The Intentional Clinician: Psychology, Philosophy, and Therapy
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Tim Westbook and Paul Krauss MA LPC discuss the multiple elements of working to get sober, treatment options, and Tim's personal story of difficulties and recovery. Tim and Paul discuss the recovery community in Phoenix, AZ and engage in a discussion about the challenges and victories of a life being sober. Tim is also the host of the podcast "I Love Being Sober."
Struggles with substance addiction eventually began to affect every area of his life. By March of 2011, Tim Westbook hit his bottom and became willing to go to any lengths to get and stay sober. Through his journey out of addiction and in recovery, Tim brings experience, strength, and hope to the man who wants lifelong sobriety. His passion for health and fitness, long-term sobriety, and changing lives is not only what inspired him to open Camelback Recovery, but accounts for Camelback’s high success rate.
