Addiction is a treatable, chronic disease. Genetics, brain chemistry, environmental factors, and life experiences all play a role in the disease, and past trauma is often at the root of many addictions. For many who struggle with addiction, it can be helpful to know that risk factors and levels vary by person, but like any chronic condition, focusing on the cause and the symptoms in treatment offer the best chance for recovery.

My ambition to become a counselor was inspired principally by my experience as a teen when my peers were mistreating a foster teen who had no friends. This gave me an understanding of how vulnerable some individuals are and how needy of the basic support which allows us to grow and develop into healthy and well-adjusted adults. At the same time it introduced me to the role of the helper or...
