Mark is an international speaker, trainer, consultant, and the author of numerous books on behavioral health, including Relationship Detox: Helping Clients Develop Healthy Relationships in Recovery. Mark has been a certified addictions counselor for over three decades and has received numerous awards, including a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Illinois Addiction Counselor Certification Board.
