I offer professional counseling services on Sweetman’s Lane in Perrineville (Millstone) New Jersey, to children, teens and adults.  Licensed as a NJ Professional Counselor  and Clinical Alcohol & Drug Counselor, I utilize a supportive motivational  approach which I have developed over my 20 years as a counselor and coach.   My office hours are weeknight evenings and weekend mornings.  

I also provide assessment and counseling services to Monmouth County residents convicted of DUI and are in need of meeting IDRC requirements.  I do not accept insurance, however, an itemized receipt with all necessary codes is provided to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

For a free online screening test to help you decide if you may have a problem with drugs and/or alcohol visit this site:  www.drugscreening.org.  After you complete this screening, forward the results to me in email form and I give you feedback and suggestions at no charge.

Would you like to know what I feel is the key to sustained recovery?  If so, visit my blog entry titled:  The Key to Sustained Recovery.  If you have chosen not to read this, maybe you should wonder why.  Maybe it is your AV or Addictive Voice.  To read more about your AV and how to defeat it, visit the Rational Recovery Site.

For the latest research on how drugs and alcohol effect the brain and cause addiction visit the National Institute on Drug Abuse for this new free booklet: http://www.nida.nih.gov/scienceofaddiction/

A recent study suggests that 12 Step Programs (AA, etc) boosts recovery by 30%.  Check it out by clicking here and think about attending a meeting.
