Alcohol & Substance Use Treatment for Executives and Professionals
Private, individualized treatment for adults whose personal and professional lives require discretion. Goals are set with you, not for you.
If any of these patterns sound familiar, this is the work I do.
Drinking has quietly become how you manage pressure, decompress after long days, or reward yourself for hard work.
You plan to have one or two and end up at six. The intention you set does not hold once drinking begins.
You need help, but not at the cost of your reputation, your career, your credentialing, or your anonymity.
You are not convinced abstinence is the answer for you, but you know the current pattern is not sustainable either.
Most addiction programs decide your goal for you before you walk in the door. The Washton Group does not. Some patients arrive ready to commit to abstinence. Others want to learn whether moderate drinking is a realistic goal. Others are just trying to figure out whether they have a real problem at all.
All of these are clinically legitimate starting points. The work begins with what you actually want and what your situation actually calls for, not with what a predetermined recovery framework says you should want.
Different situations call for different paths. Choose the one that fits.
Private, evidence-based care designed around the realities of high-pressure professional life.
Confidential outpatient care for adults across the alcohol use disorder spectrum, with goals individualized to your situation.
Structured programs for adults who want to reduce their drinking without committing to abstinence.
