Welcome to My World (Well, at Least My Blog)

Hi everyone! I’m Patrick Peters. I was born in Wisconsin (a proud cheese head) and then I chased a career to Texas, where I’ve been for the last 40 years.

My day job is in Information Technology, but outside the office my passion is helping people who are struggling with addiction. I spent a number of years volunteering with an organization that does homeless outreach and I got to see a lot of alcohol and chemical dependency. I’ve also been a member of the Samson Society for over 5 years. During those 5 years, I’ve been the Silas (the Samson Society’s version of a 12-step sponsor) for over 10 guys. So, I know a few things about “unhealthy coping strategies” (that term will be the subject of my next blog).

If you’re struggling with unhealthy coping strategies or you know someone who is, hang around. There’s a lot to learn about how “addiction” really works. As one Ted Talk presenter put it, "everything you think you know about addiction is wrong". Stay tuned.

If you’d like to explore working with me directly, book a consultation so we can talk about it. I’d love to work with you. Just click here.
