Group counselling

Group counselling

The checkit group!

"I've tried smoking less weed before, but I can't do it on my own!"

"I don't really want to consume something at every party anymore, but somehow I always end up popping a pill..."

Do you recognise these or similar thoughts? If you want to change your consumption (gain control, reduce, pause or stop) but keep realising that you can't get anywhere on your own, our group could be a good support for you. Here you can talk about your consumption together with other consumers. You can weigh up the pros and cons and find ways to overcome obstacles together. The group is supported and moderated by two professional checkit! counsellors.

If you are interested, please contact our counselling team for a preliminary discussion.

The group takes place at Schönbrunnerstraße 218-220/Stiege A/5th floor. You can find directions here.
