From performing at Abbey Road Studios to earning a PhD from Oxford to sleeping in Manchester's trash bins - Dr. Robb Kelly's journey is a masterclass in transformation. Known as the "Gordon Ramsay of Addiction" for his no-nonsense approach, Dr. Kelly revolutionized addiction treatment through neuroscience and raw honesty. Now based in Texas, Dr. Kelly combines neuroscience, behavioral psychology, and his own lived experience to offer a unique perspective on recovery. His methods challenge traditional addiction treatment, boasting significantly higher success rates than conventional approaches. His practice spans five locations worldwide, where he works with everyone from celebrities to CEOs to everyday people struggling with addiction. His work includes pioneering research on PTSD in addiction, innovative subliminal messaging techniques, and the development of the groundbreaking "9D" therapy approach.

Dr. Kelly's extraordinary leading voice in addiction recovery proves his core belief: that 100% recovery is possible for anyone, regardless of how far they've fallen. Today, he continues to push the boundaries of addiction treatment while maintaining that the key to recovery lies not in the substance, but in healing our thinking patterns and childhood trauma.
