I have been the Director of ERP therapy for substance abuse for the last 27 years. I am a national and international certified alcohol and drug counselor in Georgia (CADC II). I am the co-author I’d Kill the Craving, a book that introduces Exposure Response Prevention(ERP) to professionals and their clients who want a new and innovative way to deal with their addiction. I have been employed in the criminal justice field (probation officer & in corrections). I use Harm Reduction, Motivational Interviewing, CBT, DBT, Relapse Prevention techniques, Mindfulness, and treat people as humans and NOT patients.I am honest, funny, direct, kind, caring, motivating, genuine, and have a good sense of humor which helps builds a rapport.
