Screening & Assessment in Addiction Cases
Assesment involves asking targeted questions to determine if a more comprehensive evaluation for a specific problem or disorder is needed.
CONTACT NOWAssessment is a comprehensive process to determine the severity of addiction and develop a personalised treatment plan. From the first contact, whether via phone call or email, a qualified professional is assigned to the case and books a time to speak with the involved parties. The case begins by gathering information and setting general directions, which are fine-tuned later during therapy, outpatient services, or simply through life advice. This initial assessment can also lead to admission into rehab, secondary care, or a sober living environment. It considers many important factors related to the individual’s life circumstances and is a step to start moving in a better direction.
The professional assessment process includes a thorough evaluation of the individual’s physical and mental health, substance use history, and any co-occurring mental health or social conditions that may be relevant to treatment and care. More than 50% of our clients have underlying mental health issues that must be addressed concurrently with their addiction treatment. By identifying these issues early, we can develop an integrated treatment plan that addresses both addiction and mental health, improving the chances of successful, long-term recovery.
This process is conducted with strict confidentiality, ensuring that all information is handled with the utmost care and respect. The patient-therapist relationship is built on trust and confidence, providing a safe space for clients to share their thoughts, emotions, experiences and challenges without the fear or retributions. Our therapists simply act as sounding boards, having encountered a wide range of issues and are solely dedicated to helping those in need. We provide a non-judgmental, supportive environment where clients can openly discuss their experiences and challenges starting at the assesment.
Whether your substance use developed quickly or over time, this self-assessment can help you understand your situation. Remember, addiction is a medical condition that requires treatment. If you’re unsure about the next steps, take our self-test.
