Larry Fritzlan LMFT and Avis Rumney LMFT know what works. In the words of the Clinical Director of a nationally known residential treatment program: “For those who follow [Larry’s] discharge recommendations, including ongoing family treatment, the success rate approaches 100%. For those who don’t follow our recommendations, the success rate approaches zero.”

Fritzlan and Rumney describe a treatment approach that can lead not only to sobriety for the addict, but to the addict recouping lost development, and to both the addict and family members becoming healthy individuals who can function together, as a healthy family and in the world.

"My daughter has been through wilderness programs and seen drug counselors, but she just keeps on drinking. I want her to stop drinking before she drives drunk and kills herself or someone else."

"I found syringes and aluminum foil in his room. I know some of his friends use OxyContin. I think he's shooting heroin, and I'm scared. Now what do I do? "
