Addictions counselors typically work in multiple community based settings, including clinical mental health facilities, hospitals, community service agencies, and private practice. Our graduates are employed in these settings and use their specialized training to aid clients with addictions, co-occurring disorders, and other mental health concerns.
The Counseling - Addictions Counseling program at the Montclair State University prepares students to work with populations who are in recovery for various addictions (chemical and behavioral).
