Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Addictions are behaviours in which we engage to enable us to cope with deep emotional pain, usually stemming from some form of trauma in our lives. Social and environmental factors can also play a role in developing addictions. Addictions include the use of alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, smoking, shopping, etc. as a way to provide temporary relief from the painful thoughts and negative feelings that arise within us. Over time addictions establish themselves as the go-to relief to cope with our emotions, but at the same time render us less functional. Our relationships, work, and homelife begin to suffer from the consequences of the addiction. Talking therapy can help to uncover and resolve the pain that lies beneath addiction and over time help us to reconnect with our inner selves and to discover and develop behavioural responses to replace the addictive behaviour.

Joel Cantor, Weybridge Hypnotherapy & Mindfulness
Therapist, MCH, BSc(hons), SQHP
Covid and the ensuing lockdown has produced a stark increase in the number of those seeking help for various addictions.
It is not surprising perhaps that alcohol tops the list. It is the easiest to come by of course, and suddenly it was possible to drink during a work day with colleagues being none the wiser.
It is the ability to indulge in any addictive behaviour, free of the constraints associated with normal day to day life, that has emerged as the most common factor for those attending our clinics in the last year or so.
Illegal substance abuse also continues to be on the rise, and at Weybridge Hypnotherapy & Mindfulness we continue to provide a comprehensive program of therapy to finally overcome any and all addictions.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Some of the women I work with came to therapy for something else entirely, the loneliness, the exhaustion of building a life abroad, and found, a few sessions in, that alcohol or another substance had quietly become the way they were coping. Others already know that's part of what brought them here. Either way, I don't work from a place of judgement. Being far from the structures and relationships that used to hold you together can make any coping habit harder to see and harder to put down. We look at what the substance is actually doing for you, not only at stopping.
