All our counsellors are...
Experienced, Trusted, Qualified, Regulated
You are in the right place! I have a successful track record of helping hundreds of clients reduce their alcohol consumption and achieve control over their drinking. Now, I’m taking you behind the scenes in my NEW ‘tell-all’ step-by-step programme.
But first, I want you to watch this a story of my journey that will show you…
Under the grey afternoon sky, I sat there on a park bench.
I could feel my jumper stick to me as the drizzle of rain slowly soaked through each layer of my clothes. I took the last few drags of a joint after a heavy night of drinking and doing coke.
At this point, my brain was so cloudy I couldn’t even remember how many days in a row this had been going on.
I stared into space, trying to numb the brick-filled pit in my stomach.
You see, back in 2015, I was running a successful web design and marketing company with 5 employees.
However, the stress of the business, combined with the trauma of losing mum – who died from an overdose when I was 10 years-old – led me to drink and use drugs on a daily basis.
I ignored the warning signs, keeping my head buried in the sand. I continued spiralling until eventually, I lost everything: the penthouse flat, the sea view, the Mercedes, the business and the office.
But most significantly I lost the trust of and connection with my family and friends.
My life crumbling around me, I sat on that park bench looking to drink more and score more drugs.
I called everyone I could think of – people I had already manipulated either successfully or unsuccessfully – to ‘lend’ me more money to keep going.
I had one number left.
He was one of my business mentors and a good friend. I pressed ‘call’ and the phone started ringing.
But as I tried to bullshit my way through this call, he could see right through it and he cut me off with a sentence that would change my life forever:
“Luke, you’re a crackhead.”
It hit me like a bus.
And although I had never smoked crack, I realised in that moment, I was an addict heading towards death just like my mum.
In one truthful comment, he shattered all my denial…
And I had my first moment of clarity…
It was then I went searching for answers...
I searched Google. I read countless books and articles, trying to find out why I drank, why I used drugs, and how to stop.
I listened to countless podcasts and mentors on YouTube and attended multiple personal development seminars.
I then looked at rehabs. The cost was well in excess of £20,000, which was just not possible! I was already thousands of pounds in debt.
Also, I questioned how locking me away for a month was going to help me stay sober when I got out of the rehab bubble? I would still have to deal with all these problems in my life – in the real world.
Then, as we all do,
I tried AA. I went to a few meetings but didn’t understand the whole ‘higher power thing’ and that I was expected to believe that I was powerless. And sitting in a group listening to everyone’s stories – I just did not get how that was going to help me!
Nothing seemed to be working…
I realised all these tactics were trying to resolve the symptoms and not the cause.
It was then I discovered addiction therapy.
Walking into my first therapy session I believed I would die from bringing forth all the pain and torment I carried.
I had suppressed so many of my emotions that I didn’t know what I would find and that scared the shit out of me!
Previous therapies like CBT and talking therapy had not been effective for me, as they never seemed to address my drinking habits.
But this therapist was different. Armed with their own experience of addiction and work in rehabs, they were able to connect the dots and address my issues with alcohol in a way that no one else had before.
I started to become more aware of my behaviour and began to take my head out of the sand.
The sessions put me outside my comfort zone and sometimes it felt like I was running an emotional marathon.
But over time, I developed the courage needed to embrace the uncertainty and anxiety of this journey of self-discovery.
As time went on, I took action to get things under control and stopped drinking and using drugs.
But, success is never a straight line and sometimes I would have left-field moments that would trigger me with emotions and I would slip.
Sometimes it felt like I would take one step forward and two steps back.
But every time, I dusted myself off and persevered, session after session, week after week.
Each time I slipped I would learn from the trigger and gain deeper emotional awareness.
Slowly, I processed more of the guilt and shame from the past.
Gradually, I emptied all the contents of this big bag of shit I had been carrying around my whole life.
After years of going around in maddening circles, I finally felt like I knew why.
I finally felt that I had broken this never-ending cycle.
As the people around me saw me sticking to my word and taking action month after month, they began to slowly trust me again.
I, too, began to trust myself.
I started dating again and met my partner. I went into a trusting relationship, being honest, which made me proud of myself and helped me rebuild my sense of self-worth and self-esteem.
As my life got back on track I took a really hard look at my friends.
Some of them were just drinking friends but with others, I actually had a lot in common with, outside of drinking.
I managed to continue socialising and be confident in social situations while not feeling like the odd one out.
With the tools in place to manage work without letting the stress overwhelm me, I finally had things under control.
As I made it past my first few months I knew I had moved from having cravings to having a choice.
If you’re anything like me, you’re probably dealing with similar struggles, just like my clients.
