Addiction Counselor Opportunity at The Concerted Care Group

When a person decides to seek drug addiction counseling, it is probably the most difficult decision of their life. It represents a failure to them as they know they cannot overcome addiction on their own. 

An addiction counselor becomes the most trusted person in their life. The patient will be vulnerable and must feel completely comfortable working closely with their addiction counselor. A trusting and strong counselor-patient relationship is crucial to reach the goal of sobriety. 

According to research cited in DrugAbuse.gov, “most addicted individuals need at least three (3) months in treatment to significantly reduce or stop their drug use and that the best outcomes occur with longer durations of treatment. Recovery from drug addiction is a long-term process and frequently requires multiple episodes of treatment.” Relapses can and do occur, which then triggers reinstatement and adjustments to a drug addiction treatment program. Some drug addiction treatment patients leave their programs before they are completed. Thus, the need for experienced drug addiction counselors who can engage and keep patients in treatment. 

The Concerted Care Group has a career opening for an Addiction Counselor. See details below.

Ten Great Drug Rehab Gifts for the Holidays

Christmas and New Year’s will be difficult this year as the pandemic restrictions will

keep many of us at home, away from loved ones and friends. Office parties, family get-

together, and dinners are now limited to Zoom. ***

 

It can be challenging and depressing. However, a gift in the mail from friends,

colleagues, and family will cheer anyone up. It’s almost as good as being there.

If you have a loved one who is recovering from drug addiction, there are a number of

appropriate, compassionate, and inexpensive gifts you can give them this holiday:

 

  1. A journal: Journaling is a recommended way for people in recovery to be mindful

and to process their feelings during this time. They can also reflect later on their

feelings and struggles. Additionally, it also gives them a first-hand perspective on

how far they have come. It can be raw, honest, and encouraging. A journal is one

of the most practical, and appreciated, gifts you can give.

  1. Photo album: Most albums are kept in smartphones or computer memories.

However, this gift, a hard copy photo album can have several uses. Addiction

can cause family rifts. A photo album filled with photos of family and friends

reminds them of their journey and of those people who support them. You should

leave a few pages blank so they can fill it with meaningful photos.

  1. Fitness Center Membership: Individuals in recovery need physical activity. A

fitness center membership can do wonders for their mind and body. It gets their

mind off of their situation and helps them sleep better, too. They may also meet

people who can encourage them along their journey. (Of course, fitness center

participation varies due to COVID restrictions.)

  1. Personalized jewelry: One constant reminder of their recovery achievements

could be a personalized ring, necklace, or bracelet. It could be embossed with

the first day of sobriety and have their initials on it. (Amazon carries a large

number of jewelry items that celebrate serenity and sobriety.)

  1. Your time: Your time is priceless. So, spending it with someone in recovery is as

special and compassionate as it gets. Take time out from your busy holiday and

schedule coffee, a walk, a movie, or a Zoom call with them. Don’t rush it or look

at your watch. Just sit with them and listen, laugh, cry, and enjoy their company.

You will never regret it and it will bring happiness to their holiday.

 

Holiday arrangements can be complicated by COVID restrictions, but they aren’t

impossible. Make it memorable by giving a special gift to a loved one in recovery.

 

If you or someone you know needs substance abuse treatment, consult one of our

experienced counselors. The Concerted Care Group of Central Baltimore, MD, and

Brooklyn, MD, has a compassionate behavioral health team that includes therapists, a

Psychiatric nurse practitioner, psychiatric and medical providers a nurse practitioner,

and a psychiatrist. Services include individual, group, and family therapy for adults and

adolescents. Group therapy and psychiatric services are available for adults.
