How therapy can help with addiction and substance use

Substance use and behavioural addictions can start as coping and become hard to shift alone. Therapy is non-judgemental and goal-directed: your targets might include reduction, abstinence, or harm minimisation.

Motivational interviewing, CBT, and relapse-prevention strategies are commonly used. Many people also need support for trauma, anxiety, or depression underneath the addiction pattern.
