To become effective at addiction counselling, the addiction counsellor must make a commitment to learning and develop a set of core skills that will collectively define their individual counseling toolbox. The Addiction Counsellor's Toolbox provides both addiction counsellors in training and seasoned professionals with core skills needed to work with persons with addictive disorders. These skills include communication, counselling, crisis intervention, problem solving, assessment, and treatment planning skills, as well as counselling theories and techniques and addiction recovery tools.
