"Working with Plahn Group saved my life. Prior to that, and after three premiere residential treatment facilities, as well as countless outpatient and other therapies, relocations and life changes, I found myself at 28 years old, completely hopeless and dying of addiction. My life changed instantly from the point of Plahn Group’s swift, kind, and loving family meeting intervention. Now, over 18 months later, I have a life and relationships I was told about from day one, but never dreamed possible." Read more...

"I can say in complete confidence that I would not be sober today were it not for Plahn Group. Not only did they get me to go to treatment (which was a complete feat, in my case!) they got me to stay and want to be sober, not just for my family, but for me. I am healthier mentally and physically than I have been in years and my family has happily come back together. Plahn Group has been compassionate, understanding, kind and professional. I trust them completely and will forever be grateful to them for coming into my life and showing me a better, healthier and more peaceful way to live forever without alcohol. The “bad guys” who staged my “intervention” are now my good friends." Read more...

"Without their help I’m not sure our family would still be together today. They were caring and concerned for all. Walked me through everything and were a phone call away at any time of day as I went through the process." Read More...

"Michael is one of the most extraordinary people we've ever met. He is kind and knowing in his ability to help someone move from addiction through treatment and recovery, to heal physically and emotionally, and work toward their dream life. Our daughter is now over 18 months sober, happy and healthy, working hard and loving her life, and says she couldn't have done it without Michael. We are a family again, and we can't thank him enough for being there with us every step of the way." Read More...

"Michael’s model of staying with his clients through the first week, and with consistent "in-person" check-ins throughout the treatment cycle, helps to ensure that the client remains in treatment as well as maximizes successful outcomes. He is very talented in being “present” for his clients while remaining unobtrusive to the treatment team, as he works in concert with the providers. I cannot recommend his services more highly."
