It is good to hear you enjoyed the supervision you received while working at Nystrom and Associates as we work hard to ensure all employees get supervision and access to team consultation each week. We think by engaging as a group we can find the best direction for our clients. Our consultation is multidisciplinary which helps us treat those suffering from co-occurring disorders. We work hard to offer benefits to all our staff and are happy to see your appreciation of the benefit set we provide. Your comments regarding the limited chemical health treatment scope is a little confusing to us. We encourage all our clinical staff to use the treatment modality they feel accomplished in. This ranges from motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, to 12 step facilitation. We offer nutrition services and full array of mental health services and testing to every clients on an as needed basis. Each clinician brings an array of therapeutic interventions based on individual educational achievements. Research has shown individuals with a substance use disorder get well faster if participating in group therapy. This is why we use the group therapy as a primary therapeutic function in treatment. We also focus on abstinence as one of our main requirements of those individuals seeking help with addiction. To remain abstinent contributes to better outcomes for our clients, and helps put their disease in remission. One of our goals is total abstinence from all mood altering substance and the development of coping strategies to move into recovery. While we understand some individuals have trouble with this piece of the program we identity this as part of their illness and work with them in pursuit of abstinence.

Pros

Supervision and some internal CEUs are provided. You can be flexible with your schedule. My office is very supportive and I have good coworkers.

Cons

I was warned about burnout and too many clients, but my experience was the opposite. I have not been able to build a caseload in a year and am being forced to part-time with loss of some benefits because there aren't enough intakes. I am not the only person in my office experiencing this. The pay is low as well, there is no stipend or reimbursement for training outside of the company even while the company does not offer specific modality training, and the company has cut salary pay model as well as cutting several holidays including Juneteenth. The company's actions continue to show that they care for profit over people.
