Mike attended Fordham University in New York and received his bachelor of science degree in Alcohol and Drug Counseling from Metropolitan State University in Minnesota. He is a Certified Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor (CADC 2).

Mike began his career working with state funded clients in Minneosta at Twin Town Treatment Center's men's program. He then worked at The Retreat in Wayzata, Minnesota where the treatment focused on clients finding a spiritual solution to the void they filled with alcohol and drugs.

Mike did his first residency as a clinician at Hazelden Center for Youth and Families where he worked with adolescents and families. He then continued his residency at Progress Valley men's halfway house.

Mike worked as the Western Regional Director for Addiction Intervention Resources (AIR). During his tenure with AIR he directly handled countless interventions and established ongoing relationships with respected treatment centers across the country.

Mike's knowledge and experience in the area of addiction intervention and treatment is not limited to the classroom and intellectual pursuits -- prior to his decision to pursue a career in this field, Mike himself suffered through years of drug addiction before making the decision to enter treatment, get sober and stay on the path of recovery.

David J. Eichhorn, LADC, CSAC, ICADC
Director of Intervention Services

David has worked in the field of addiction for over 20 years. He was the program supervisor at the Hazelden men’s unit in Center City, MN.  Prior to joining Bayer Interventions Dave served as the Director of Intervention Services for Addiction Intervention Resources, Inc.  Dave is licensed in the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, is reciprocated in approximately 40 other states, and is Internationally Certified. Dave has performed hundreds of interventions  all over the world. His passion is his work, and the effort to raise the bottom up so that the addict or alcoholic does not need to hit the proverbial rock bottom.

David's Treatment Philosophy:

By using a combination of intervention models, the family moves away from being held hostage by the addiction and the addict moves towards making a decision to get help. When everyone embraces this shift there is an increased chance of recovery. By raising the bottom up we are putting an end to the enabling behaviors and empowering the family to take back their voice and move forward in a healthier direction. For the addict or alcoholic it will be a life changing day, a new beginning.
