WHO WE HELP
Do you need court ordered alcohol or substance abuse classes?
If you recognise yourself in even one of these, you are in the right place, and far from the first.
A judge, lawyer or probation officer told you to complete a substance abuse program and gave you a date.
You have read the order three times and still cannot tell whether it means education, treatment, or counseling.
You searched substance abuse classes near me and found waiting lists and long drives.
Family court or child protection wants proof you're addressing your substance use before your next hearing.
HR or your licensing board referred you after an incident and needs documentation, not an explanation.
Nobody ordered you. You just know it's time for change.
WHAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T EXPECT
Court-Ordered Substance Abuse Programs Shouldn't Be This Complicated
Your court order may simply say "complete a substance abuse program." But it may not tell you how many hours you need, which format qualifies, or what documentation you'll need when you're finished. And while you're trying to figure it out, your deadline keeps getting closer.
No One to Ask
Asking means explaining why you need a substance abuse program. So you put it off another week, and another.
Waiting costs
Your lawyer bills by the hour whether you've enrolled or not. Add time off work and the drive to a local class.
Rejection
Your court rejected a cheap online drug and alcohol course. Now you pay twice!
What Matters Is What You Hand to the Court
Your court or probation officer needs documentation they can verify. Court Counseling Institute provides a detailed completion letter with your instructor’s name, professional credentials, signature, completed hours and dates, topics covered, and contact information for verification.

Frequently Asked Questions
We understand you may have questions about our programs. Here are answers to some of the most common ones:
How long are alcohol & substance abuse programs?
It depends on the format your court accepts. Our live substance abuse program runs one full day, about eight hours. The substance abuse course online takes 10 to 15 hours at your own pace. Substance abuse therapy is ten weekly sessions, or roughly four weeks with fast-tracking and court approval.
Will my court accept a court approved substance abuse course taken online?
Our programs have been approved in courts across the U.S., Canada and Australia for close to twenty years. No provider is accepted everywhere, though, and every judge and probation officer sets their own rules. Confirm before you enroll and we will help you check.
Who is this NOT for?
Not for you if your court named a provider we are not on, if your order requires in-person attendance, if it requires detox, inpatient treatment or drug testing we do not provide, or if you want a certificate to buy rather than a program to complete. Ask us and we will tell you honestly.
Do I get a certificate or a letter?
A letter. It lists your dates, hours, topics covered and your clinician's credentials. Courts want a full document, and printable certificates are the most common reason people repeat a program.
I searched for substance abuse classes near me. Do you have a location?
Every program runs online, so there is nothing to travel to. That is usually an advantage: no waiting lists, no time off work, and you can start today rather than waiting for a local intake date.
Can I do a DUI and substance abuse program together?
Yes. Many clients are ordered to complete both. Tell us what your order says and we will arrange the sequence and the paperwork so nothing is duplicated or missed.
What is the difference between a class and substance abuse therapy?
A class teaches the curriculum in a group, quickly. Substance abuse therapy is one-to-one and works on the causes underneath the use. If your order names counseling, treatment or a session count, choose therapy, because a class will not satisfy it.

If you're building a private practice and want a more organized, professional client experience...
This Client Intake Starter Pack was made for you.
Hi, I'm Jessica Echeverri. 👋
I'm an MSW, PhD(c), Psychotherapist, Clinical Traumatologist, Serial Entrepreneur, and founder of The Clinical CEO.
Like many therapists, I spent years developing my clinical skills, only to realize that no one teaches us how to build the business behind the therapy. We learn how to help people heal, but not how to create the systems, processes, and documentation that support a successful private practice.
I know how overwhelming it can feel when you're responsible for every intake form, consent document, policy, and client interaction, especially when you're trying to provide exceptional care at the same time.
That's why I created the Client Intake Starter Pack.
These professionally written, fully customizable templates give you the foundation to confidently welcome new clients, protect your practice, and create a polished onboarding experience. Instead of spending hours creating paperwork from scratch, you can focus on building a practice that feels organized, professional, and ready to grow alongside your clients.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this Client Intake Starter Pack for?
This starter pack is designed for therapists building or growing a private practice who want professional, ready-to-use client documentation.
Are these documents editable?
Yes! Every template is provided in Microsoft Word format, making it easy to customize with your practice name, branding, fees, policies, and local requirements.
Will these templates work in my state or country?
These templates are designed as a professional starting point and should be customized to meet your local laws, licensing requirements, and professional regulations. We always recommend having your final documents reviewed by a qualified legal or regulatory professional.
When will I receive my files?
Immediately after your purchase. You'll receive instant access to download the complete Client Intake Starter Pack so you can start customizing your documents right away.
Is this a subscription?
No. This is a one-time purchase with no recurring monthly fees. Once you purchase the starter pack, it's yours to customize and use in your private practice.
Are these templates legally compliant?
These documents are professionally written educational templates designed to help you build a strong foundation for your practice. Because laws and regulations vary by location, you should review and adapt them to meet the requirements of your jurisdiction before using them.
I'm just starting my private practice. Is this right for me?
Absolutely. This starter pack was created specifically to help new and growing private practice therapists save time, look professional from day one, and confidently onboard clients without creating every document from scratch.
