People with substance abuse issues should seek psychotherapy to address underlying psychological factors contributing to their addiction. Therapy provides a safe space to explore emotional pain, trauma, or mental health disorders like anxiety or depression, often linked to substance use. It helps individuals develop healthier coping mechanisms, build self-awareness, and improve decision-making skills. Psychotherapy also fosters accountability, encourages behavioral change, and strengthens relationships damaged by addiction. Through evidence-based approaches like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) or motivational interviewing, individuals can regain control over their lives, reduce relapse risks, and achieve long-term recovery, ultimately improving their overall well-being and quality of life
