How does collaboration with other providers play into your work?
If I need guidance I always collaborate with my colleagues.
How has your particular field of specialization evolved in recent years and how has that impacted your work?
Learning that an addiction isn't just limited to drugs and alcohol. I can now add other addictions that an individual may struggle with such as gambling and eating addiction.
How do you determine therapy goals with clients? What does that process look like?
I let the client choose their goals in order to be something the client can be successful in reaching that goal. The process starts with the client and they lead the session and when they are ready we develop their treatment goals together.
