listen support and encourage positive change. everyone needs someone who will not judge them. the no judging of course is only in a good counsellor

They talk to people who 'abuse' substances. A.K.A. crack heads.
Basically, they tell them why they shouldn't do it. I really don't know, never been there before. But yes, it's probably like AA meetings, just different.

Help you understand why you need a substance and how to deal without it

They get down to the source of why you use.... What triggers you to use and setup steps to help you not use again (a.a. or n.a will be a big part of that too)
Most are real cool and have been through addicion themselves
