Counselling at Nasha Mukti Kendra – Healing the Mind for Lasting Recovery

Counselling is one of the most important parts of the recovery journey at Nasha Mukti Kendra. Addiction is not just a physical problem — it’s a mental and emotional challenge. Many people who struggle with drugs or alcohol also face depression, anxiety, guilt, stress, or trauma. Without healing the mind, recovery cannot be complete.

That’s why our counselling programs focus on understanding the person behind the addiction — their emotions, thoughts, and struggles — and guiding them toward a healthy and positive life.

Types of Counselling We Provide

At our centre, we offer different types of counselling based on the individual’s needs. Each type plays a unique role in helping patients overcome addiction and stay sober.

1. Individual Counselling

In one-on-one sessions, our counselors talk privately with patients to understand their feelings, struggles, and life situations.

• These sessions help patients express themselves openly without judgment.

• The counselor helps them identify the emotional reasons behind their addiction — such as loneliness, stress, or trauma.

• Patients learn coping skills, stress management techniques, and ways to control their thoughts and actions.

2. Group Counselling

Group counselling allows patients to share their experiences with others who are going through similar challenges.

• It builds a sense of community and support.

• Patients realize they are not alone in their struggle.

• Listening to others’ stories helps them gain new perspectives and hope.
  These group sessions are guided by professional counselors who ensure that discussions are positive, respectful, and focused on recovery.

3. Family Counselling

Addiction doesn’t affect just one person — it affects the entire family.
Our family counselling sessions help repair broken trust, improve communication, and rebuild relationships.

• Families learn how to support their loved one in recovery.

• They also understand the emotional pain and mental health issues that come with addiction.

• This creates a strong, healthy support system that continues even after the patient leaves the centre.

4. Motivational Counselling

Many addicts feel hopeless or believe they can’t change. Motivational counselling focuses on encouraging inner strength and willpower.

• Our therapists use techniques like Motivational Interviewing (MI) to help patients believe in their ability to recover.

• These sessions increase self-confidence, reduce negative thoughts, and inspire patients to take control of their lives.

5. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT is a scientific method used worldwide in addiction recovery.

• It helps individuals recognize negative thought patterns that lead to addictive behavior.

• They learn to replace those thoughts with healthy, positive, and realistic beliefs.
  This form of therapy is very effective in preventing relapse and promoting long-term sobriety.

Benefits of Counselling in Addiction Recovery

Counselling plays a vital role in the complete recovery process. Some of the major benefits include:

• Emotional Healing: Helps patients express pain, anger, or guilt in a safe space.

• Self-Awareness: Encourages individuals to understand themselves and their triggers better.

• Positive Thinking: Replaces hopelessness with motivation and purpose.

• Stronger Relationships: Rebuilds connections with family and friends.

• Better Decision-Making: Helps individuals handle stress and avoid relapse.

• Long-Term Recovery: Ensures mental stability and emotional strength even after leaving the centre.

Counselling Along with Other Therapies

At Nasha Mukti Kendra, counselling works hand-in-hand with other forms of therapy such as:

• Yoga and Meditation: For mental calmness and stress control.

• Detoxification: For physical cleansing and stability.

• Rehabilitation Activities: For rebuilding self-discipline and routine.

• Life Skills Training: To prepare patients for a normal, responsible life after recovery.

Together, these programs create a complete healing experience for body, mind, and soul.
