Addictions & Compulsive Behaviours
Do you feel stuck in a habit you can’t explain, such as cravings, compulsive behaviours, or repeating cycles that don’t respond to willpower? Regression hypnotherapy can help you understand what the pattern is protecting, and gently shift it at the root.

Lasting change
We integrate new choices so progress continues between sessions.
Why compulsive patterns are so hard to “just stop”
Compulsive behaviours and addictions often begin as a way to cope, to calm the nervous system, numb difficult feelings or create a sense of control when life feels uncertain.
Even when the behaviour is no longer helpful, the subconscious can keep repeating it because it once felt protective.
Regression hypnotherapy helps you explore where the pattern began and what it has been trying to do for you. From that place, change becomes softer. It is not a fight, but a shift in what your mind and body believe they need.

How regression hypnotherapy can help with addictions and compulsions
Addictions and compulsive behaviours are rarely about “lack of discipline”. They are often the nervous system reaching for relief from stress, emotional pain, loneliness, overwhelm, or a belief that something is not safe without the habit.
In regression hypnotherapy, we work gently with the subconscious to understand what is happening underneath the behaviour. This may include:
- the first time the pattern formed
- the emotion the habit is trying to avoid or manage
- the belief that keeps the cycle going (for example: “I can’t cope without this”)
- the inner conflict between the part of you that wants change and the part that feels protected by the behaviour
Sessions are not about shame or forcing yourself to relive difficult experiences. They are about creating safety, understanding, and a new response. Many clients notice that as the original trigger softens, cravings reduce, self-control strengthens, and healthier choices become easier to access.
If you are unsure whether regression is the right approach for you, we can start with a free consultation and map the safest, most supportive first step.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Hypnotherapy can support change by working with subconscious triggers, emotional patterns, and the beliefs that drive cravings or compulsive behaviours. Regression work focuses on understanding where the pattern began, so your mind and body can respond differently.
I do not promise quick fixes because everyone’s pattern is different. Some clients feel an immediate shift, while others benefit from a few sessions, especially when the behaviour is linked to stress or deeper emotional history.
You are not alone and you will not be judged. These behaviours often form as coping strategies. We work gently, at your pace, and you can share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with.
