Substance Abuse Assessments

A Substance Abuse Assessment is a comprehensive assessment to examine substance use/abuse history and to determine if an individual meets the criteria for a substance use disorder diagnosis and, if so, how severe the disorder is at that time.

Additionally, this assessment will determine if there is a comorbid mental health disorder exacerbating the substance abuse. The substance abuse assessment also examines how the substance use affects the client’s daily life. The information gathered is used to create and perfect a treatment plan to focus on recovery.
