Andria Firtel | CEO

In 2011, Andria and her husband Sean founded West Coast Recovery Centers (WCRC). Prior to WCRC, Andria worked at Continuum Care Intervention Services, where she guided families, employers, and friends as they reached out to those suffering from substance use disorder. Through this work, Andria saw that providing people more choices in their path of healing is a far greater long-term motivator than giving them ultimatums. This helped shape one of Andria’s guiding principles as CEO today: that all treatment must inspire and empower change through a transparent and individualized path to self-determined recovery.
