In addition to a law degree, I have a Master of Science degree in counseling, am a licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor, and am a member of the Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors of Maryland. I have personal and professional experience to aid me in helping persons with alcohol and other drug problems. I am in recovery myself, with 31 years of continuous sobriety, and have been working in the drug and alcohol field for 29 years. I have been Director of a private university in Baltimore's Alcohol and Drug Education and Support Services Department, a licensed outpatient treatment program, for 19 years. I also teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in substance abuse for the Psychology Department at that institution. I have developed a web site, http://www.alcoholdrugsos.com, where I provide ONLINE free drug and alcohol addiction information, but also, for a reasonable price, services to supplement Twelve Step Recovery and other traditional therapy, same day answers to questions, daily recovery tips, online counseling, DUI DWI evaluations, help for seniors, and help for significant others of persons with drug or alcohol problems.

My vocation and avocation are the same: I enjoy helping others with drug or alcohol problems, and do so full time at a private college, and part time online through my website: http://www.alcoholdrugsos.com. I also help others for free (give-it-away-to-keep-it) on my own time at 12 Step meetings, and online at http://www.allexperts.com/ep/2053-82289/Addiction-Alcohol/Ja n-Edward-Williams.htm

I do not like mean spirited behaviors
