Most people know me from my radio show LOVELINE where I have been taking calls from listeners since 1982. What they don’t know is that I am board certified in addiction medicine, Medical Director for the Department of Chemical Dependency Services at Las Encinas Hospital in Pasadena, run a private practice and that I am Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the Keck USC School of Medicine.
I often make expert guest appearances on the Today Show, the Tyra Banks Show, CNN and other national media outlets to talk about sex, relationships, and addictions.
My book, Cracked: Putting Broken Lives Together Again, is about what treating addicts is like from a caretaker’s perspective. I also co-authored the first academic study on celebrities and narcissism that was published in the Journal of Research in Personality.
My current project is Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew that premiers on VH1 January 10.
I enjoy traveling and spending time at home with my wife Susan and our triplets.
