incorporation, the area suffered setbacks. Soil depletion ruined the cotton crops. A raging fire destroyed the town’s buildings in 1895 and Ardmore’s downtown was again struck by disaster in 1915 after an oil tank explosion killed and injured many. Through it all, the locals showed grit and determination. The community banded together and rebuilt the town better and stronger. In 1913, the Healdton oil fields were discovered west of Ardmore and brought booming growth to the city.

Ardmore is a welcoming destination, full of passionate, entrepreneurial, and civic-minded people. Whether you’re visiting or looking for a new place to call home, you will be greeted with open arms and invited to stay awhile!

Brave individuals and enterprising companies founded this city, and their energy reverberates into the present.

Today, Ardmore remains focused on what matters – history, culture, innovation, and southern Oklahoma hospitality.

MERCY HOSPITAL ARDMORE The Sisters of Mercy ministry was founded by Catherine McAuley in Dublin, Ireland in 1827 to serve women and children in need. Mercy in the United States traces its roots to 1843, when the first Sisters of Mercy arrived from Ireland. In 1856 the Sisters of Mercy came to St. Louis and founded the Religious Sisters of Mercy of the St. Louis Province.

Fifteen years later, in 1871, they opened a 25-bed infirmary

for women and children. Over the years, the Sisters of Mercy expanded their health ministry in the Regional Community’s sevenstate area: Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas.

YOUR GUIDING LIGHT TO BETTER MENTAL HEALTH LIGHTHOUSE BEHAVIORAL WELLNESS CENTERS OFFER A BEACON OF HOPE FOR THOSE WALKING THE ROAD TO RECOVERY • By J. Adam Calaway Looking back, Nick Oxley can see the factors and choices that led to his struggle with addiction and depression. One parent left the family during his formative years. The other was an enabler.

Both were addicts.

As a 19-year-old, he vividly recalls a parent giving him opioids to cope with emotional and physical pain, a moment that sparked a cycle in his life.

“I think about it often,” Oxley said. “I used to say that I didn’t have any traumatic events in my life, but then I look at my parents, who both had addictions. I see how I grew up, then I look at what happened in my 20s. I can see it now.”

After a stint in the Army, which took him from his home in Oklahoma to the other side of the globe and back again, he felt lost without his surrogate military family. His brothers in arms were gone, and the parent who raised him was dealing with her own addiction battle. Oxley found solace in a relationship with his girlfriend; however, when that relationship ended he dove into his drug use and began a 10-year battle with depression.

“When you don’t have someone to turn to, you turn to something else,” he said. “I turned to something synthetic.

When you’re using, your body doesn’t have to temporarily deal with the problems, so you become biologically addicted.”

Ardmore, Oklahoma

Oxley’s addiction hit an “alltime low” when he was 25. He had lost just about everything – relationships, home, car and hope. He bounced from opioids to heroine to meth, anything he could consume to escape the everintensifying nightmare that was his life. Warrants had been issued for his arrest. He knew it was time for a change.

He tried to get clean by himself, but the snare of addiction caught him again and again. It would be five more years of repeating the cycle of pain, drugs, depression back to drugs.

At 30 years old, Oxley heard about Lighthouse Wellness Behavioral Centers when another addict mentioned it in passing. “I could not stop myself from using.

I did not have the will,” he said.

“I just thought: if I can get in the program, they can help me. So that’s what I did.”

Lighthouse supports individuals, children and families as they walk their mental health and addiction journeys.

“We believe in recovery,” said Jessica Pfau, Lighthouse CEO. “We believe in meeting people where they are. We strive to rebuild hope and give our clients the tools they need to be successful.”

When Oxley arrived at the Lighthouse clinic in Ardmore for the first time, he was in a state of utter disarray. He was scared to face the battle ahead, and even more scared to try sobriety again and fail.

Why would this be any different, he thought. Why would this turn it all around? But he took the first step – the hardest step – and walked into the clinic. This single decision changed his life forever.

