The Sober Dad

I worked as an engineer for more than 20 years, living a respectable professional life with a great family and young kids. I was also a binge drinker for all that time, and in the later years of my drinking days, I was in a downward spiral. I was stuck in a cycle of quitting and relapsing. I tried many times to quit but I would always end up drinking. I thought that I had lost my mind and that there was something very wrong with me, damaged somehow. I tried to do it ALONE for a long time. I thought I SHOULD BE ABLE to do this without any help. I was ashamed. The breakthrough came when I realized that I did not have to do this by myself. Others had gone through the same and knew a way out. If I would only be willing to learn! Today, I have quit alcohol for good and I help other men and women quit alcohol and reclaim their lives.

How I Help You

For a long time I did not have the tools and knowledge to help me quit and I was uncapable of stopping drinking.  However, I was able to step back from the brink using Evidence Based techniques that I acquired over years of doing WHATEVER IT TOOK to quit, and by learning and practicing what I learned. Little by little, I discovered effective methods to cope with strong alcohol cravings in early sobriety and the right “Stay Sopped” mind set I needed in order to change. I finally gained the knowledge and power to sustain sobriety and bring an end to the chaos I was living in. I found the means to not only cope with life’s inevitable turns, without drinking, but to my surprise, I started using these same tools and techniques to start growing again! and to move in the direction of higher goals. 

I have packaged what I know in my Sober NOW Framework that I make available to you through the Membership, or if you need a more intensive and personal approach, through my 1-on-1 Coaching. You are not alone and do not need to do this ALONE. I can help.
