Addictions
Reclaiming better control, self-esteem, and health through facing your challenges with addiction is possible using hypnotherapy, as long as you are fully committed to such change and growth.
Always get medical advice before cutting down or stopping alcohol or drugs. Quitting suddenly can be dangerous if your dependency is high. A doctor may recommend a gradual reduction or a supervised detox to keep you safe. Also, use of medication, support groups and CBT can help, alongside hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy can help uncover and reframe the emotional or psychological causes behind the addiction, such as trauma, anxiety, low self-worth, or chronic stress, and also help manage cravings and prevent relapse.
Quit Smoking & Vaping
Smoking is addictive due to nicotine, which impacts the brain’s reward system by releasing dopamine. This can make you feel relaxed or more alert, and leads to cravings when nicotine levels drop.
Over time, both your body and mind become dependent on it, so quitting can trigger withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, strong cravings, anxiety, and difficulty concentrating. Psychological factors can also add to the challenge of quitting.
Smoking and vaping have many harmful effects, but hypnotherapy can be an effective method to help you quit for good.
Tackling Alcoholism
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic condition characterised by a compulsive need to consume alcohol, often accompanied by an inability to manage consumption despite negative consequences. Individuals may rely on alcohol to cope, and stopping can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as tremors, sweating, anxiety, and nausea. Daily functioning and personal responsibilities are often compromised.
Prolonged alcohol misuse can result in significant damage to the brain, liver, cardiovascular system, and mental health, as well as strain interpersonal relationships. Effective treatment typically involves a combination of medical intervention and therapy. With proper care and personal commitment, recovery is very possible.
Easing Drug Addiction
Hypnotherapy can be a helpful part of recovering from drug addiction by supporting changes in the thoughts, emotions, and behaviours that keep the cycle going. It works by guiding the mind into a deeply relaxed state, where it becomes easier to quiet cravings, boost self-confidence, and stay focused on making positive changes.
With genuine commitment, hypnotherapy can help reduce triggers and cravings, strengthen willpower, ease withdrawal symptoms, and address the deeper emotional issues that may be driving the addiction.
