Hypnotherapy for Addiction & Substance Abuse: Break Free and Take Back Control
Addiction isn’t just a habit—it’s a deeply ingrained subconscious pattern that can feel impossible to break. Whether you're struggling with alcohol, drugs, nicotine, or other substances, you are stronger than the cravings, and lasting change is possible.
Hypnotherapy is a powerful, natural approach that helps rewire the subconscious mind, eliminate destructive patterns, and create healthier coping mechanisms. Through guided hypnosis, you can:
✔ Break the Psychological Hold of Addiction – Reprogram your mind to reject cravings and self-sabotage.
✔ Reduce Triggers & Urges – Replace the desire for substances with healthier habits.
✔ Heal Emotional Wounds – Address underlying stress, trauma, or self-doubt that fuels addiction.
✔ Strengthen Willpower & Self-Control – Regain confidence in your ability to stay clean and sober.
You don’t have to fight addiction alone. With hypnotherapy, you can break free, reclaim your life, and step into a healthier, more empowered future.
Take the first step toward freedom—schedule a session today.

Margaret Shouse
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Fighting addiction is one of the hardest things to go through. Due to always having my sessions being specific to my clients needs I can adapt an abstinence only approach or a harm reduction approach. Beating addiction does not have one linear way of success. I am here to meet you where you are at in this moment, and to work together to figure out what the best path forward is for you.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.
