Bryan is a former Marine who has been in recovery since 2009. Bryan offers concepts from the scientifically supported processes that helped him to realize his own recovery. These proven methods include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commit Therapy, Community Reinforcement and Family Training, Motivational Interviewing and Compassion Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. These techniques do not impose change but support change in a manner congruent with each individual’s goals and values.
