OUR ALDERLEY EDGE SERVICE

Private outpatient treatment for alcohol and drug use

 

Cheshire Sobriety Clinic offers private, outpatient treatment programmes for problematic alcohol and drug use, including binge drinking, combining talking therapy with RTT® hypnotherapy. Our Alderley Edge consulting rooms are convenient for Wilmslow, Knutsford, Macclesfield, Prestbury, Cheadle Hulme and Congleton, and we also see clients in Altrincham and online.

 

Sessions are led by John Wilkinson, who has 27 years’ experience in drug, alcohol and mental health services, and Dr Shyra Raj, a medical doctor and certified RTT® practitioner. We offer four levels of treatment, so you can choose the support that fits where you are.

WHAT TO EXPECT

How treatment works

 

• A complimentary, no-pressure 30-minute consultation with John Wilkinson, to talk through your situation and the options that may suit you.

• Four levels of treatment. Programmes 2, 3 and 4 combine individual therapy sessions with John and two 2-hour Rapid Transformational Therapy® (RTT®) sessions with Dr Shyra Raj, which aim to address subconscious emotional triggers and include two personalised hypnosis recordings to listen to each day for 21 days. Programme 1 includes one hypnosis recording.

• A holistic, biopsychosocial approach that considers the whole person, including mind, body, emotions and lifestyle, and aims to address underlying causes rather than only the behaviour.

• Aftercare is included in the Full Treatment Programme and the Private Client Programme, and ad hoc sessions can be booked if you would like further support after your programme ends.

 

 

OUR APPROACH

Treatment philosophy and team

 

We are a small team who aim to offer a professional, ethical, safe and confidential service, tailored to you.

 

Because treatment is outpatient, you can carry on with work and family life and put what you learn into practice straight away, rather than stepping away from everyday life.

 

RTT® draws on elements of hypnotherapy, CBT, NLP and psychotherapy, and aims to address the subconscious emotional drivers behind problematic drinking and drug use.

 

If you need a medically supervised detox, we will advise you on suitable external services rather than proceed unsafely.

IN SUMMARY

Is our service right for you?

 

Cheshire Sobriety Clinic offers a personalised, ethical outpatient service that combines RTT® with talking therapy, across four programmes of increasing intensity. It may suit you if you are looking for confidential, flexible and compassionate support without a stay in residential rehab.

 

Cheshire Sobriety Clinic is not a crisis service and does not provide medical detox. If you may be physically dependent on alcohol or drugs, please speak to your GP or NHS 111 before making changes. In an emergency, call 999.
