Overcoming Addiction

Addiction is a condition where one is compelled to engage in behaviour, that is not necessarily favourable, and always self-sabotaging (even if it seems like you are addicted so something ‘good’ like exercise). 

It often involves a physical and psychological dependance, making it challenging to overcome and feel in charge of your life. Hypnotherapy can aid in addiction recovery by addressing the underlying subconscious patterns and beliefs that drive addictive behaviours.

By accessing the subconscious mind, hypnotherapy can help individuals identify and reframe triggers, cravings and emotional patterns associated with any addiction. It can also promote relaxation, stress reduction, and self control, empowering individuals to break free from their addictive habits and establish healthier, more fulfilling lives. Our approach is very individualistic where we work with each person to identify their specific void, and the mental associations they have made with the stimulus they are addicted to, so that they can gain wisdom along with the power to overcome the addiction.

How The Process Works:

The First Session:
Our first role is to clearly identify your objective and gain some background on the issue. All behavior is governed by beliefs, and we work with the beliefs you have accumulated in the subconscious mind that are holding you back. During the  session you will learn how the mind works, and discover beliefs that you have that are supporting you and sabotaging you towards achieving your goal. We will end with a tailor-made guided meditation that you can take home and listen to for the next few weeks.

Subsequent Sessions:
Each session comprises of several healing techniques, hypnotherapy, visualisations and exercises to release the disempowering beliefs and experiences from your subconscious mind. We believe that this journey is a partnership between you and the therapist, and will be giving you simple exercises to do for homework so you can maintain the shifts at home and create lasting change together.

Each session takes between 60-90 minutes, with the exception of the first session that includes a case history and is approximately 90 minutes.
