Job Title Addictions Counsellor

General Overview

Addictions Counsellors provide support to families, individuals and groups who are or have been affected by behavioural or chemical addictions. Addictions Counsellors have an understanding of the addictive process (drug and alcohol addictions) and apply their expertise to helping families, individual and communities overcome addictions through treatment and prevention programs. They provide educational and confidential addictions counselling to individuals. In some cases, Addictions Counsellors will refer individuals to other professionals like doctors, psychologists, psychiatrists or social workers for further cognitive, behavior and medical help. They also promote the benefits of acquiring healthy lifestyles and the advantages of making healthy choices.