So I want to share with you some stories of individuals who were trapped in the cycle of drinking, searching for a way out.
Below, I’ve listed three of my clients and where they were when they first came to see me. Each of them had a unique situation and put in a lot of effort to overcome their challenges.
They are inspiring examples of resilience and determination, and I hope their stories will resonate with you and give you hope for your own journey towards getting your drinking under control.
He felt like he was being pulled in a million different directions – work, caring for the kids, managing finances, helping with his older parents, maintaining a relationship with his partner, and trying to see friends.
Every few weeks, the weight of his responsibilities became too much for him to bear and he needed a way to escape it all. So, he would disappear for a drink.
It was his way of taking a break from the constant demands placed on him and giving himself a moment of respite.
But, he would just drink until he blacked out, not really finding the relief he was seeking.
The guilt and shame he felt after each binge only added to his feelings of overwhelm and made him want to escape even more.
He knew he needed to find a healthier way to cope, but he just couldn’t seem to break the cycle on his own.
He had always relied on alcohol to help him cope but as the demands on him continued to mount, he found himself drinking more and more on the weekends.
He was struggling to keep up with everything and felt overwhelmed all the time.
By the end of the week, he just wanted to let go and have a good time with his friends, but he often took it too far and ended up regretting it the next day.
He would wake up feeling guilty, ashamed, and embarrassed about his behaviour and the way he had let himself and his loved ones down.
His relationship with his partner was strained because of the lack of trust and constant fighting about his drinking.
He knew he was spiralling out of control and if he didn’t make a change, things were not going to end well.
He was desperately searching for a way to break the cycle and find a healthier way to cope with the stress in his life.
She had been stuck in the cycle of excessive drinking for what felt like an eternity.
The monotony of going through the motions had taken a heavy toll on her, and after the pandemic hit, she found herself drinking every single day.
She couldn’t believe how she had gotten to this point. It never used to be this bad. She used to only drink a few times a week, but now it was a bottle (or two) of wine every night.
She was consumed by feelings of shame and self-hatred. She knew she needed to make a change, but she couldn’t seem to break the cycle.
It was like she was trapped in this endless cycle of drinking and feeling guilty, only to turn to alcohol again as a way to cope.
She felt lost and alone, not knowing how to escape the darkness that had taken over her life.
We’re all in the same boat, trying to find our way out of the cycle of drinking. Tom, Rich and Katie had tried all the usual tactics before coming to see me – AA, traditional counselling, reading quit lit – but none of them seemed to address the root cause of their struggles.
We try all these tactics and never seem to get to the real ‘why’ behind our drinking. We try to fix it and do all these things, but they don’t work because they lack depth and integration.
After speaking with countless clients who have seen previous therapists, I know that the reason they come to me is to look back over their lives through the lens of their drinking.
Most counsellors, despite being compassionate and listening to their clients, don’t fully understand how to connect the dots because they haven’t experienced it themselves.
After my mother’s death, I became obsessed with finding a way out of the cycle of drinking. I had seen the amazing impact that therapy had on my own life and the value it provided, so I became determined to help others find the same.
Over the past six years, I have tried every possible tactic and approach in my quest to help myself and others.
I believe that no one has to suffer and die from drinking as my mother did, and I am committed to doing everything I can to help others, like you, break free from the chains of alcohol.
I want to get super candid with you. I hid my drinking for years because of the mountain of shame I was under. As a result of this hard fact we all face, getting clients to publicly talk about the amazing work we do together is a bit of a challenge.
Sober or not, if you are the CEO of a big company you don’t want everyone to know what skeletons you have in the closet and I completely respect my client’s privacy.
Despite that – a few clients have been kind enough to use the verified service Trustpilot and have given me a 5-star review.
All of them are normal people like you, with a job, and families, they are very high functioning and all of them had a problem with alcohol, too.
Here are some of my favourites…
REVIEWS
What our SOBER clients have to say
4.7 stars out of 40+ reviews
Now, these results are not typical and most people never get any results because they don’t do the work. Most people don’t take any action. So I can’t guarantee that you’re going to do anything or get any results. I am not telling you that you can definitely get your drinking under control or that your partner will trust you again.
But I can tell you that if you were one of those people who just sit there writing letters to your own pity party you wouldn’t be reading this!
I can also tell you that I have included everything you need to know in this programme to get the exact same results as my clients above.

As your time is precious, I cut out all the fluff and made each video 5 – 10 minutes long.

Are you ready to take control of your drinking and transform your life? Our program is here to help you succeed, and we’ve included some amazing bonuses to support you on your journey.
Plus…
There are two guarantees and they are both valid at the same time. The first one is a 7-Day money-back guarantee to try the programme out and see if it is a good fit.
