Work in a Detox/Residential Treatment of Drug and Alcohol Addiction

After completing the course work and educational component of your counseling certification journey, you are required to obtain an internship. What population are hoping to work with? How do you think your experience, skills, and what you have learned thus far, has helped to prepare you to work with this population?
I plan to work within detox/residential treatment of drug and alcohol addiction. I have 8 years experience in this setting as a Behavioral Tech, and am a recovering addict myself. Please use this as the basis of this paper.
Here are the areas your instructor is looking for:
Comprehension: Paper demonstrates clear understanding of terms and concepts. Solid independent thinking is evident. Appropriate support is provided.
Analysis: Paper reflects high standards of analysis. There are multiple connections to readings and outside sources. Relates relevant personal experience to concepts.
Grammar, Style, Format: Style and tone of writing is consistent. Paper follows the guidelines described above. Displays almost no errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation or mechanics. Papers should demonstrate your understanding of the concepts and theories covered in the reading and supplemental material for the unit as well as ways in which these concepts relate to current events and/or your personal experience. Students must use relevant terminology while defining concepts/theories in their own words.
• Papers should be typed using Times New Roman, 12 pt. font, double-spaced, with 1” margins, approximately 1 to 2 pages in length.
• Papers should include outside sources to support the argument presented; citations must be in APA format.
