Welcome To My Website
I'M SO EXCITED TO LAUNCH THE NEW VERSION OF MY WEBSITE.
Welcome to our website's newly revised and remodeled version, initially launched in 2009. We've updated our articles to use people-first, non-stigmatizing language regarding substance use disorder and other conditions and adopted gender-neutral pronouns. Enjoy new pictures courtesy of Pexels.com and Waterlogue Pro, as well as newly published ebooks and "Brief Lessons" available in My Store. While maintaining familiar page titles for easy navigation, we've grouped related topics and added new articles and topic pages to address the needs of our readers and current and former clients. Don't forget to subscribe to our new interactive newsletter, "In the Know Digest," for the latest articles, blog posts, educational products, and updates on new releases. This newsletter is designed to be a two-way communication platform, reflecting the educational/informational and comprehensive nature of the content available on my website, along with referrals to additional resources. Online workshops are coming soon. Thank you for your encouragement and patience!