Oxley entered the facility. He walked to the front desk. He filled out the paperwork and went through the assessment. He was given a prescription to help ease his body’s cravings for drugs.

He made the daily decisions to return, to keep trying, to follow the plan the Lighthouse team outlined for him.

He started group counseling.

It helped. He started individual counseling. It helped more.

And he kept making the daily decisions to move forward.

“It had been a long way down, and it was a long way back up, but there was gradual, noticeable improvement,” Oxley said. “I felt like the Lighthouse counselors and staff cared and listened. They were there for me.”

Things changed slowly. It was a marathon of daily effort, but soon he gained momentum.

“My goal was to be free of all of this,” he said. “That was my goal going in. That was my goal on my last day. That is my goal today.”

Now in his early 30s, Oxley has been living a sober life for about two years. He continues monthly counseling sessions with his Lighthouse counselor to help keep him grounded and have someone to help sort through emotional situations without judgment.

“My experience at Lighthouse has been nothing short of excellent,” Oxley said. “They were all caring and attentive people.

They have wonderful counselors and staff working here. I really appreciate everything they have done for me.”

BY THE NUMBERS

Oxley’s story is not an uncommon one. More than 50 million Americans suffer with at least one form of mental illness, and more than 25% of Oklahomans cope with mental health challenges – the fifth highest rate in the United States.

Depending on the diagnosis and severity, mental illness decreases the life expectancy of those affected by 10 to 24 years. Often, mental illness and addiction are interconnected challenges that manifest together.

“At Lighthouse we believe with proper treatment, those experiencing a mental illness and substance issues can lead full and rich lives,” Pfau said. “We empower and equip those who come to us, so that they can begin to thrive.”

Lighthouse is the Community Mental Health Center for nine counties in Southern Oklahoma, with headquarters in Ardmore and outpatient clinics in Ardmore, Ada, Durant, Madill, Pauls Valley, Seminole, Sulphur and Tishomingo and three, 24-hour crisis centers located in Ardmore, Ada and Durant.

20

Through a team-based approach for care and treatment, Lighthouse offers a comprehensive array of mental health and substance use disorder services to adult individuals, children and families.

“Every person who enters Lighthouse experiences our three core values: hope, dedication and community,” Pfau said. “We have a team of skilled clinicians who are dedicated to helping our clients with a proven program that helps rebuild hope.”

“We are performing life-changing work every day as we help our clients walk the road to recovery,” Pfau said.

It’s a journey that Oxley understands all too well. He’s walked it. He continues to walk it. And he’s the first to tell people, you can’t walk it alone.

“Part of being successful in life and successful at being sober is never giving up. You have to have some fight, but you need help,” he said. “You can’t do it by yourself.

You need support like Lighthouse to beat the beast of addiction.”

Because of the success with clients and increased visibility within its communities, Lighthouse has grown rapidly through the last three years, increasing from 120 employees to more than 300.

For more information about Lighthouse Behavioral Wellness Centers, visit www.lighthouseok.com.

As the need for mental health services increases, the need for passionate individuals to join the Lighthouse team also grows.

Counselors, nurses, case managers and peer recovery support specialists, along with support staff, are all needed. (See www.lighthouseok.com/ careers for more information).

Ardmore Chamber of Commerce Community Guide

Ardmore is so much more than meets the eye from the interstate.

A little bit rustic, sometimes fancy, always friendly, the city greets its guests with charm and unexpectedly cosmopolitan amenities. The city’s booming downtown, year-round natural beauty, and storied history make for travel experiences that become life-long memories.

Local Flavor Whether dining is the driving force behind your travel or food is the last thing you think about as you plan your trip itinerary, Ardmore isn’t your typical small-town restaurant scene. Jumpstart your morning with a buzz from the local coffee shop, choose something healthy or indulgent for lunch, enjoy a custom cocktail or craft brew for happy hour, order up a locally-sourced dinner at a locally-own restaurant, and don’t ever skip dessert! Make sure to taste everything Ardmore has to offer.
