About the President & Founder

Thomas McAlinden, President of Sober Companion Los Angeles, has over 30 years of continuous recovery from substance use disorder.

After suffering for years with his own addiction he was able to get sober and has stayed sober since 1994. Thomas formed his company Sober Companion Los Angeles in 2021 and has made helping others a vitally important part of his life. Working with private clients as a recovery coach/sober companion and helping facilitate interventions since 2010 has given him valuable experience in the substance use disorder field. Thomas also has managed sober living facilities in Brooklyn, NY. Providing sober transport to appointments and rehabilitation centers is also part of his resume.

He has vast experience navigating not only Los Angeles but the entire country. He has a network of rehabs, clinicians, therapists, interventionists and sober coaches that he relies on to assist him with his clients. Thomas is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help you and your families. The staff he employs are all in recovery themselves. What better person to help someone with addiction issues than someone who has been there! Thomas has highly trained female companions to assist him with his female clients. He can give families help not only with alcohol and drug issues but with a wide range of addictive disorders. Thomas has clients from their teens to well into the older population.
