Lesley is a qualified Alcohol and Drug Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist who combines a range of complementary therapies to address addiction at its core. Drawing on energy healing, somatic techniques, and neuroscience-based practices, Lesley provides a tailored approach that nurtures your body, mind, and spirit.
With over 20 years of experience in the field of addiction and recovery, Lesley Thomas brings extensive expertise and a compassionate approach to her private practice. Having worked as an Alcohol and Drug Counsellor at Australia’s leading Addiction Treatment Hospital and Residential Rehabilitation Program, Lesley understands the complexities of addiction and the importance of addressing its root causes.
"In many cases when working to support clients, one of the essential ingredients and predictors of recovery, is to help my clients reduce their anxiety and stress levels whilst addressing the core drivers and root causes of addiction." Lesley states.
Lesley’s primary focus is helping clients release negative subconscious patterns and programs that perpetuate the cycle of addiction and relapse. Through a collaborative therapeutic process, she creates a safe, non-judgemental space where individuals can explore their motivations, discover personalised pathways to recovery, and achieve emotional freedom.
