An addiction counsellor helps people who are struggling with drug, alcohol, or behavioural addictions. The role involves providing one-to-one or group therapy sessions, supporting clients as they work through their problems, and helping them find ways to cope and recover. Counsellors often work in settings such as the NHS, charities, rehabilitation centres, or community organisations. They assess clients' needs, develop treatment plans, and offer practical advice and emotional support. Training usually involves a relevant degree or diploma in counselling, alongside specialised training in addiction. Good communication skills, empathy, and patience are essential for this profession.
