This is a new year, a new decade and for me, a new opportunity to build on the foundations of my 33 years’ life work.  For you as a TIPS and TOPICS (TNT) reader, you will still continue to receive my monthly e-newsletter as always. In addition to access to 7 years of TNT archives and a broader variety of free resources, you will be introduced to a menu of proprietary resources for clients, clinicians, administrators in addiction, mental health and criminal justice settings. 

Starting this month, David Mee-Lee, the psychiatrist, trainer and consultant is joining with The Change Companies and becoming Senior Vice-President. In process right now, 

www.davidmeelee.com (the website) is being merged into www.changecompanies.net. 

 

A brand new site is in the making and will be up very soon.
