At CMC, we believe that effective plans for change must begin with an in-depth understanding of the circumstances leading each individual to the point where they need to contemplate making significant life change. In this endeavor, we seek to understand both the strengths and areas of difficulty for each client. We also work to develop a thorough understanding of effective paths for change. The consultation and initial recommendation may be used either as a stand-alone service for evaluation of substance use and compulsive behaviors, or as the point of entry into a variety of other treatment services.
