I had the same issue with my DualSense. I fixed it by updating the firmware through the PlayStation settings. Worth a shot!
Cleaning the analog sticks with isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth can help remove any dirt or debris causing the drift.
Use compressed air to blow out any dust or particles stuck in the joystick mechanism. Be careful not to blow too hard!
Honestly, sometimes the best solution is to just get a new controller if the drift is too bad. It happened to me and it was worth it.
