The Research Advantage: Bridging the Engagement Gap

Drawing on decades as a group facilitator and over 41 years in recovery, I created the Precision Intensive to target the persistent gaps in traditional SUD care.
  • Research shows integrating peer-led, lived experience significantly improves engagement, retention, and long-term outcomes (Bassuk et al., 2016).
  • 75% of former clients and colleagues who responded credit this approach with meaningful, sustained change.
The Precision Intensive delivers:
  • Enduring impact in individual, group, and clinical settings
  • A proven approach that closes gaps in SUD care

The GBB Vitality Matrix™

12 Principles Matrix Framework

One Framework,
12 Dimensions, Limitless Potential


Before transformation, we must change the lens through which we see not just ourselves, but life. The Vitality Matrix guides clients to confront “what’s so” and step into a new way of being—built on clarity, accountability, and self-mastery.
  • 12 core dimensions: from Determination and Trust to Authenticity and Confidence
  • No dwelling on the past: Each Matrix dimension is a doorway to reinvent, discover, and lead with purpose

The Road To Sustained Recovery

The Bridge from Patient to Self-Actualization

I am no stranger to treatment implosion. After refusing to face my pain, I walked out—leaving treatment AMA after 21 days sober. Within an hour, I relapsed. That moment of desperation became my turning point. I reached out to the center, and they came for me. Sobriety is a door, but it’s not freedom—the real work begins after treatment.
What set my recovery apart was immediate commitment: completing treatment, 22 months of aftercare, daily 12-step meetings, getting a sponsor, therapy, counseling, and supporting others. That’s how I’ve sustained recovery for over four decades—and why I’m determined to help your clients thrive beyond treatment by showing them what sustained recovery truly requires. They need to know the truth: “The right thing and the hard thing are often the same thing.” We can’t afford to discharge them without clearly showing the value of sustained recovery and the work it takes to achieve it.
“I have never been ashamed of being in recovery. This is where I found my life—and with your support, we can help your clients find theirs, too. Reach out now to discuss how this work can support them.”
