If you are dealing with the challenges of alcohol or other substance problems (including gambling)—your own or those of a loved one—you know all-to-well the painful impacts these can bring. I can help. As a licensed psychologist, CEO, and thought leader in the addictions field for more than twenty years, I know the treatment system thoroughly. I provide expert care, clear diagnosis, and collaborate with other treatment entities to ensure the ready availability of any care level needed, including residential. Long-term sobriety and recovery are reasonable expectations, even if you have tried treatment before without success. As a substance use disorder specialist for 25 years, I am poised to help you and your family address all aspects of your substance abuse issue and to navigate treatment options with a clear and unmatched approach. Beginning with a thorough assessment or consultation, including mental health status, we will design a personal care plan unique to your needs. With my years of experience, I understand the root causes of addiction and substance abuse and the reasons substance use is perpetuated in spite of all logic to the contrary. I will meet you and/or your family where you are and offer hope, and a clear plan. I am warm, experienced, and easy to work with. Together we can help you realize the change you covet.
