Wyndhurst Substance Abuse Counseling Center – Helping you understand addiction
The first step in the Substance Abuse Counseling process is to complete a comprehensive assessment to determine the extent of the problem and appropriate counseling options. Our evaluation not only includes an interview but can also use one or more research-based evaluative tools, such as the MAST, DAST, SASSI or ASI. Collateral interviews and drug screening may also be employed to further support the assessment process. If the assessment is in relation to a legal proceeding, a copy of the criminal defense history will be required and it speeds the process to bring that to the counseling appointment. Based on the results of the tests and interview, the findings of the assessment and recommendations for counseling will be explained and the patient will be given treatment referrals for that counseling.
Counseling for Adolescents and Adults
Because addiction knows no age limits, we provide counseling for adolescents, adults and their families. We know that counseling is an ongoing process that helps our clients see the benefits of pursuing and maintaining a drug-free lifestyle – not only for them, but for their friends and family as well. Substance abuse counseling will help you identify the series of complex emotions that accompany the recovery process, and any confusing feelings that you may have about your achievements.
Individual and possibly family counseling is a critical component to long-term recovery, and Wyndhurst Counseling & Wellness is committed to helping you achieve success.
