Tom Rees - Site History
I became involved with VH1's hit show "Celebrity Rehab" in 2008. Having lost a brother to drugs and alcohol, and after 20 years on Wall Street, I wanted to delve into a new and different chapter in life. Working in the arena of addiction, recovery, and sober living - I certainly found that! It was a fascinating, chaotic, rewarding, and tremendously educational scene. Under the tutelage of Dr. Drew Pinsky and Bob Forrest, I helped people from all walks of life try to pull their lives together. After 2 seasons with the show and having established several sober living homes myself in Pasadena, CA, I recognized the need to bring this knowledge - and more - to a wider audience by way of a central website.
SoberLivingSearch breaks into the top 1% of all US sites!
Rees Networks was established to develop the first national database of sober living homes and halfway houses in the USA. The sad truth is that treatment centers can fulfill their function of breaking people from their cycle of alcohol and/or drugs - but up to 90% of patients relapse within months! I was astonished to learn that with as little as 3 months in sober living, relapse rates could drop from 90% down to an estimated 50%! So why don't treatment centers recommend or prescribe sober living? The answer is related to liability. Creating a comprehensive sober living site with maps, rules, photos, etc, was what counselors needed to help get their clients into sober living - and suddenly we had a site in the top 1% of all sites in the US as measured by Alexa.
