Summary
Motivated and compassionate Registered Substance Use Disorder Registered Counselor (SUDRC) seeking an internship in a substance use treatment setting. I’m committed to providing nonjudgmental, client-centered support to individuals and families. I bring a calm and respectful communication style, and the ability to de-escalate tense situations. I have a strong background in both administrative and client-facing roles, with a focus on reliability, follow-through, and attention to detail. I’m familiar with client-centered counseling approaches and therapeutic techniques, and I work to build trust and rapport through empathy, clear communication, and consistency.
