The thing about all of this is that Clay would tell you this himself. He readily admits that he used to use. Most addictions counselors are former users. There are a lot of things that I would change about Hidden Lake, but I can honestly say that Clay Erikson is a good man, who is highly knowledgeable about addictions and recovery. And, is fully committed to his own recovery.
Since so many of you are committed to being "compassionate" human beings, have any of you stopped to ask why he started using in the first place. It is easier to just think that he was a wild ass doctor, who was completely irresponsible with his life and it finally caught up with him. It might be harder to condem the man if you knew that his addiction started when, at age seven, his child developed a brain tumor and died within months of its diagnosis. Does this excuse his irresponsible behavior? No. But it does shine some light on the man, instead of simply persecuting him for his actions just because you are angry at Hidden Lake Academy.
Is Hidden Lake using the fact that he is a doctor to help with marketing? Yes. Is Clay good at what he does? Yes.

No. He was/is part and parcel to abusing kids. I don't give a shit what his fucking problem is.

He is NOT a doctor. Read the documents - his license was suspended. He has a medical degree, but don't call him a doctor.

I have great compassion for his loss. I haven't noticed many direct attacks of Erickson myself. Just experiences with him and facts, primarily that he doesn't possess the necessary credentials to hold the position of AC.

Apparently, some feel deceived and concerned. Does Erickson hold any responsibility to the parents in this matter?
Why hasn't he bothered to get certified as an AC in Ga? Is it an extremely difficult task?
