My name is Michele Glaser. I grew up in New York and recently moved to Florida for a job opportunity. I pursued a degree in Social Work concentrating on Addiction. I have a Masters in Education and Social Work. I am a certified alcohol and substance abuse counselor and I am currently pursuing my PhD in Social Work with a specialty in Addiction. I am currently a therapist at Singer Island Treatment Center in West Palm Beach. It is by far the best job that I have ever had and I am lucky enough to have the most amazing people that work with me. Working in a treatment center you are always on your toes, dealing with each client on a individual basis as there is no cookie cutter approach to treatment. I My name is Michele Glaser.

Working in a treatment center you are always on your toes, dealing with each client on a individual basis as there is no cookie cutter approach to treatment. I am in recovery from an addiction to cocaine and I am able to offer my clients a perspective on addiction that I wish that I was able to have when I was in treatment. I remember what it is like to sit as the client and I am now working as a therapist which I truly believes gives me an interesting connection to my clients. There is a sense of commonality because clients understand that I have walked through this fire and there is a sense of hope that I can give.Drugs Alcohol
