A Better Hope for Alcohol & Drug Problems


People with alcohol and drug problems have been done a disservice by being labeled "diseased." Although that viewpoint has helped caregivers become more compassionate, it has also given many people the mistaken belief that they cannot be helped.

Dr. Larry Volz and his associates at The American Hypnosis Clinic believe that people who over-use alcohol and other drugs do so for reasons such as having a reward system or for escape and comfort from stress. Everyone is different - but in most cases these are normal and healthy needs? to relax, to get away from life and to treat your self. It's just the way that these needs were answered that has been their problem.

Through individualized sessions that involve up to four different types of hypnosis, behavior modification and addiction education The American Hypnosis Clinic helps individuals get their addictive behaviors under control permanently by fulfilling those needs in healthy ways. Whether the compulsive behavior in question is smoking, comfort eating, a phobia or drug or alcohol addiction - they do it more quickly, more easily and with much better results than traditional programs.

In fact, all of their programs are guaranteed for life.
