Northern Beaches Hypnotherapy

Addiction Support through Hypnotherapy on the Northern Beaches

At Neurohealth Wellness, we understand that addiction can be difficult to overcome—but you don't have to do it alone. Our experienced hypnotherapist, Katarina McNamara, offers supportive, personalised sessions that help uncover and resolve the emotional patterns beneath addictive behaviours.

How Hypnotherapy Can Help with Addiction

Addiction isn’t just about substance use. Whether it’s sugar, alcohol, caffeine, shopping, overeating, devices, gambling, or even work and material success, addiction often acts as a coping mechanism for deeper emotional distress.

Hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective approach for addressing the underlying triggers that drive addictive behaviours. By working with the subconscious mind in a safe, supportive environment, hypnotherapy can help clients:

  • Identify the root causes of addiction
  • Interrupt unhealthy behavioural patterns
  • Rewire emotional responses
  • Regain control and clarity
  • Build healthier coping mechanisms

Understanding the Nature of Addiction

Many socially acceptable addictions—such as overworking or constant productivity—can appear to be signs of strength. However, all addictions carry consequences. They can drain emotional energy, sabotage relationships, and disconnect individuals from their authentic selves.

Addiction tends to stem from unresolved emotional experiences, often buried deep in the unconscious mind. Left unaddressed, these patterns can become so ingrained they seem invisible. That’s where hypnotherapy excels: by gently guiding you into a focused, relaxed state, it creates space to safely explore and shift those deep-rooted beliefs.

Why Choose Neurohealth for Addiction Support?

Our clinical hypnotherapist, Katarina McNamara, combines lived experience with autoimmune conditions and professional training in Clinical Hypnotherapy and NLP to support long-lasting change. Her client-centred, naturalistic approach is inspired by Milton Erickson’s techniques and designed to work with the unique emotional landscape of each individual.

Whether you're navigating emotional eating, compulsive shopping, or tech overuse, Katarina helps bring unconscious behaviours into conscious awareness—so you can move forward with confidence, peace and resilience.
