Addiction counselling with Daren is for people who know drugs or alcohol are taking more than they are giving, but do not want a cold clinical conversation or a lecture.
What the work can cover
The sessions can help someone look honestly at patterns, risk, denial, family impact, relapse triggers and the next practical step. This can sit before rehab, after treatment, alongside meetings, or as a private first step when someone is not ready for residential care.
- Private drug and alcohol recovery conversations.
- Remote support or in-person work by arrangement.
- Accountability around routine, relapse risk and decision making.
- Clear signposting when detox, medical care or residential treatment is the safer route.
Who it may suit
It may suit professionals, families, people leaving treatment, people hiding the scale of their use, or anyone who needs someone direct enough to challenge the story they keep telling themselves.
Daren is not an emergency service or detox provider. If withdrawal, overdose risk, self-harm or immediate danger is present, urgent medical help comes first.
