Brad Lamm

Brad Lamm is an author & educator best known for helping people make life-enhancing change on The Dr. OZ Show. Brad is the Founder of Intervention Specialists, a crisis intervention group helping family and friends enable a resistant loved ne to make change using his "invitational" intervention method whereby the loved one is invited to his or her own intervention. In 2008 Brad founded The Change Institute to help inform and inspire folks to live better, lighter lives through weight loss and smoking cessation programs.

Brad believes that one's circle of friends and family is uniquely poised to offer support, accountability and structure from a beginning point of love and honesty -- no matter how broken-down or discouraged they may feel. Highly motivated and with long-term recovery himself, Brad's teaching style is no-nonsense and accessible, blending hope with the dynamic nature of his work. Previously a network-affiliate news anchor, his TV work today centers on his role as a regular on The Dr. OZ Show.

His best-selling books include:
- How to Help the One You Love: A New Way to Intervene and Stop Someone from Self-Destructing
- Just Ten! Easy Steps to Weighing What You Want (FINALLY!)

Brad lives in NYC with his family.
