Alcohol and Drug Evaluation

An Alcohol and Drug Evaluation, also known as a Substance Abuse Evaluation or Chemical Dependence Assessment, involves a clinical component utilizing standardized psychosocial assessment tools. The evaluation culminates in a detailed written report outlining the results.

This process aims to provide an accurate diagnosis and offer recommendations to help individuals make informed decisions about their next steps. The Alcohol and Drug Evaluation counselor conducts a thorough assessment, providing a preliminary diagnosis of chemical dependency and tailored treatment recommendations to address specific needs.

This service serves as a valuable referral or disposition resource for various entities, including courts, Family Protective Child Protective Services (CPS), companies, schools, and other third parties. Recommendations may include addiction treatment or referrals to physical and mental health practitioners, family counselors, or other helping professionals.
