Stress & Wellness Consulting • Occupational & Clinical Psychology
Rehabilitation counselling is focused on helping people who have disabilities achieve their personal, career, and independent living goals through a counselling process.
Rehabilitation Counsellors can be found in private practice, in rehabilitation facilities, hospitals, universities, schools, government agencies, insurance companies and other organizations where people are being treated for congenital or acquired disabilities. Over time, with the changes in social work being more psychotherapy-oriented, rehabilitation counsellors take on more and more community engagement work, especially as it relates to special populations.
Some rehabilitation counsellors focus solely on community engagement through vocational services, others in various states qualify as both a certified rehabilitation counsellor (CRC) and a licensed professional counsellor (LPC), enabling them to focus on psychotherapy.
