Who is an Addictions Counselor?

Addictions counselors are professionals who use specific knowledge and skills to promote and maintain the health of the general public. Through education, counseling and treatment services they assist individuals and groups of clients to identify, understand and overcome alcohol and other drug dependencies. This scope of practice includes teaching addictions and counseling skills as well as the coordination of addiction treatment services. Some counselors participate in administrative, supervisory and consultative capacities or conduct research. Addictions counselors are employed by social services agencies, hospitals, health units, correctional facilities and private practices.
