Strange as it may seem, career counseling is often non-existent in most addiction treatment centers and behavioral health counseling even though a majority of the average person's waking hours are spent working. Yet, lack of job, career or life satisfaction can have a tremendous effect on self-esteem and become a major factor contributing to chemical dependency and such things as anxiety and depression. Comprehensive career counseling services can be a critical component in the context of recovery.
A significant percentage of those who are chemically dependent have career-related issues that have contributed to their addiction. They are bored or unfulfilled with their work, or their drinking or drug use has affected their job performance to such a degree that others lose trust in them and their abilities. Some lose their job and their standard of living.
