Addiction Treatment with Counselling and Hypnotherapy
Feeling hurt, confused, or out of control? Has your addiction taken over your life? Addictions, and the behaviours they cause and encourage, are diverse in nature and severity. They also do not occur in isolation. Addictions often have a negative impact on our health, emotional well-being, concentration, and, most importantly on the relationships with those we love.
Regain control of your life through addiction hypnotherapy treatment and counselling through my Bayside clinic in Melbourne. My addiction counselling and hypnotherapy treatment services are available either in person or online via Skype, if you can't get to Brighton (counselling only).
Do I need treatment for addiction?
There are different kinds of addictions and different reasons why people become addicted. However, most addicts are united in their struggle to stop. While many people believe that addictive behaviour is associated with genetic, personality, social, cultural, psychological and environmental factors, most addicts are seeking satisfaction or happiness through their addiction. Often the happiness gained through the addiction is superficial and temporary. In the worst cases, it can have long lasting negative effects on you and the people you love.
If your addiction is robbing you of good health, emotional well-being, happy relationships and a prosperous future, then seek addiction treatment today and regain your sense of control.
I treat many kinds of addictions at my Brighton Melbourne clinic. Here are a few examples:
Admitting that you have a problem is the first, courageous and extremely important step in the treatment of your addiction. If you are considering counselling or hypnotherapy treatment, then I encourage you to contact me immediately to discuss ways in which I can help you overcome the causes of your addiction and its related behaviours.
What can I expect from a session?
I am an experienced counsellor, taking an approach that is focused on you as an individual, and one which helps you to discover the causes of your addiction, rather than just dealing with common symptoms. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental environment for you to work with me, your therapist, to achieve consistent progress towards your goal.
During your first session with me, you'll be able to comfortably share your problem, ask any questions you'd like to ask, and decide if you believe I am right for you. This initial consultation will also provide me with valuable insight into the issues involved in your addiction and what you'd like to achieve so I can prepare a suitable counselling plan for you. In some cases, addictions can be managed by changing habitual thoughts and responses; thereby naturally resolving the underlying causes of addictive behaviour.
I draw upon several counselling and hypnotherapy treatment approaches to assist you to overcome your addiction. Depending on your individual circumstances, my approach might include one or a combination of humanistic person centred therapies such as Buddhist Mindfulness Meditation exercises, existential therapy, psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, dream work, NLP, hypnotherapy treatment and other similar techniques.
How long will my addiction treatment take?
It's very likely that changes will begin to occur within the first few visits for addiction treatment. If no progress is evident after 3-4 sessions, then I will consider introducing alternative techniques to address your addiction. Keep in mind that your progress can be helped or hindered by your personal attitude towards resolving your addiction, your participation in the sessions and underlying causes that are involved.
At my Melbourne clinic I use a short outcome and session rating tool to track of the effectiveness of each of your addiction treatment sessions. This allows me to monitor your progress with you and ensures that you always remain comfortable with your therapist.