On top of that, you also get a 60-Day money-back guarantee – that one covers you if you saw no value after putting in the work and completing the programme.
BOTTOM LINE: No matter what you have tried in the past, this is the first and last addiction programme you will ever need or you get your money back.
I like to work with clients who are a good fit, so I am not asking you to say yes or no today.
It is my ethical duty as a counsellor to respect your autonomy, so I am giving you an opportunity to make a fully informed decision.
But the only way to make that decision is from the inside and not the outside. You wouldn’t buy a house without looking at the inside first, would you?
After you join the programme – whether it’s 7 minutes or 7 days from now – if you are not happy, then I am not happy!
You can have a look at the entire programme, have your first counselling session (if you purchased the Premium or Executive Package) and see if we are a good fit.
If you are not satisfied for any reason within the first 7 days, send us an email at support@insideaddiction.co.uk and we will issue you a refund. No questions asked!
This guarantee covers you if you have been through the whole 8 weeks of the programme, watched all the videos and completed all the worksheets.
You have done it all and yet, you feel like you haven’t got any value out of it and your life has not changed in any way.
I only want to keep your money if you are 100% happy and I have truly provided value.
Sounds fair enough?
All you need to do, is to send me your completed worksheets to luke@insideaddiction.co.uk, double check you showed up to all of your counselling sessions; say “REFUND” in the subject and I will refund you the whole price of the programme back. (If you chose to pay in monthly payments, only the received payments will be refunded and any upcoming scheduled payments will be cancelled).
P.S. I make this kind of guarantee because I am confident that what I have is the real deal. I am confident that when you sign up below, you are going to learn exactly what you need to get your drinking under control.
So, there you have it, two no-risk options: First, you can leave this page without buying. Or second, you can make the leap, buy the programme and take action towards changing your life while covered by the two guarantees mentioned above.
Both actions are 0 risk to you – but only joining the programme has the potential to restore your life and get your drinking under control.
Get instant access to transformative therapeutic tools carefully crafted after years of research and testing so you can go in your own time at your own pace through our step-by-step process.
Our counselling programme is covered by my two Counsellor’s Ethical Guarantee's and they are both valid at the same time. The first one is a 7-Day money-back guarantee to try the programme out and see if it is a good fit.On top of that, you also get a 60-Day money-back guarantee – that one covers you if you saw no value after putting in the work and completing the programme.
Yes, you can talk to someone before you sign up. You can complete an contact form and someone will reach out to you to discuss your needs and answer any questions you may have about addiction counselling. This will give you the opportunity to ask any questions you may have and get a better understanding of what to expect from the process. It is important to feel comfortable and confident in your decision to seek help, and speaking with one of our team beforehand can help you feel more prepared and reassured.
Yes, this program can address addiction to drugs as well as alcohol because most of the tools are universal. Although it focuses through the lens of drink it is designed to help individuals struggling with all types of addictions, including those related to cocaine, sex, weed, ketamine, and more. Whether you are struggling with addiction to a specific substance or a behavioural addiction, this program can provide value and support as you work towards recovery. If you have a specific addiction that you would like to address in counselling, it is important to discuss this with your counsellor so that they can tailor the treatment plan to your needs.
If you are concerned about the cost, please be aware that it is available starting at as low as £1.60. I have made every effort to make the program as cost-effective as possible in order to make treatment accessible to as many individuals as possible. It is important to seek help for your addiction and not let financial concerns stand in the way of your recovery.
It is also important to consider the “phantom costs” of not seeking help for your addiction. The cost of not addressing your addiction can have a significant impact on your health, relationships, and work performance. It is important to weigh the potential benefits of treatment against the costs of not seeking help. If you are unable to afford the addiction counselling program, there may be other options available to you, such as community resources or support groups. It is important to reach out for help and explore all available options.
If you are contacting us on behalf of someone else, it is important to keep in mind that addiction counselling is a highly personal and confidential process. The individual seeking help will need to be actively involved in the counselling process and must give their consent for any information to be shared. If you would like to purchase the program as a gift for a friend or family member, you can certainly do so. However, it is important to keep in mind that the individual will still need to complete an application form and possibly speak with a counsellor in order to participate in the program. It is ultimately up to the individual to decide if they want to seek help and participate in the programme. It is important to approach the topic with sensitivity and respect for their autonomy and to not pressure them into seeking help if they are not ready. It is also important to respect their privacy and confidentiality.
You have the option to either moderate your drinking or stop altogether. This is not an abstinence-only program and it is up to you to decide what approach is best for you. The goal of the program is to help you make an informed decision about your drinking and to provide you with the tools and support you need to achieve your goals. As you go through the programme you will work to understand the role that alcohol plays in your life and help you develop strategies to reduce your consumption or quit altogether if that is your goal.
