In the context of psychological counselling, people who use drugs and their loved ones are provided with various forms of practical help in solving psychological problems and crises, improving adaptability and realizing possibilities for self-development. 

Issues like the nature of emotions and how to guide them, identifying dangerous situations, and dealing with co-dependency are discussed during counselling sessions. Those in need of medical and/or social help are assisted in finding it. 

Psychological counselling is provided both individually as well as in a group setting. Group counselling helps to receive necessary information, talk about one’s everyday problems, and share one’s experiences in handling them.
