What is Family Coaching?
Coaching, in the context of family recovery, family healing serves as a beacon of direction and empowerment. Unlike traditional therapy, which often delves into past traumas and emotional wounds, life coaching focuses on the present and future, helping individuals and families set clear goals, develop actionable plans, and navigate challenges. For families affected by Substance Use Disorder or other life challenges, a coach offers guidance in rebuilding trust, fostering effective communication, and creating a vision for an emotionally healthier future. The coach's objective perspective and solution-oriented approach equip families with the tools and strategies they need to move forward. In essence, coaching provides a roadmap for families, guiding them towards a future of healing, growth, and renewed purpose.
My Mission
Fostering Family Resilience and Renewal in the Face of Addiction
My mission is to foster family resilience and renewal in the challenging landscape of Substance Use Disorder, problematic drug use as well as mental and emotional injury. I am dedicated to providing evidence-based guidance, unwavering support, and a holistic approach that empowers families to navigate the complexities of a diagnosis together. My mission is to create a space where families discover their innate strength, break free from stigma, and forge a path towards sustainable healing and emotional growth. Through compassionate expertise and personalized strategies, I aim to redefine the narrative surrounding Substance Use Disorder and other challenging conditions, inspiring families to transform adversity into newfound emotional strength and unity.

"The words most frequently used to describe what I do include identify, engage, encourage, motivate, share, express, enhance, orient, help, link, consult, monitor, transport, praise, enlist, support, organize, and advocate."
Drawing from my 21 years of recovery and dedicated study, I've uncovered that unwavering, compassionate conversation can be a beacon of hope for healing. With an open heart and empowering approach, I guide families through the maze of a scary diagnosis and early recovery, igniting a sense of safety and optimism.
Guided by esteemed figures like Judith Landau, Beverly Buncher, Lori Jean Glass, Miles Adcox, Brad Reedy, and Brad Lamm, I've engaged in continuous education, workshops, therapy, and conferences focused on family recovery. This commitment, coupled with my personal healing journey through Onsite and The Bridge to Recovery, equips me to assist families in their transition from the tumult of addiction, mental and emotional health challenges and trauma.
My extensive experience and training has earned the trust of high-profile clients, celebrities, professionals, and treatment centers. I'm not just a reliable professional; I'm an enthusiast committed to facilitating esteem-building, values clarification, and growth. The Family Coaching Services approach is grounded in reconnecting individuals with their power and igniting positive change. Inspired by Claudia Black's words, "Passion is what will continue to make a difference," I am dedicated to steering families toward reclaiming their lives and vitality.
Beyond my professional journey, I stand as a testament to long-term healing, unburdened by substance use disorder for over two decades. I've nurtured profound connections across the globe, experienced unparalleled friendships, and embraced a fulfilling family life with my wife, Robyn Cruze, and our daughters, Lilly and Chloe, along with our four-legged companions, Priscilla and Elvis.
Join me in this transformative quest to reframe the narrative of addiction, nurturing families' boundless potential and resilience.
