Questions about life skills

What is life skills training in rehab?

Practical groups and one-on-one help with the everyday parts of life that addiction disrupted: routines, cooking, money, work and relationships. It runs alongside your therapy. See how therapy works here.

Will I have a case manager?

Our case managers work with clients throughout treatment on the practical side: paperwork, benefits, legal obligations and housing plans. Your therapist brings them in when you need them. See how to start admissions.

Can you help with court or legal requirements?

Case managers can help you keep track of legal obligations and paperwork, and with your written consent we can confirm attendance to a probation officer. We don't accept court-mandated placements. See who we help.

Can you help me get back to work?

Yes, with job-readiness skills like résumés and interview practice, and with FMLA and leave paperwork. We don't place clients in jobs. Read about work, FMLA and leave.

Can you help me find housing after treatment?

Your team plans where you'll live before discharge, including sober living at Ascent when it fits and space allows, or another placement. We can't guarantee housing. Read about Ascent sober living.

I've been to treatment before. How is this different?

Life skills and case management focus on the practical problems that often get in the way after treatment: money, work, housing and routine. Many of our clients have tried treatment before. Read about residential treatment.

Is life skills training part of every program?

It's built into residential care and continues in PHP, IOP and at Ascent sober living, where you use the skills day to day. Compare our levels of care.

Is it covered by insurance?

Life skills and case management are part of your level of care, not billed separately, so coverage follows that level. See the insurance we accept. For the skills you'll practise, read how to build a relapse prevention plan.
