DRY JANUARY 2025 - BOOK YOUR SLOT - LIMITED SPACES
My sobriety journey started with Dry January and yours can too. If you are looking to embark on Dry January then I have put together this package specifically for you. It is designed to support you through the whole month, not only to get you through the social events and cravings but to help you understand your relationship with alcohol on a deeper level.
​
Dry January is often treated as a quick reset. You stop drinking for a few weeks, you feel physically better and then you quietly slip back into old patterns. This package is for you if you want something different. You want to make sense of why you drink the way you do, you want practical tools that actually work in real life and you want someone in your corner who understands the psychology of change.
​
As a psychology based practitioner with a background in CBT and Hypnotherapy, I tailor the plan of action to you and to what you need. We look at your drinking patterns, your triggers and the situations that make things harder, and we work through them in a way that fits your life. If you need support with sleep, anxiety, low mood, relationships, social situations or confidence, we address those at the same time. These things often show up when you remove alcohol and it is completely normal. Rather than letting them derail your month, we work through them together so you feel steady and supported throughout Dry January.​
​​​
WHO THIS IS FOR​
​
This package is for you if:
​
-
You are planning to do Dry January and want professional, one to one support
-
You are a grey area drinker, not rock bottom, but fed up with how much headspace alcohol takes up
-
You are worried about how you will cope with cravings, social situations or stress without a drink
-
You have tried to “cut back” before and always find yourself slipping
-
You want to use this month as a genuine turning point, whether you stay alcohol free after January or not
​
You don't have to label yourself or decide right now what your relationship with alcohol will look like in six months. Our work together is about giving you clarity, tools and confidence so you can make that decision from a calm and informed place rather than from guilt or fear.​
​HOW I WORK​
​
As a psychology based practitioner with a background in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy and years of clinic experience supporting people with anxiety, low mood, confidence and emotional regulation, I combine tools from both CBT and hypnotherapy to create a plan that fits you. There is no template here. We look at your drinking patterns, your triggers, your routines and the beliefs you hold about alcohol, and together we build an approach that works for your life.
​
If issues with sleep, anxiety, low mood, relationships, social situations or confidence show up, we work on those too. It is very common for these things to become more noticeable when alcohol is removed. They are not signs that you are slipping. They are part of your nervous system recalibrating, and there are practical, evidence based ways to support that process.
Throughout the package I use my background and clinical experience to give you tools that work in real situations, not just in theory:
​
-
CBT based techniques to challenge thoughts such as “I can't relax without a drink” or “people will think I am boring”
-
Hypnotherapy and guided relaxation to support cravings, sleep and emotional regulation
-
Behavioural strategies for the difficult moments when willpower is not enough
-
Psychoeducation to help you understand what is happening in your brain and body as you remove alcohol
​​​​​
​​​​​​​​WHAT'S INCLUDED​
​
I will tailor the support to match your needs but the support may look like this:​
​
-
A thorough initial assessment where we look at your current drinking, your goals for Dry January and the specific challenges you anticipate
-
A series of one to one sessions across January focused on support, skills and accountability (you can space them out for longer and make them fortnightly if that suits you better taking you into February too)
-
Access to the Sober Resilience course to support your month with 11 hypnosis and relaxation downloads to support you
-
Access to the Private Sober Rebel Facebook Group for accountability, friendship and support
-
Tools to build good habits and daily rituals to support your mental health
-
Tailored CBT tools and strategies you can use between sessions
-
WhatsApp check ins between sessions for support and accountability​
​
The focus is always on you as a whole person, not just “someone doing Dry January”.
​
WHAT WE WILL WORK ON​
​
Across the month we can work on:
​​
-
Understanding your triggers
Identifying the situations, emotions and thoughts that pull you towards a drink, and creating alternative responses that feel realistic. -
Managing cravings and urges
Practical, evidence based tools to ride out cravings, reduce their intensity and change the way you relate to them. -
Socialising without alcohol
Planning what you will say, how you will handle questions and how to navigate events without feeling deprived or on edge. -
Supporting your nervous system
Tools for sleep, anxiety, overthinking and low mood, which often become more noticeable once alcohol is removed. -
Redefining what you want from alcohol
Using this month to get honest about what alcohol is giving you and what it is taking away, so your decisions afterwards are grounded in reality, not habit.
​
THE INVESTMENT
The Dry January package is £350.
​
By the end of January you can expect to:
​
-
Have completed a full month alcohol free with structured, professional support
-
Understand your personal relationship with alcohol much more clearly
-
Have a set of CBT tools and hypnotherapy resources you can continue to use well beyond January
-
Feel more confident about how you handle stress, social situations and difficult emotions without automatically reaching for a drink
-
Be in a stronger position to decide what you want your relationship with alcohol to look like going forward
​
The aim is not perfection. The aim is to support you through a month that can be challenging and turn it into something genuinely useful, something that gives you back a sense of choice and agency.
​
If you would like the support spaced out for longer, if your goal is longer term sobriety then you can also space the four sessions out to be fortnightly... taking you into February. I'm flexible and will work with whatever you need.
​
NEXT STEPS
​
If you would like to book the Dry January package or ask if it is right for you, you can:
​
-
Get in touch using my contact form
-
Or book a short initial call to talk it through
​
If you are feeling a pull towards using Dry January as a proper reset rather than another uncomfortable white-knuckle month, this package is designed to help you do exactly that.
​​
You then have the option to have one off touch in sessions or to carry on as you wish afterwards. It's totally up to you. You also have the option to start it pre January if you're keen to get started, I can give you access to the online course early and can even get you booked in for your first session before the end of the year if you prefer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
