Psychotherapeutic Intervention for Addictive Behavior

Introduction

The counseling is a structured and permissive service that allows customers to better understand themselves so they can be able to make positive steps in the light of the new approach they want to give their life. This theory follows all techniques employed for aimed at developing an open relationship and permissive understanding of oneself during the treatment process and beyond and the trend towards a positive action on its own initiative.

The form of psychotherapy and counseling explicitly or implicitly raise the question of resource changes for the client. This may be a state of relaxation, confidence, calmness, and prudence, etc. The idea is to find a resource change (inside or outside the client) and to add this resource to the problematic experience.
