MARINE CHAKHCHAKHIAN
Program Director | CEO
I graduated from California State University of Northridge (CSUN) in 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a minor in Sociology. I returned to CSUN and obtained a certificate in Business Administration. I am currently in school to become a certified addiction counselor. What inspired me to work in this field is my love for helping people. I am not in recovery and have not battled with addiction but seeing the struggles of those who are in recovery has opened my eyes to all the shapes and forms addiction can take. I respect and am beyond proud of every single person battling addiction, regardless of the number of times Read More

SELINA SWAIN
Addiction Counselor
Along with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I am also a graduate of the Addiction Studies Program approved by the California Consortium of Addiction Programs. I am delighted to wake up every morning with an opportunity to save a life from the disease of addiction. My inspiration to help individuals suffering from this disease comes from my own personal experience of growing up in a household with both parents struggling with their own addictions. As a result of their illness, it caused me to become helpless and depleted from battling their difficulties in life. Thus, throughout my journey to become a Substance Abuse Counselor, my genuineness, patience, and compassion will leave Read More





ANNE BRAND
Registered Nurse (RN)
I’m a registered nurse who believes in the treatment of the whole-body. What I mean by that is body, mind, and spirit. Before any medications I always recommend the Earth and what it has to offer to help with the ailments and other things we might need to fix inside ourselves. This could start with fresh herbs, fresh air, sunlight, a healthy diet, and a whole array of different types of holistic approaches. Of course, there are some diseases that need Western medication, and this is a reality. I choose to work in addiction because it has been a part of my life since early childhood. I have seen the Read More

MELINDA MCKELVEY
Registered Addiction Counselor
I got into this field because I wanted to give back what was given to me 12 years ago. I didn’t realize, when I first overcame my addiction, just how important it is to be given the tools and to be shown how to use them to have the life I deserved. I attended the “Addiction Studies” program at Pierce College; I immediately got hired in treatment in 2013 and have had numerous rolls from a technician to Operations Assistant and everything in between. I stay in this field because I love seeing our clients get the light back in their eyes. We ALL deserve a second chance. Read More
