About Oregon Trail Recovery

I managed to get myself into a detox facility with nothing but the clothes on my back. I was determined to turn my life around, but I was also a single dad with a one-year-old and a two-year-old to take care of.If was a difficult time, but I knew I had to do it for myself and for my children.After 103 days in treatment and a year in outpatient, I went on to earn my Masters degree in addiction counseling. After working several jobs in addiction treatment I continued to become an administrator and counselor. In March 2005 I started Compassionate Interventions, which fueled my passion for helping others. I ran hundreds of interventions and helped people get into treatment who otherwise may not have.

Oregon Trail Recovery aims to be the first step, just like the one I took 25 years ago. I’ve committed my life to the growth and wellness of my clients, and this is a core value I’ve carried forward as we’ve built Pacific Crest Trail Detox. Our programs include provides partial hospitalization (day treatment), intensive outpatient, and outpatient programming. The goal is to help clients become well-rounded individuals through living a life of recovery.As a dad, no longer single and with 7 kids in total, I know firsthand the challenges of balancing recovery and parenthood. My personal journey with addiction and recovery has inspired me to build a program that aims to be the last treatment program you'll ever need.
