What to expect from consultations

First consultation

The goal of the first consultation is to get to know your case, summarise your addiction history and addiction treatment. During the first meeting, we discuss and clarify expectations of counseling and decide whether the provided service is right for you.

Personalised treatment plan

If you decide to continue treatment with me, we will together develop your individual plan. This usually takes several sessions, during which we go over the details of your history of use or addiction and we analyse factors that may have influenced your use as well as internal and external sources that can help you along the way to recovery.

Encouragement along the way

Throughout our cooperation, I am also available in between the consultations if you feel you struggle with some situation or you need additional support.

Advice on what to do next

In case we will find out that your expectations differ from what I can offer or that you would benefit more from a different type of addiction service, I will outline possible treatment options and will recommend you suitable facilities to contact.

It is necessary to make an appointment in advance. We are a private non-medical facility and our services are paid for directly by the client. One consultation lasts approximately 50 minutes. The cost for one consultation can be found in the current price list. Consultations can take place off-line or on-line, depending on the client's preference.
