Professional Services for Companies

The latest 1995 government survey shows that addictions cost US employers over $80 billion per year in increased health care utilization and lost productivity. Within any company about 15% of the employees have addiction problems and another 15% have serious unhealthy lifestyle habits. A business with 2,000 employees will have between 300 to 600 people who engage in behaviors that profoundly affect that company's bottom line. For an estimate of how much substance abuse is costing your company, click here.

With a small investment towards preventing and overcoming unhealthy habits and addictions, a company or organization can reap great rewards. The proven-effective programs listed below are targeted to dramatically decrease employee lost productivity in the most effective and efficient manner.

Three different plans are offered--- all start with the basic one day lecture/workshop. The second plan is more comprehensive because of it's personalized consultations. All three plans are effective, but Plan 3, due to it's highly intense and individualized sessions and long term follow-up, has the best chance for the greatest benefit for a company as a whole. In almost all cases, I will travel to your company to give the workshop.

Plan A: Employee Take Control, Now ! workshop.

This one day workshop introduces the employees to the Addiction Alternatives approach. Topics covered include: the psychology of effective change; how you have been seduced by bad habits; how your solution became the problem; the importance of not feeling bad about yourself; ambivalence versus denial --- why it's important to know the difference; the "F+A=N" formula; the importance of focusing when changing your bad habit; the importance of "five fingers" in overcoming your addiction; sedating versus stimulating habits and why you should know the difference; the five fundamental processes by which we change ourselves; the "ABCDE's" of self change. Book this Plan Now!

Plan B: Employee Take Control, Now  ! workshop, with individual consultation and tele-consulting follow-up. Book this Plan Now!

This is a three day meeting: day one is the same as Plan A above, in days two and three I will meet with eight employees each day (for a total of 16) to design a unique individualized plan for each person. Each employee agrees to a once-a-week 30 minute tele-consultation with me for a total of 12 weeks.

Plan C: Employee Take Control, Now  ! workshop with individual consultation, tele-consulting follow-up and three additional two day site visits.Book this Plan Now!

Same as Plan B with the addition that I will visit your company an additional three times a year (at quarterly intervals) for two continuous days to meet with all 16 employees for an intensive review of their progress, and to alter each person's plan as needed. Book this Plan Now!

Plan D: Custom-Designed Plans. Plans designed specifically for certain company needs as required --- for additional employees, for example.
