Addiction counseling may involve several evidence-based approaches, and the right fit depends on your specific concerns and goals. Common approaches include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), among others. Many providers also address co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma alongside substance use. A licensed therapist can help determine which approach may work best for you — and a free phone consultation is a good way to learn more about a provider's style before booking a full session.

During a first session, your therapist will typically ask about your background, current concerns, and what you hope to get out of counseling. This is also your opportunity to ask questions about their approach, session structure, and what ongoing care might look like. There is no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with. If you'd like to get a sense of a provider's style beforehand, many therapists on Headway offer a free introductory phone call.
