Effective help to overcome the challenge of addictions using Hypnotherapy, CBT or Counselling in Hampshire
Effective Help for Gambling, Porn, Alcohol and Drug Addictions in Hampshire
Similar urges are responsible for addictions. Whatever the addiction, whether it is an addiction to alcohol, gambling, porn, drugs and so on, it is often driven by an inner need that responds well to our unique style of therapy.
Hypnotherapy and counselling can help someone with addictions by addressing the underlying psychological and emotional factors that contribute to addictive behaviours. Addiction is a complex issue that can be caused by a variety of factors, such as environmental factors, and past traumas.
Combining hypnotherapy and counselling can be a powerful approach for treating addiction. By addressing both the psychological and emotional factors that contribute to addiction, the person can develop a more comprehensive understanding of their addiction and learn strategies to overcome it.
Substance abuse
No one sets out to become a drug addict or alcoholic. Most substance abusers use drugs or alcohol to mask or hide from emotional or physical pain. They see it as a way to escape from their problems. However, far from making these problems go away, substance abuse actually makes the problems worse.
Substance abuse can have a negative effect on the user’s mental and or physical health and often leads to premature death. The need to take drugs or consume alcohol often affects not only the drug addict or alcoholic but also their families, friends and work colleagues.
If you are finding that you need drugs or alcohol to ‘get through the day’ or to cope with stressful situations then hypnotherapy and counselling can help you. At the Hampshire Hypnotherapy & Counselling Centre in Fareham & Southampton, we offer confidential, caring treatment for clients with drug, alcohol and porn-related issues.
Help for spending addiction, using hypnotherapy and counselling
You may have Spending Addiction if you buy things to make yourself feel better, to compensate for something you feel is missing in your life or to make yourself feel loved and cared for.
This addiction causes you to lose your sense of rationality when it comes to shopping and spending money on things such as entertainment, gifts and material things that are not a necessity, even though it might mean going into debt that you cannot afford. The immediate gratification you get from spending far outweighs the negative consequences of the addiction such as debt, guilt, shame or hiding your purchases and/or bank and credit card statements. Perhaps you lie about how much you spend to those closest to you.
Gambling addiction
The number of people with gambling addictions and debts is rising annually. Online gambling has seen a rapid rise in popularity and people who would not have gone to betting shops and casinos are now gambling on the Internet from home.
Taking a risk in anything gives us an adrenalin rush and therefore a natural high. Gambling is taking a risk with money, and the high you get is the same as any other risk in life.
Signs that you may be addicted to gambling include a feeling of euphoria when you win and a compulsion to try and win more. Depression when you lose or an inability to stop gambling when you can no longer afford to lose. Perhaps turning to crime to fund your addiction or to pay off debts run up through gambling. Gamblers often find themselves on a path to destruction, unable to control their addiction even though they risk losing everything including family, friends, their homes and jobs.
The most important thing is to recognise that you have a problem and then seek help as soon as possible.
If you are finding that your gambling is having a negative effect on your life, then hypnotherapy and counselling can help you. At the Hampshire Hypnotherapy & Counselling Centre LTD in Fareham, Winchester & Southampton, we offer confidential, caring treatment for clients with gambling-related problems.
