The People Behind the Program
Decades of combined experience in addiction medicine, psychiatry, and clinical therapy — in a six-bed home where every client is known by name. This is the team that will know yours.

CEO & Owner
Trevor Allen is the CEO and Owner of Tidal Forge Recovery. A lifelong entrepreneur, Trevor has built and operated businesses across a range of industries — from restaurants to owning and managing real estate — bringing decades of operational leadership and a builder’s mindset to everything he runs.
But Tidal Forge is more than a business for Trevor — it’s personal. Addiction has touched many members of his own family, and he knows firsthand what it means for a family to be walked through that crisis by people who genuinely care. Tidal Forge is his way of paying that forward: helping other families find the same guidance, honesty, and hope that his was given.
Trevor founded Tidal Forge around a single conviction — men recover differently, and they deserve a program built specifically for how they heal. Under his leadership, the six-bed, DHCS-licensed home in Huntington Beach is held to the standards he’d demand for his own family: clinical excellence, integrity, and a brotherhood that continues long after discharge.

Executive Director
Cody Crawford is the Executive Director of Tidal Forge Recovery and a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC-II). He has spent almost 10 years in the substance abuse industry, serving in nearly every capacity a treatment program has — operations, clinical, and admissions — giving him a rare, complete view of what it actually takes to help men find freedom from addiction.
Cody’s understanding of recovery isn’t only professional — it’s personal. Originally from Virginia, he moved to California 10 years ago to enter treatment himself and never left. He got sober in an all-men’s program alongside a group of men he remains close with to this day — an experience that shaped his conviction that men heal best in the company of other men. That brotherhood, and the life sobriety gave him, is exactly what he works to help every Tidal Forge client build for himself.
Cody earned his CADC from Saddleback College and is currently pursuing his Master’s in Social Work, with the long-term goal of running his own clinical practice. At Tidal Forge, he is dedicated to fostering a culture of integrity, clinical excellence, and individualized, evidence-based care — ensuring every man who walks through the door is met with the same compassion and accountability that changed his own life.

Clinical Director
Rachel Querry is a licensed therapist and serves as Clinical Director of Tidal Forge Recovery. She holds a Master’s Degree in Social Work – Integrated Health from California State University, Long Beach, and completed her Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology and Communication Studies at Chapman University. She is certified in EMDR and licensed with the California Board of Behavioral Sciences.
With over nine years of experience in the mental health field and more than seven years in substance use treatment, Rachel has worked across inpatient and outpatient treatment centers as well as an inpatient psychiatric hospital. She draws on a wide range of therapeutic models in her individual and group sessions — including DBT, CBT, EMDR, Solution-Focused, Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, and psychoeducation.
Rachel believes recovery is built on the therapeutic alliance, pairing evidence-based care with a holistic view of each client. Her experience spans psychoeducation and process groups, individual therapy, biopsychosocial assessments, and case management. In her free time, she enjoys hiking, bike riding, dancing, reading, and — above all — spending time with her husband and daughter.

Medical Director
Dr. Warren Taff, MD, brings more than four decades of experience in psychiatry and addiction medicine, practicing continuously since 1979. Over his career he has held leadership roles including Chief of Staff and Medical Director in both hospital systems and the private sector.
Dr. Taff earned his BA from Rutgers University before graduating from the University of Birmingham School of Medicine in England, and went on to receive an MPH from the UCLA School of Public Health in Health and Human Services. He completed an internship in internal medicine with the Veterans Administration and his residency in General Psychiatry at USC, with elective residencies at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney, Australia, and the Royal College of Psychiatry. He is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
As Medical Director, Dr. Taff oversees every client’s medical care at Tidal Forge — from detox protocols to psychiatric evaluation — ensuring treatment is safe, evidence-based, and tailored to each man’s needs.

Nurse Practitioner
Mike Kelly, DNP, is a board-certified, doctorate-level Nurse Practitioner based in Orange County, CA. A graduate of California State University, Long Beach and Chapman University, Dr. Kelly is highly regarded for his expertise in medication management and addiction treatment.
With a deep understanding of the complex nature of addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders, Dr. Kelly takes a holistic approach that pairs the latest advancements in psychiatric medication with evidence-based therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based practices. He works closely with each client to create an individualized treatment plan for symptoms of addiction, depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions.
Known for creating a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment, Dr. Kelly helps clients explore the root causes of their addiction, develop coping strategies to overcome triggers, and find the path to a healthier, happier life.
