You can use workplace employee family assistance programs often to find a counsellor / psychologist for free up to X number of sessions. Both my wife and I have used them on separate occasions for separate issues. Take a look through your works benefits to see if you have that as an option.

Addiction is a bastard to deal with for both the addict and everyone adjacent to them. Good luck.
