Journal

We are looking for humans with hearts, who are interested in sitting with our clients as they share the stories about their recovery journey. These stories are uploaded to our website for potential clients who are not sure if they are ready to take their first step in recovery! This role requires active listening, an open heart, and the ability to create a safe, non-judgmental space for our clients to share their experiences.

Our focus at Above and Beyond Family Recovery Center is supporting our clients in their recovery journey by regaining control of their lives regardless of their economic status. As an outpatient, "walk-in", behavioral addiction treatment center focused on harm reduction, we are committed to meeting our clients where they’re at and addressing the broader context of their lives, including education, employment readiness, interpersonal relationships, and social reintegration.

Located in a welcoming and brightly lit building in Chicagoland, we work to achieve this goal with over 22 different weekly process groups on innovative topics such as Learning to Love Yourself, SMART Recovery, and Rage Reduction, along with comprehensive social service support. We pride ourselves on welcoming every client with a smile and fostering a highly professional and compassionate environment.

This is our quest, with an intended outcome of returning our clients to their birthright status of being responsible agents of their own destinies.
