Vanessa East
Counsellor/Therapist
I work to help you to understand triggers for your addictions and the events underneath them. I support you to learn to develop compassion for yourself, as well as empower you in taking responsibility as appropriate, and working through shame guilt and any other challenging emotions that may arise.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, RPC, MPCC
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.

Jerry Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
I’m an addict first and foremost.
I’ve battled with cocaine addiction since 2003.
My level of understanding, around addiction and addictive traits, combined with academic qualifications in addiction, substance use and dependency, not to mention learned experience and knowledge, enables me to help clients extremely quickly and effectively.
I’ve also got extensive experience in gambling, sex, porn and retail addiction.

Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
During my time in the NHS, I spent several years working with people struggling with issues around addictions. I specialise in developing understanding of the deeper purpose of the addiction; what it's origins are and what it's attempting to heal. This understanding can lead to a greater sense of freedom and opportunity.
