Services
Our professional services are all designed to help people live happier, healthier lives.
Counseling
Counseling is the core of our program. We offer it by phone, Zoom, in the office, and in the community.
We believe everyone needs someone to talk to especially when life is hard. We take the time to listen to our clients and we counsel them with the intention of comforting, calming, encouraging, and empowering them.
Peer Support
A peer recovery support specialist or “Peer Support” is a certified and trained behavioral health professional that can support you in your recovery journey. They are thoughtfully matched to a client based on their experience and ability to identify with the suffering or experience a client is going through.
Employment Assistance
One of the hardest things for a person to deal with is getting a new job. The stress of not knowing how you will earn a living and feed your family can be extreme and lead to bad decisions. Getting a job these days is difficult and in many cases seems impossible. We work with clients to help them get employed, or we help them get training and learn new skills so they work.
Case Management
In most cases, our clients need more than just a little group counseling to achieve lasting change.
Our case managers perform intakes, assess clients’ needs, and create individualized care plans for each client that can include counseling, peer support, vocational rehabilitation, and skills development housing and referrals out to other agencies. Case Managers can also connect clients with immediate help through advocacy and connection to resources for food, shelter, and basic needs.
Job Readiness Training
Sometimes you need to start over and learn an entirely new way to live, and engage in life and the workforce. We offer a suite of job readiness training courses that are designed to equip and prepare individuals to enter or re-enter the workforce in a new way. Our job readiness / soft skills training course is designed for people who want to be successful in customer service or any other job they obtain. We also provide peer support training, and 1 on 1 training in small business start up, business plan writing, graphic and web design, network marketing and partnering strategies for people who want to be their own boss.
Peer Support Certification Training
This course is designed to equip and credential individuals who have lived experience with mental health and or substance use issues to enter the workforce as a Peer & Recovery Support Specialist (PRSS).
Through a blend of individual learning, group discussions, presentations, and role-playing, participants gain the knowledge needed to identify the signs and experiences of mental health and substance use issues, and the skills and techniques to help people survive and recover from the hard times in life everyone goes through.
The Just 1 Life Peer Support Training curriculum is comprehensive, in-depth, and developed in part by experienced peer support specialists. The course is approved by AHCCCS OIFA and DES Vocational Rehabilitation (VR/RSA JT).
