Here is a brief overview of my qualifications; I have been in the field of substance abuse treatment non-stop and full time since 1986. I am the founder and CEO of VIP RECOVERY COACHING providing customized one on one addiction assessment, evaluation, case management, treatment planning and counseling services in the actual home environment of each client. I bring treatment to clients who either don't want to go to traditional residential substance abuse programs or have a hard time implementing their Recovery plan into their lifestyle after completing residential treatment. I am Founder and CEO of FREE LIFE RECOVERY CENTER, which is an Outpatient Substance Abuse Program in Petaluma, California. I was Clinical Director and co-founder of Bayside Marin, a Residential and Outpatient Substance Abuse Program in the hills overlooking the San Francisco Bay. I was the Director of Good Samaritan Hospital's Psychiatric and Chemical Dependency Program in San Jose, CA., for 15 years. I am a consultant/trainer for several programs nationwide and I teach addiction studies at several universities. I specialize in teaching counselors, therapists and other providers the clinical skills that will help them to be more effective working with substance abusing clients and their families. I was the Chairman of the African American Constituency Committee for California's Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and have sat on several addiction related Advisory Committees. I've had three books published that deal with Relpase Prevention and cultural issues and I do Interventions and trainings all over the world. I have worked with many celebrities, health, legal and business professionals as well and inner city clients and those involved in the criminal justice system. As they say I can work with them, "from jail or from Yale".
