Cocaine dependence can be serious, and trying to stop without the right support can feel overwhelming. If cocaine use is affecting your health, safety, relationships, work or daily life, you deserve specialist care without judgement.

This page is not a cocaine-treatment programme. Hypnotherapy does not provide detoxification, addiction treatment, medical care, rehabilitation or crisis support for cocaine dependence.

Specialist alcohol and other drug care comes first

If you are using cocaine, trying to stop or concerned about someone else’s use, contact a GP, alcohol and other drug (AOD) service, psychologist, psychiatrist or rehabilitation provider.

Cocaine is an addictive drug and can have unwanted effects. Read Healthdirect’s information about cocaine.

Call 000 immediately if there is chest pain, breathing difficulty, collapse, seizure, severe agitation, hallucinations, danger to yourself or others, overdose concern or thoughts of self-harm.

What hypnotherapy does not provide

Clive Westwood Hypnotherapy does not provide:

• Cocaine detoxification or withdrawal management

• Addiction treatment or rehabilitation

• Medical assessment or medical treatment

• Crisis intervention

• Relapse-prevention programmes

• A substitute for specialist AOD, psychological or psychiatric support

Do not use hypnosis instead of seeking professional addiction care.

Complementary support for a separate goal

If you are already receiving appropriate specialist care and are medically stable, you may ask whether complementary hypnotherapy is appropriate for a separate, non-medical goal, such as:

• General stress management

• Relaxation and sleep routines

• Confidence for positive life changes

• Motivation around everyday routines

• Creating time for calm reflection

Every situation is different. No outcome can be guaranteed, and Clive will be clear about whether hypnotherapy is suitable for the goal you wish to discuss.

Frequently asked questions

Can hypnosis help me quit cocaine?

Cocaine dependence requires specialist alcohol and other drug care. Hypnotherapy is not detoxification, addiction treatment or a substitute for professional rehabilitation and medical support.

Can I book an appointment while using cocaine?

Your immediate priority should be appropriate medical and specialist AOD care. If you are already receiving that care and wish to discuss a separate, non-medical goal, you may enquire about suitability.

What if I have chest pain, severe agitation or feel unsafe?

Call 000 immediately. Cocaine-related symptoms can require urgent medical attention.

Is this a confidential service?

Clive offers private one-to-one sessions. However, confidentiality does not make hypnotherapy a replacement for appropriate medical, addiction or crisis care.

Can I enquire about complementary support?

If you are receiving appropriate specialist care and wish to discuss a separate stress, sleep, confidence or routine goal, you can enquire about an appointment.

Discuss an appointment with Clive Westwood

Individual results vary. Hypnotherapy is complementary support only and is not a replacement for medical, addiction-treatment, psychological, psychiatric, rehabilitation, crisis or emergency care.
