What Qualifies Me
I hold the following:
- Bachelors of Science in Psychology
- Masters in Addiction Counseling
- Certified National Drug /Alcohol Interventionist
- Certified Masters Addiction Counselor Level IV
- International Certification & Reciprocity Consortium issued by the State of Texas
- Peer Recovery Support Specialist TX-1525-0914
Although I am well qualified by formal degrees and certification in the field of addiction, what truly sets me apart is my personal journey and recovery from addiction.
I understand the despair your loved one is feeling. I have been there myself. I know what it’s like to feel trapped in addiction with no way out. I have also experienced the consequences of addiction, including legal issues, time in various treatment programs and coming close to death. I have also seen the impact of my addiction on my family and friends. But there is hope, and I am here to help you and your loved find their path to a better life.
