Hypnotherapy For Drug Addiction
Are You Struugling With Drug Addiction?
Drug addiction can be a challenge to overcome, but hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective and successful addiction strategy. Hypnotherapy for drug addiction therapies work by targeting the subconscious triggers and motivators that can lead to substance abuse. By addressing the root causes of drug dependency, our holistic treatment can help to help you along the path of addiction recovery to improve your quality of life.
Understanding Drug Addiction
Drug dependency and addictive behaviour often occurs due to underlying and unaddressed issues. Childhood trauma, stress, depression, and other psychological health issues can lead to the individual seeking unhealthy, addictive coping mechanisms. Drug addictions can have a devastating effect on people’s lives, impacting work, wellbeing, and relationships. Hypnotherapy applications can be an effective way of tackling both the root causes of drug addiction, and the habitual responses, such as seeking relief through drugs in times of stress. We work on behavioural change to make drug and alcohol addiction a thing of the past.

How Hypnosis Can Help
It is estimated that 95% of our thoughts, feelings, and memories live in our subconscious. Hypnotherapy focuses on the subconscious mind rather than the conscious mind, allowing changes to happen at a deeper level. During a hypnotherapy session, the therapist guides the individual into deep relaxation. In this state, the subconscious mind becomes more receptive to positive suggestions and suggested changes to deep-seated responses. Hypnotherapy helps to provide solutions to the issues that arise when trying to stop taking drugs.
Intense Cravings
It reduces the strength of the urge to take drugs, which in turn can make it easier for you to resist taking them.
Psychological Dependence
Many people use drugs as a coping mechanism to relieve stress and to deal with the challenges of daily life. Hypnotherapy works by reprogramming your mind to find healthier, more effective stress-relief mechanisms, such as breathing exercises, doing a few yoga moves, or taking a short walk.
Breaking Routines and Rituals
Hypnotherapy treatment helps by breaking down routines and rituals associated with drug use. Our minds build routines, and often these routines can have unhealthy elements in them. By using hypnotherapy, we can help to rebuild your routines on a subconscious level.
Coping with Withdrawal Symptoms
Drug withdrawal can cause challenging symptoms. Hypnotherapy can help by giving you the tools such as breathing and relaxation techniques to cope with any symptoms.
Automatic, Unconscious Triggers
Our subconscious is very powerful. Many people link drug taking with key triggers, such as having a drink or coping with a challenging day at work. Social drug use can be common, but hypnotherapy can give you the tools to enjoy socialising without the connection to drug taking. Working with the subconscious during hypnotherapy can help to address this.
Drug Addiction and Emotional Factors
People turn to drugs for all sorts of reasons, often these can be buried deep inside our subconscious. Hypnotherapy can address the emotional and psychological factors that may be a huge part of drug addiction. By creating profound change, we can work to reduce the reasons why people take drugs, which can help to break down the addiction.
Habitual Addiction Linked to Specific Times/Activities
Drug taking can become habitual. If we always take something before a certain activity, we can come to believe that we need that to help us cope. Hypnotherapy can help break down the association between your rituals and your drug taking, by reframing your thoughts, and increasing your self-belief, so that you no longer feel you need to take drugs at certain times.
Relapse after Previous Attempts to Quit
It can take more than one attempt to quit, and the process can be disheartening. Hypnosis can help to rebuild your self-belief that you can quit, and we need that self-belief and determination to help us through the difficult moments on our journey to a better and healthier future.
I only see clients for as long as I need to, rarely do I need to see anyone longer than 2 to 3 sessions when breaking habitual patterns. Drug addiction hypnotherapy regularly leads to behavioural change from the first session!

Testimonials
I am a 60+ year old construction worker who has been smoking almost 50 years and was finding myself to be breathless in regular tasks. I finally decided I wanted to quit for good (I have attempted acupuncture, vaping, nicotine patches etc.) and I decided to Google other ways to stop smoking. I came across Kamal in Harley Street who was flexible with times and not too far from where I live. At the time, I thought the cost (£390) was steep but it is quite possibly the best money I have ever spent. I haven’t thought about or touched a cigarette since my session and it has been over 2 months. I have calculated that it saves me £80 per week so I have technically paid it off after week 5! I cannot recommend Kamal highly enough, I feel better and healthier every day – thank you! To anybody on the fence or considering this, don’t hesitate! Costly at the time but you cannot argue with the results.
