The Standard’s first-person account explains how sessions with Ailsa Frank helped change a long-standing pattern of binge drinking.
In this first-person piece for The Standard, a writer who wanted to drink in moderation rather than give up completely describes how hypnotherapy with Ailsa Frank changed her binge drinking.
Ailsa explains that hypnotherapy works on the subconscious, where habits are stored, which is why willpower-only challenges like Dry January or Sober October often fail to last. Over six weeks the writer had one-to-one phone sessions with Ailsa and listened to a short relaxation recording on the Feel Amazing app each night. She says that three years on she has not binged since.
