Greenhouse Treatment Center Now Offers Program for Recovering Licensed Professionals
November 04 2019 - 11:17AM
Greenhouse Treatment Center, an American Addiction Centers facility
and leading substance use provider in Texas, has introduced the
Licensed Professionals Treatment Program designed to address the
unique issues and specific needs of specialists in various
occupations. Designed for credentialed professionals, this program
focuses on the specific recovery challenges this population may
face while equipping them with the skills to navigate circumstances
particular to their field.
Addiction is an indiscriminate disease and affects every level
of society. Those who are lawyers, doctors, nurses, dentists,
pharmacists and other licensed professionals are no exception. Each
of these occupations has challenges particular to their field, such
as caregiver burnout, exceedingly high professional expectations,
high exposure to trauma, licensing concerns or maintaining image
and status. All of these factors can create intense pressure and
increase the risk of a substance use issue.
According to research, 21% of lawyers struggle with alcohol
abuse, and an estimated one in 10 medical professionals will
experience alcohol and/or substance use at one point during their
lifetime.
“Admitting a struggle with addiction and seeking treatment is a
challenge for anyone,” said Dr. Casey Green, medical director at
Greenhouse Treatment Center. “For those in careers with distinct
occupational demands and responsibilities, confronting addiction
can be difficult and worrisome. When they ultimately seek
treatment, it’s important that their specific needs and recovery
issues are addressed personally and professionally so that they can
re-enter their respective field.”
Greenhouse Treatment Center’s Licensed Professionals Program is
run by Dr. Green, a psychiatrist board certified in addiction
medicine, and therapist Esther Ontiveros-Flores. In addition to
their clinical expertise, Dr. Green is in recovery and
Ontiveros-Flores has experienced addiction in her own family, which
inspired her to work in the field. Together they lead a team of
doctors, nurses, masters-level therapists, advanced practice
registered nurses and case managers in providing comprehensive and
individualized care to each patient. The staff has more than 35
years of experience treating a variety of recovering professionals,
working with state boards and conducting professional
evaluations.
