Services

At Life Steps Consulting, we know that life is full of different transitions, which can be broken down into a series of steps. When you are struggling with substance abuse, movement through the transitional steps halts, causing you to fall into unhealthy life cycles, which impact your career goals, relationships, and physical and mental health. We can help you get back on track.

Individualized Alcohol And Drug counseling services

Alcohol and other drug addiction is a disease. Sadly, this disease often convinces its victim that he or she does not need help. It can also convince the family that trying to help is futile. Although there is no question this is a life-threatening illness, difficult to treat, without guarantees of success, there is also no doubt that an individual can recover. In my experience, the difference is often as simple as a willingness to try something new. Honesty, openness, and willingness are key ingredients to success.

E-counseling: Alcohol counseling online from the comfort of your home

Who is eligible? To use online counseling, you’ll need a reliable computer with a broadband Internet connection. In addition, voice and camera functions need to be functioning. We will use a conferencing provider that uses HIPAA-compliant software.

Most importantly, you’ll need to be in a secure location, free of distractions, that provides you with privacy and the ability to freely communicate

What are the benefits of E-Counseling?

  • Location: With online counseling, you are not limited in choice by your geographical location. You have the ability to connect with a counselor that’s not in your area.
  • Schedule. If you’re working full-time, traveling, have childcare or transportation issues. With online counseling, you can receive help 24/7 (by arrangement) or while you are out of town.
  • Communication: Online counseling enables you to access services and get help right away. This includes SMS/chat, video, and phone sessions.
  • Stigmas: Although this is changing, there are still barriers due to negative associations with being treated for a substance use disorder. Accessing services online can help.
  • Privacy/Confidentiality: Using secure online tools provides users with complete privacy and confidentiality. Counselors are bound by the same HIPAA and 42 CFR pt 2 regulations as we would be in office settings.
