Job Description
Job DescriptionProgram Overview
CHRIS counseling services are rooted in trauma-informed care. This care is directed by an understanding of the neurological, biological, psychological, and social effects of trauma. We assess consumers to learn if trauma occurred and whether it has a role in behavioral health needs. Some trauma includes sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, severe neglect, loss, witnessing violence, substance abuse, imprisoned family members, and abandonment. Understanding when the trauma occurred helps us tailor our responses, treatment and services. Trauma-informed assessments and interventions always acknowledge, respect, and integrate cultural values, beliefs, and practices.

Provide positive role-modeling to consumers/clients
