Short answers for people considering a career in addiction treatment.
Clinical roles include addiction and substance use counselors, therapists and clinical social workers, nurses (RN and LPN), nurse practitioners, physicians and psychiatrists, and clinical directors. Non-clinical roles include behavioral health technicians, peer recovery specialists and recovery coaches, case managers, admissions and outreach staff, and the administrative, dietary, facilities and finance teams that keep a treatment center running.
It depends on the role. Counselor positions usually require a state counseling credential such as a CADC, CAC or LADC, or a clinical license such as an LPC, LCSW or LMFT, and the specific credential names and requirements are set by each state. Nursing roles require the matching nursing license. Many support roles, including behavioral health technicians and peer recovery specialists, are entry points that require a high school diploma, training and, for peer roles, lived recovery experience plus a state peer certification where one exists.
Yes. Behavioral health technician, residential aide, peer recovery specialist, recovery coach, admissions and many operations roles do not require a degree, and employers often provide on-the-job training. Credentialed and licensed positions do require the education that the credential specifies.
Physician, psychiatrist, medical director and psychiatric nurse practitioner roles are typically the highest paid, followed by clinical directors and licensed clinicians. Pay varies widely by state, setting and employer. Where an employer states compensation in a posting, it appears on the listing; Kick the Habit does not publish estimated salaries.
Some roles, such as telehealth counseling, utilization review and admissions call-center positions, can be remote or hybrid. Most direct-care positions in detox, residential and inpatient settings are on site. Listings on Kick the Habit are marked remote only when the employer states it; when a listing shows a street address, the role is on site.
