Pete Doherty has reportedly been offered a job as a drugs counsellor at The Priory.The 'Babyshambles' singer checked out of the rehab clinic last Monday (25.09.06) after being treated for addiction to heroin and crack cocaine.Priory doctors and staff were so impressed with Pete's recovery they have asked him back to take therapy sessions.A source from the clinic is quoted by Britain's Daily Star newspaper as saying: "Pete was particularly impressive at his group therapy sessions."He acknowledged right away he was addicted to drugs and he never had a problem talking about how his addiction affected his daily life."That made him stand out from other patients who often won't even admit they have a problem."The 27-year-old musician spent a month at the clinic after promising his mum and supermodel girlfriend Kate Moss he would kick his drug habit.

He then flew straight to Dublin where he performed with his band Babyshambles and dueted on stage with Kate, 32.

After the concert last week, Pete said: "Any time off I have I'll go back to The Priory to see my doctors and the residents, some of whom have become really good friends."
