LLC Counseling Services

LLC Counseling Services, established in 2001, is an Arizona Board of Behavioral Health state-licensed outpatient facility that collaborates with Adult Probation Officers, city court screeners, attorneys, and technical schools to offer counseling services for individuals dealing with alcohol and substance abuse issues. Our licensed counselors (LISAC) have extensive training in outpatient substance abuse treatment, anger management, pharmacological training, ethics, and cognitive approaches. Using comprehensive screening tools, including the Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST), our therapists assess therapy needs and DUI classification levels, providing a robust alcohol and drug education program that focuses on cognitive restructuring.

Our licensed substance abuse counselors work closely with clients to identify the underlying causes of their behaviors and take steps to change and remedy destructive patterns. Weekly group therapy sessions educate clients on the dynamics of chemical dependency and how it relates to their recovery. The curriculum is continually refined based on current research and successful recovery strategies. Clients are encouraged to journal daily to document their progress and feelings throughout the recovery process. They also develop a list of sobriety-based activities to replace destructive behaviors and create a personal prevention plan to set positive long- and short-term goals. Individual treatment plans are developed in collaboration with the therapist to provide a therapeutic and educational experience aimed at reducing recidivism rates and fostering positive behavioral changes.

Cognitive restructuring is the primary focus of our group therapy sessions, with small groups maintained to ensure active participation from all members. Individualized treatment programs are designed to assess each client’s readiness to change. Our counselors are trained to develop assessment strategies and techniques to address denial and resistance, creating a positive and supportive therapeutic environment that encourages clients to open up and share their feelings for a successful long-term recovery. Individual counseling is available for clients who require more in-depth treatment.

Our mission is to provide therapeutic services to individuals in a safe, caring environment while preserving their integrity and encouraging them to achieve maximum mental, physical, social, and spiritual well-being.
