Professional statement

My expertise from 30 years is. that of drug and alcohol treatment. I have been on many tv shows and interviews educating people to the epidemic of drugs and alcohol. All major networks. Also, I am an expert in relationship and couples work because once you get sober, you then have to learn how to learn how to have intimate relationships as friend or as romance to take the place of the drug and alcohol. It’s all about healthy, intimate connection instead of a connection to drugs and alcohol. My passion is helping others change their lives and to learn how to communicate in a healthy way and to learn how to be spiritual.

Message to clients

Every person is different, with different issues and different negative thoughts and it’s the way that they think in a negative way that they need to come to therapy with, that way we can solve their negative and can turn it around to positive way of thinking. And to build self esteem based on positive action, instead of negative behavior.

The goal is to turn each person’s negative thinking into positive thinking through gratitude and helping others, to learn how to find their passion in life, to learn how to work on positive relationships with family, friends, and intimate relationships. It is very important that they learn how to have romantic relationships in a very positive way.
