Marty Brenner, CCDC
Marty has been providing guidance and counseling for the last 20 years to a wide and diverse range of people. Individuals challenged with various addictions including but not limited to - substance abuse, alcohol, and anger. Marty is a certified chemical dependency counselor and anger management facilitator.
Affectionately known as “Marty”, he has positively influenced and helped reshape the lives of many people in recovery, ranging from ex-cons to his high profile clients in the Beverly Hills, Malibu and Los Angeles areas. Marty is an excellent resource with in-depth knowledge of current trends in the substance abuse and mental health treatment fields, as well as individual options for successful recovery.
Today, residential facilities simply aren't an option for clients with busy work schedules and travel conflicts, which is why Marty tailors programs to meet the needs of these clients, whether it be in his office or a location of their choosing. His approach is casual and non-threatening.
As you know, it is difficult to convince clients that anger management or substance abuse treatment is critical. Career commitments, privacy, reputation and other concerns may conflict in making treatment the priority it should be. It is Marty's primary goal to help people rebuild lives using tried and true techniques.

Treatment Philosophy:
To handle anger in a healthy, healing way is one of the goals of my practice. I have developed strategies to channel anger into healthy, productive behavior. The problem with many is that anger, hostility, and aggression are often confused with one another. In reality, what my clients come to learn is that anger is a healthy emotion that needs to be expressed freely but therapeutically.
Anger is a feeling that needs to be vented by itself without hostility or aggression. No one deserves violent, raging behavior. Anger management enables us to function assertively and rationally when anger comes up, with the ability to protect our rights and express our needs when we feel violated.
