West Brook Recovery specializes in the treatment of adults who are employed in a professional capacity, especially those in healthcare, legal and corporate professions.
Executives, attorneys, physicians and business owners often struggle with the disease of addiction and substance abuse in working environments with a slightly different landscape than most.
Professionals routinely deal with higher levels of stress, responsibility, accountability and public scrutiny. Effective treatment begins with understanding these additional stressors and circumstances.Professionals usually share common characteristics that by themselves are considered favorable attributes:

• Confident
• Driven
• Highly Educated
• Successful
• Outgoing

When coupled with alcohol and substance abuse, these same characteristics can strenghten levels of denial and social/personal dysfunction.
