Substance Use Disorder Counselor

The Substance Use Disorder Counselor will plan and conduct activities, including counseling clients on an individual and group basis. This individual must be capable of performing independent and advanced work with clients within the program. He/she must demonstrate a working knowledge of the full continuum of care. In addition, this person must have a broad understanding of how a program operates and how each client moves along in the treatment system.

Work is performed in accordance with established regulations, policies and procedures, but employees are expected to exercise significant initiative and independent judgment in discharging duties. Work is reviewed by the Clinical Director through an evaluation of the completion of assignments, and individual and group supervision.
