This clinic focuses on improving your overall well being as part of recovery. To do this, they perform what’s called a vocational assessment. This essentially looks at your background to determine what skills you may have and how they can be used to promote recovery.
Traditionally, vocational assessments are used to gauge employment related skills. Since the stability of having a job supports ongoing sobriety, you can use these assessments as a stepping stone toward employment support.
Stressors of all types can raise the risk of relapse if you’re not ready to cope with them. The counseling program looks at some major stressors you may be experiencing, like divorce or changes at work, and is proactive about teaching you effective coping skills so you can stay on track and keep making progress.
