My office is on College Avenue in Oakland California.

I always prefer to see people face-to-face, especially for the first session.

In some cases, I work via the phone or computer.

Coaching is available for people already in recovery with goals they would like additional help attaining. We will make a contract around those goals, generally meeting once a week.

Counseling is appropriate if you are trying to sort out whether what you are experiencing is related to addiction, what to do about it, and whether I can be of assistance. This might be a one-time consultation or ongoing work towards recovery. It might include referral to a more appropriate provider.

TO CONTACT ME for either Coaching or Counseling:

1.  Reach out to me via the CONTACT page so that we can by schedule a time to talk by phone.

2.  I provide a free 20-minute phone consultation to talk about whether I have the skills, philosophy, and personality to match your needs.

3.  Our initial in-person appointment is 90 minutes long so we each have adequate time to see if we are a good match. I will do my best to help you find an alternative professional if I am not the best person for you.

Consultation is also available for groups, agencies, and programs interested in the issues of Food Dependency and dual/multiple addiction.

Presentations and workshops can be arranged for professional, corporate, and recovering groups, focused on Food Dependency and its relationship to full and vibrant recovery.
