Vital Puma Integral Recovery - Dr. Charles Ismael Flores

For over 30 years, I have assisted people with a variety of addictions, from the exogenous abuse of drugs and alcohol to the ones that stem from the chemicals already inside the brain, such as sex and love addiction, abandonment patterns, sexual compulsions, gambling, internet, and workaholism. I am a Board-Certified Advanced Addiction Specialist, well versed in both abstinence and harm reduction strategies.
I use Lazarus’ multimodal approach, Wilber’s integral theory, Gorski/CBT, transpersonal/Buddhist psychology, family systems, EMDR, biofeedback and other technologies that may aid in Recovery. I’m an LPCC endorsed by the BBS to do family and couples work, a National Certified Tobacco Treatment Provider though NADAAC, and a CalGETS Gambling Treatment Provider.
As a South Bronx native who has worked with people of diverse range of ages, from teens to elders, traditional and alternative sexualities, ethnic backgrounds, socioeconomics and classes, I partner with clients “from jail to Yale.”
