RS EDEN

Addiction Intern

August 2019 • Minneapolis, MN

What I liked

I love working on a staff of all women. I love interacting with the lovely clients, and watching them grow into their own and recover from the horrors of addiction. Feeling lucky that I was able to sit in on CBT groups and see the issues going on around the units and see how staff confronts those issues.

What I wish was different

More hands-on experiences, although I understand that isn't necessarily possible due to not being in graduate school.

Advice

Confidence is key. Understanding different approaches to addiction treatment are useful. Also knowing the causes of relapse or abuse is key to be in this position.
