I am actively seeking adult men who would be interested in joining a group for men who are dealing with substance abuse/addiction-related challenges. The group is open to BOTH men who are abstinent from their drug of "choice", as well as to men who are working on moderation, harm reduction, etc. It meets once weekly, online, and on Thursday evenings, from 6:30pm-8pm. The group runs in 6 week "cycles" but members are welcome to continue on into the next "cycle" if they would like to. I am credentialed in both IL and NM, for IL in-network with the following insurance plans: BCBS-PPO, BCBS-PPO-Blue Choice, Cigna, Aetna and Medicare, for NM, in-network with: United Health, Cigna, Aetna and Medicare. If paying out-of-pocket, it is $40 per/group.

If you know of any clients that may be interested in a group like this, please feel free to pass along my information to them. I'd also greatly appreciate it if you would share this information with your colleagues. The next group cycle will start on Thursday 04/13/23 from 6:30pm-8pm.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, My phone is: 312.388.0901, E-mail: [email protected]

Wonderful read about how being in the present moment can alleviate fear.

When you’re afraid of what might happen, remember that all you have is now.

Currently have several openings in my practice, here in Santa Fe. I work with adults, many who deal with substance abuse/addiction issues, identity concerns, and with those who identify as part of the LGBTQIA community.
