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.

Luq Adejumo
Registered Psychotherapist, MUKCP, MBACP
It can feel like an impossible task to unpick some of the challenges that abound when it comes to relinquishing the stranglehold of addiction or dependency. I work with my clients to explore the underlying reasons why their addiction or dependency has become so entrenched with a view to finding a way forward.
