Support in English
Welcome to vista Berlin.
Do you have questions about alcohol, drugs or medication? Are you worried about your own substance use or about someone close to you?
At vista, we support people with substance use and addiction-related concerns, as well as their families, partners and friends. Our services are free of charge, confidential and open to everyone, regardless of your background, nationality or residence status.
What would you like to change?
Whether you want to better understand your substance use, reduce your use, stop using, use substances more safely or simply talk to someone about your situation, we are here to support you.
Together, we will find solutions that match your individual needs, goals and circumstances. You are also welcome if someone else encouraged you to seek support, for example a family member, your partner, a doctor or a public authority.
