Traci, an addiction counsellor, explores the issues surrounding drug use and the difficulties in defining what substance misuse is.

We would love to hear what your points of view are on this subject matter... What do you define as a drug? How would you describe substance misuse?

This is just a small clip from our Addictions Counselling training DVD, which contains a practical counselling session with a woman in early recovery from drug addiction. The session has an accompanying commentary on the counsellor's thoughts and feelings about her client. Purchase a copy online here: cpcab.co.uk/shop/addictions-counselling-dvd
