Experience in Addiction and recovery

  • unfortunately I have been in and out of recovery for a long time. Over 40 plus years. I have been sober for about half of that time or 20 years. So I know how addiction goes and what happens in an addict's life while using and finding ways to get more. I am at the point in my life that I feel my past experience of being an addict and knowing what happens while using especially the wreckage that I have created with family, friends, co-workers, etc... could really provide me with essential knowledge of what to do to get started staying sober and a broad knowledge of what happens during relapse and what to watch out for during the process of getting and staying sober.
  • I have a genuine and authentic desire to help others to get and stay sober. I feel this is my calling in life so I want to be in a position to influence and guide people and clients on the path of recovery and sobriety.
