About Illume Recovery

At Illume Recovery, we are dedicated to guiding individuals on their journey to sexual sobriety, healing, and wholeness. Founded by J. David Huffman, Illume Recovery offers a compassionate, connection-driven approach that empowers clients to uncover hidden pain, replace shame with self-compassion, and embrace a life of purpose and wholehearted living.

Our Purpose
Our purpose is simple yet profound: to attract individuals to recovery and sexual sobriety by fostering empathy and sustaining meaningful connections for those who desire true wholeness.

Our Mission
We illuminate the path to sexual healing and recovery by offering:

• Robust connections that build a foundation of trust and support.

• Comprehensive education that equips individuals with the knowledge to understand their struggles.

• Essential tools rooted in truth, empathy, and even humor to foster a lighthearted yet honest approach to recovery.

• Abundant resources that guide and sustain clients on their transformational journey.

Our Vision
Our vision is to see empowered, recovering individuals and groups forming healthy, authentic relationships with themselves, others, and God. By fostering these connections, we enable whole-hearted living and true transformation.

What We Offer

• Personalized Coaching: J. David Huffman’s one-on-one coaching provides a tailored and empathetic approach to help clients uncover the deeper stories driving their struggles and replace harmful behaviors with meaningful, purpose-filled choices.

• Group Experiences: Recovery thrives in community. Our group programs create a safe space for individuals to share, connect, and support one another while growing in their journey.

• The Tsunami of Pain Campaign: We’re not just addressing individual struggles—we’re tackling the broader impact of pornography and addiction. This campaign raises awareness of its ripple effects on marriages, families, and communities, while offering education, resources, and hope.

Our Approach
Illume Recovery integrates proven methodologies, spiritual principles, and deep empathy. Inspired by Jay Stringer’s "The Journey", 12-step traditions, and insights from leaders like Dan Allender, Chip Dodd, Scott Cone, and Chris Inman, we provide a holistic framework for healing. Our approach focuses on building genuine connection—to oneself, to others, and to God—while equipping clients with the tools and resources they need for lasting transformation.
