My Solution Wellbeing Counselling Norwich offers therapy for Changing Negative Habits. We offer face to face appointments in Norwich or online for individuals.
Habits are hard to change because they are habits. There are reasons why they are hard to break.

My Solution Wellbeing offer therapy for Habits such as:
- Alcohol: The most prevalent legal substance abuse issue, with an estimated 1.6 million adults dependent in England alone.
- Nicotine / Tobacco: Includes cigarettes and modern e-cigarettes (vaping), driving widespread chemical dependency.
- Opiates (e.g., Heroin): Accounts for the largest single group of adults in formal structured treatment (over 65,000 for opiates alone).
- Crack Cocaine and Opiates combined: A major poly drug dependency category affecting tens of thousands of individuals in recovery services.
- Cannabis: The most widely used illegal drug in the UK, leading to regular dependence for over 68,000 people in treatment.
- Powder Cocaine: A rapidly growing stimulant addiction with tens of thousands seeking treatment annually.
- Crack Cocaine (standalone): Responsible for thousands of distinct emergency and recovery service interventions.
- Gambling: A major behavioural addiction estimated to impact hundreds of thousands of people across the UK.
- Prescription Drugs (e.g., painkillers, benzodiazepines): Misuse of prescription opioids and sedatives is a rising hidden dependency.
- Ketamine: Use and dependency have surged significantly across England and Wales over the past decade, particularly among young adults.
- Ecstasy (MDMA): Frequently used in nightlife settings, leading to psychological and physical dependence for some users.
- Amphetamines / Speed: Stimulant misuse that remains a persistent issue within structured substance services.
- Internet and Social Media: A recognised behavioural addiction tied to compulsive screen use and digital connectivity.
- Shopping / Spending: Compulsive buying disorder driven by dopamine loops linked to online retail access.
- Caffeine: Highly normalised in daily life, though severe dependency can disrupt sleep and trigger anxiety cycles
Therapies for Habits
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Focuses on identifying the thoughts, feelings, and triggers that drive a habit loop. It teaches you to reframe unhelpful thinking and replace negative routines with positive actions.
- Habit Reversal Training (HRT): Works best for repetitive, compulsive behaviours like nail-biting, skin-picking, or tics. It uses awareness training and competing response training to interrupt the physical urge before the habit occurs.
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Combines with CBT to help you accept uncomfortable urges without acting on them, aligning your daily actions with your core personal values.
