Addiction Counsellor 4U is a Mumbai-based, independent counselling practice focused entirely on drug and alcohol addiction. We are not doctors, we are not a detox centre, and we are not a rehabilitation facility. We are people who have lived through active addiction ourselves — and found our way to a drug and alcohol-free life.
That lived experience is the foundation of everything we do. Over more than 25 years of personal recovery and counselling practice, we've sat across from hundreds of families in exactly the position yours may be in right now — watching someone they love disappear into addiction, unsure of what to do or who to trust.
"An addict minus the chemicals is a lovely person to be with. They just need to get up, clean up, and catch the bus again. We call that process recovery."
Families usually reach out to a counsellor when a loved one's behaviour has become impossible to ignore — when it's affecting the whole household. If you're seeking guidance right now, we can safely assume things at home haven't been easy for a while. Give your family hope.
A person struggling with addiction will often promise that tomorrow will be different. The hard truth is that tomorrow arrives, and nothing changes on its own. Left unaddressed, addiction can quietly unravel a family. We won't let your loved one wait for rock bottom if we can help it — by then, it may already be too late for them to accept help.
