YOUR NEW REALITY

You just learned that your loved one has an addiction that is threatening their life and stability.

You have been trying to ignore the signs. The withdrawals from the bank account. The late-night meetings. The covert phone calls. Glassy eyes. Inconsistent mood swings. Poor school grades. Dissatisfaction with work.

It is time to deal with reality. These behaviors are not in keeping with your loved one’s temperament and have been going on for way too long. Old friends are no longer in the picture, and the new circle of friends does not share the aspirations and dreams that your loved one previously spoke about achieving.

Maybe you are already in family counseling and have been told that the situation is escalating.

LOOKING FOR THE BEST REHAB

You want the best rehab services for your loved one. Cost is not foremost in your mind — saving a life is all that matters.

But what impact will the cost of treatment have on your finances? The financial implications stemming from addiction are significant, life-changing, and a critical component to the ongoing recovery of the individual and their family.

Your emotions are high. Can you objectively assess the cost of treatment with the availability of assets that you have to pay for the treatment?

I KNOW

I have been through it.

I was willing to do whatever was needed to save our son. It was terrifying. All the love in the world was not going to make the situation better. We needed experienced professionals with reputations for successfully diffusing this nightmare.

I CAN HELP

I provide comprehensive financial services for people who are suffering from addiction or going through recovery.

Addiction and financial struggles are two of the most stigmatized issues people face in today’s society. If you or your family are touched by both, it can be an impossible challenge to overcome without the professional guidance.

I can help you avoid the financially devastating consequences so that your family can have greater stability during and after this emotional time.

MY SERVICES

Recovery is a journey. So is financial stability through recovery. I can help you through all stages.

GETTING RECOVERY HELP

  • Help your loved one without sacrificing the livelihood of your family.
  • Ensure that your loved one maintains their potential eligibility for financial assistance.

PROTECTING YOURSELF

  • Learn how you can protect your assets.
  • Ensure that you are not leaving money to someone who is neither emotionally or intellectually capable of managing financial affairs — by creating and managing a trust.

CREATING ACCOUNTABILITY

  • Facilitate the conversation about the addict’s impact on others.
  • Help you learn to set boundaries and hold each other accountable.

FACILITATING INDEPENDENCE

  • Improve emotional confidence that comes with financial literacy, budgets, and spending activities by providing financial coaching. Emotionally healthy and confident people make better choices about relationships, careers, and other major aspects of their lives.
  • Assist those transitioning from recovery to independent living with their resumes and interview skills and create a strategy for presenting themselves to prospective employers.

The Cost of Addiction

A person addicted to cocaine or heroin can spend over $10,000 a year to support the habit. According to the World Drug Report, cocaine in the U.S. costs between $25 and $200 a gram, with typical prices checking in at about $112 per gram. In 2016, the average price was about $93 when, in many places around the world, its purity also reached record highs.

Financial Problems

If you think that financial problems end when an addict is in recovery, you’re mistaken: 72 percent of the survey respondents said no matter how well someone manages money during their addiction, managing money during recovery is even harder. Treatment is extraordinarily expensive, and it often takes a couple of tries.
