Check out Marc Kantor’s Instagram profile and you’ll see plenty of examples of encouragement, hope and perseverance. His posts are emblematic of his commitment as an addiction intervention specialist whose work on helping individuals and families recover from addiction and other mental illnesses is in keeping with the core tenets of J. Flowers Health Institute.
As J. Flowers’s new national business development representative, Marc oversees new business partnerships. And his message is invested with powerful resonance: Marc knows addiction struggles firsthand. Despite a successful career as a commercial real estate broker, Marc had become “hopelessly addicted” to prescription drugs and alcohol. In 2004 he underwent in-patient treatment at the Betty Ford Center, a life-changing shift that led to a career shift. By 2014 he began his training to become an interventionist, eventually earning his Certified Intervention Professional (CIP) designation. In 2018 he founded South Florida Intervention, offering comprehensive recovery services for individuals and families.
Sober since 2004, Marc has a deep and personal understanding of addiction and the intervention process. J. Flowers Health Institute is proud to have Marc on its staff as an experienced, empathetic voice in communicating the work we do.
