About Me
I've been successfully facilitating both family and workplace Interventions for over twenty years. I have offices located in the Santa Cruz and San Francisco Bay Areas, but I conduct Interventions, family workshops and professional trainings throughout California and the United States.

In those capacities, I've conducted thousands of assessments for both addicted individuals and their families, assisting with Intervention and treatment planning. CategoriesArchives |
