Not necessarily: Varies from state to state if you are pursuing a license to practice, check the board in your state. Many employers will want to see a certain length of sobriety if you are in recovery, before employing you for a cd counseling position. Do your homework to plan for the future but take it one day at a time.

Family practice : It may help because you went through it. If you truly have rehabilitated , i don't see a problem. Just be honest and open in your interview process.
