Rehabilitation counsellors help people with physical, mental, developmental, or emotional disabilities live independently. They work with clients to overcome or manage the personal, social, or psychological effects of disabilities on employment or independent living. Rehabilitation Counsellors can be found in private practice, in rehabilitation facilities, hospitals, universities, schools, government agencies, insurance companies and other organizations where people are being treated for congenital or acquired disabilities. Over time, with the changes in social work being more psychotherapy-oriented, rehabilitation counsellors take on more and more community engagement work, especially as it relates to special populations. Rehabilitation counsellors help disabled people overcome physical and emotional impairments that interfere with daily functions, including the ability to work.
