Jonathan von Breton, CCMHC, was a longtime SMART Recovery volunteer who played a pivotal role in supporting the growth and development of the organization’s SROL online community. A Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor, von Breton studied REBT under Albert Ellis, and was a champion of both REBT and SMART Recovery until his death after a long illness in September 2020. In 2021, the SMART Recovery USA Board of Directors established a new lecture series to recognize the significant contributions he made to the organization over more than 20 years. This lecture is the first in that series. |
