> There's lot's of places around the world that do evidence based addiction counseling

As I pointed out in a previous comment, those places have successfully rated worse than random chance. Placebos beat them on succes rates.

The highest succes rates is with AA and the 12 step. Plenty of peer reviewed articles going back 30 years back this up.

Therapy has worse rates than anything else, including placebos.
