How Does a Chemical Assessment Work?
A chemical assessment (chemical evaluation) is used to determine a persons level of alcohol addiction or alcohol dependency. With this assessment the therapist asks a series of questions regrading lifestyle, employment, personal, and legal history. We make sure our clients feel safe, respected, and are open to sharing during these questions. The therapist will take notes during the appointment, which will be done via video, and once the assessment report is completed, they will make proper decisions as to the level of treatment that will be needed.
Why is a Chemical Assessment Important?
Determining the level of chemical dependency is crucial not only for court-mandated cases, but to help our clients overcome addiction, whether it be alcohol dependency or other forms of substance abuse.

Importance of an Independent Evaluation Center
Getting your evaluation completed at an independent assessment center or private practice like ours is important for a few reasons. Our therapists and evaluators are unbiased and have no incentive in sending people to treatment and therefore provide a more accurate recommendation. Also when additional help is required for alcohol dependency or substance abuse, independent therapists are able to refer someone to the best possible treatment center instead of the for-profit centers that enlist people into their programs.
Our independent evaluation agency and private practice therapy is the best option for someone struggling with alcohol and chemical dependency!
