Chrysalis Recovery Center LLC

Who We Serve

Chrysalis Recovery Center LLC provides counseling and treatment support for people who are struggling, whether that is with mental health, substance use, or both together.

Our practice specializes in comprehensive addiction counseling and treatment support.

Many of our clients are also involved with other programs — DCYF, the courts, a state impaired driver requirement, or a professional monitoring program — and we are experienced at working alongside those systems rather than around them.

Over the years we have worked with particular populations often enough to build real depth of knowledge. That means understanding the specific hurdles these clients face, and the specific knowledge a provider needs to work with people in a given field. These include, but are not limited to, the groups below. Whatever brings someone here, they are treated with the same respect.

Safety-sensitive professionals

Who this is. Employees in safety-sensitive positions regulated by a U.S. Department of Transportation agency. Commercial driving and trucking, aviation, railroads, public transit, maritime, and pipeline and hazardous materials are examples. These positions are defined by the functions performed, not the job title, so roles that do not sound like driving jobs can be covered.

What brings them here. A positive, refused or otherwise unresolved drug or alcohol test puts their safety-sensitive duty on hold while the DOT process is completed.

What we offer. SAP evaluations and the return-to-duty process, plus any education, counseling or aftercare the service plan requires. Follow-through within 30 days matters, and a reassessment may apply after 30 days.

Commercial drivers are also covered in the Commercial drivers group below.

Veterans

Who this is. Veterans and members of the military community.

What brings them here. An impaired driving charge or an impaired driver requirement, difficulty readjusting after service, or stress, sleep and substance use concerns they would rather handle privately.

What we offer. Individual, family and group counseling; evaluations; IDCMP and aftercare where there is an impaired driving requirement; and telehealth, which means help without a long drive or a waiting room. We accept most major insurance plans. Chrysalis holds a contract with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs as a VA care provider. We accept TRICARE.

Law enforcement and first responders

Who this is. Police, fire, EMS, correctional and dispatch staff.

What brings them here. A DWI or impaired driving charge, an internal requirement, or accumulated stress and substance use that they cannot discuss at work.

What we offer. Confidential individual and group counseling, evaluations, IDCMP where required, and aftercare. Asking for help can feel like a risk to a career, and we understand that.

Licensed, certified or otherwise credentialed professionals

Who this is. Physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, counselors, attorneys and other licensed, certified or otherwise credentialed professionals.

What brings them here. A DWI or impaired driving charge, a licensing or monitoring requirement, or the strain of caring for others while their own wellbeing goes unattended.

What we offer. Evaluations, individual and group counseling, IDCMP where required, and aftercare. We work with people whose professional standing is at stake. Our staff are licensed in New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Vermont and Maine, so clients can be seen across state lines by telehealth — which matters for anyone who would rather not be seen walking into a local office.

If your credential, license or certification is tied to your record or your wellbeing — including teachers, school staff and other state-certified professionals — this section is for you.

Healthcare professionals

Nurses: registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), governed by the New Hampshire Board of Nursing. Physicians and allied health professionals: physicians (MDs and DOs), physician assistants (PAs), emergency medical technicians (EMTs), paramedics and pharmacists.

Behavioral health and substance use clinicians

Licensed alcohol and drug counselors (LADCs), master licensed alcohol and drug counselors (MLADCs), licensed clinical mental health counselors (LCMHCs) and licensed independent clinical social workers (LICSWs).

Legal and public safety professionals

Attorneys admitted to the New Hampshire Bar, law enforcement officers and correctional staff. See the law enforcement and first responders section on this page.

Commercial drivers

Individuals holding a commercial driver's license (CDL), who are covered by federal Department of Transportation return-to-duty requirements alongside New Hampshire state requirements. See how SAP evaluations work.

Educators

Certified public school teachers and administrators, overseen by the New Hampshire Department of Education. This includes school staff at every level, from classroom teachers to building and district administrators.

For professions with a formal monitoring or assistance program, we also coordinate with the program that oversees the client's compliance.

If you are monitored by a professional program

For physicians. In New Hampshire, medical doctors are regulated by the New Hampshire Board of Medicine, which operates under the Office of Professional Licensure and Certification (OPLC). Doctors are legally required to report DWI convictions, and disciplinary actions regarding substance abuse, to that board. The board and the OPLC contract with an independent nonprofit, the New Hampshire Professionals Health Program (NHPHP). NHPHP conducts intake assessments, refers the physician to treatment, and provides confidential long-term monitoring to document recovery and compliance with mandated alcohol programs.

For attorneys. In New Hampshire, attorneys are regulated by the New Hampshire Supreme Court, which oversees the legal profession through the New Hampshire Attorney Discipline Office (ADO), which reviews and prosecutes professional misconduct including conduct that reflects on fitness to practice law. The Supreme Court establishes and uses the New Hampshire Lawyers Assistance Program (NHLAP). Under Supreme Court Rule 58, NHLAP provides confidential professional monitoring, tracking alcohol screening compliance and recovery progress, to support a safe return to legal practice.

Chrysalis has worked with clients whose care is monitored by these programs, and we understand the reporting and compliance they require. With a signed release of information, we coordinate directly with the client's monitoring program and share documentation, so the client is not repeating assessments, counseling or requirements they have already completed. This is confidential and handled with discretion.
