Meet Terrence Shulman

Terrence Daryl Shulman

I've been in recovery from addictive-compulsive stealing and co-dependency since 1990. I’ve been an attorney-at-law since 1992, a licensed social worker and certified addictions therapist since 1997, and have counseled over a thousand people from across the U.S., Canada, and elsewhere who’ve struggled with various addictive-compulsive disorders. I know the secret hell people feel: the guilt, shame, fear, confusion, and desperation of not knowing where to turn. Helping people recover from addiction is more than my job… it's my life." --Terrence D. Shulman
