Grounded in real-world practice, K-State’s addiction counseling program prepares students to empower vulnerable communities and change the lives of individuals and families living with addictions. Students with a bachelor’s degree in addiction counseling will be qualified to assess substance use and provide therapeutic interventions to individuals, families, and groups within addiction treatment facilities, outpatient addiction programs, state drug courts, correctional facilities, mental health centers and private practices.
