  • Chris is one of the most insightful professionals in world of recovery

    I am writing this review to thank Chris for his incredible pro bono work for those that are struggling. Chris's work in the field is by far the most professional and efficient way to recovery I have witnessed. After receiving both impatiant and outpatiant treatment many times over the last couple of decades, I found his principles to be the best aprouch to true full recovery. As we all need to find our own road, his was the the right one for me. Highly recommend him!!
