Frequently asked questions

Can hypnotherapy help with addiction?

It may support recovery by helping with cravings, triggers, and motivation, as a complement to professional treatment. It is not a cure or a standalone treatment for addiction.

Does it replace rehab or medical treatment?

No. Addiction often needs medical and clinical care, and some withdrawal can be dangerous. Use hypnotherapy alongside professional treatment, not instead of it.

How many sessions will I need?

It varies with the person and the behavior, and is best planned together with your treatment team.

Where can I get urgent help?

If it's an emergency or you suspect an overdose, call your local emergency number right away (911 in the US and Canada, 999 in the UK and Ireland, 000 in Australia, 111 in New Zealand). For free, confidential addiction support: in the US, the SAMHSA National Helpline on 1-800-662-4357 (24/7); in the UK, FRANK on 0300 123 6600; in Ireland, the HSE Drugs and Alcohol Helpline on 1800 459 459; in Australia, the National Alcohol and Other Drug Hotline on 1800 250 015; in New Zealand, the Alcohol Drug Helpline on 0800 787 797. In Canada, find your provincial line through the Government of Canada's 'Get help with substance use' page, or call or text 988 for crisis support. Anywhere else, find a local service at findahelpline.com. Hypnotherapy is a supportive add-on, not emergency care.
