Kamran Zafar

Dr. Kamran Zafar is the founder and CEO of La Jolla Healing Center, bringing over 30 years of personal recovery experience to his practice. He understands the profound loneliness that often accompanies addiction, which frequently strikes when individuals are balancing increasing workloads, familial obligations, or even during ordinary moments. For many, it begins innocently — perhaps as an attempt to alleviate everyday stress or simply to seek new experiences. However, before they realize it, they may find themselves relying on alcohol or other substances to cope with life's pressures. Dr. Zafar specializes in supporting professionals from corporate backgrounds who require complete confidentiality and cannot partake in traditional residential treatment for substance use. His approach is tailored to meet the needs of busy clients, offering both virtual sessions and on-site support at their convenience. Dr. Zafar employs a range of effective therapies including Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, ensuring that his clients receive the comprehensive care they need. He and his dedicated team are committed to guiding individuals through this progressive disease, affirming that with professional help, recovery is indeed possible.
