Default loose steering...how is this adjusted?

Hey i am new to the whole car repair idea. I am trying to learn. I have a 2001 civic 4dr sedan. I do a lot of highway driving everyday. I am noticing that my steering wheel automatically drifts to the left, as well as my car. Is there a way I personally can fix the situation or do i have to have a professional do it? i know this might be a stupid question, but any help would be appreciated. thanks.

Have you hit a kerb lately or anything? You might want the tracking re-set... or at least get a suspension/steering geometry alignment to point you in the right direction of what the problem is.

Also, check your tyre pressures and ensure your wheelweights are still on.