Yes, you can participate even if you do not have a partner. The program is designed to help individuals overcome addiction and improve their overall well-being, regardless of their relationship status. The program can teach you how to build trust, defuse arguments, and communicate effectively with loved ones, which can be beneficial in any relationship. Even if you do not currently have a partner, the skills you learn in the program can help you build healthy relationships in the future.
The program typically requires about 30 minutes per week to watch the videos. If you choose to participate in additional counselling sessions with one of our trained counsellors, this will require an additional hour per week. The exact amount of time you will need to commit to the program will depend on your individual needs and goals. Your counsellor will work with you to develop a plan that is tailored to your needs and that fits into your schedule. It is important to keep in mind that the benefits of treatment will depend on your commitment to the process and your willingness to engage in the program. While it may require some time and effort, the investment in your recovery can have a lasting and positive impact on your life.
Yes, you can participate in both therapy and the Alcohol Control program. In fact, this would be my personal recommendation. If you are already participating in therapy, you can discuss with your therapist how the Alchohol Control program may fit into your treatment plan. They may be able to provide guidance on how to integrate the two approaches in a way that is most beneficial for you. Alternatively, you can choose one of our counsellors who are trained and experienced in both areas. Alternatively, if you prefer to work with a separate therapist, in the programme I provide guidance on how to find a qualified therapist in your area. It is important to find a therapist who is a good fit for you and who has experience working with individuals struggling with addiction.
No, this program is not face-to-face. It is an online video programme you can watch from home. If you choose it also consists of online video sessions with your counsellor. You will be able to connect with your counsellor remotely through a video conferencing platform, such as Skype or Zoom. This allows you to participate in counselling from the comfort of your own home or any location with an internet connection.
Our program includes an accountability matrix to help you stay motivated and committed to the process. This matrix is designed to help you stay on track and make progress towards your goals.
Yes, this programme will help you address the underlying causes of your drinking. Understanding the underlying causes of your addiction is an important step in the recovery process and can help you develop strategies to prevent relapse and achieve lasting recovery. Our addiction counselling program includes a module specifically focused on exploring the “why” behind your addiction. This module is designed to help you understand the underlying causes of your addiction and identify any underlying issues, such as stress, anxiety, or depression, that may be contributing to your addiction. In addition to the module, you can also discuss the underlying causes of your addiction in individual counselling sessions with your counsellor. They can provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore these issues in greater depth and develop strategies to address them.
Yes, you can continue attending addiction counselling even after you have achieved recovery. In fact, many individuals find that ongoing support is beneficial in maintaining their recovery and preventing slips. Once you have stopped drinking or using drugs, you may want to focus on other areas of your life, such as your relationship with your partner, work, or social life. You can continue working with one of our counsellors on an open-ended basis for as long as you feel it is beneficial. Your counsellor will be there to support you and help you navigate any challenges or struggles you may encounter along the way. Overall, the decision to continue counselling after achieving recovery is a personal one and will depend on your individual needs and goals. It can be helpful to discuss this with your counsellor to determine if ongoing support is right for you.
In the program, you can expect to gain a deeper understanding of your drinking and its underlying causes. Typically, as clients go through the programme, they start to understand their drinking and are able to make an informed choice about how they would like to proceed. Clients often report a marked sense of well-being, increased ease, and contentment, with greater effectiveness in all aspects of their life. They are often surprised and, on occasion, amazed at the changes they have made to their lives over such a short period of time. It is important to note that this program is not a magic pill and just watching the videos is not enough. You need to put in the work and take action to get the results you are looking for. Lisa Inside Addiction has an excellent rating on Trustpilot from clients, but it is important to remember that recovery is a process and requires effort and commitment to achieve lasting results.
Appointments for the addiction counselling program are typically available on Monday to Friday 7 AM to 8 PM and Saturday from 9 AM to 12 AM. You can check the availability of appointments in the counsellor’s diary and book a date and time that works for you. It is important to keep in mind that availability may vary depending on the counsellor’s schedule and the demand for appointments. Rember you have access on demand to the video programme so you can watch it whenever you want in between the counselling sessions.
Respecting your confidentiality is of utmost importance and is essential in building trust between you and your counsellor. Your counsellor is bound by the Code of Ethics of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which requires them to maintain confidentiality and protect your privacy. If you have any cause for concern about the confidentiality of your counselling sessions, you can contact the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy directly. They are an independent professional body that is responsible for setting and maintaining standards for the practice of counselling and psychotherapy in the UK. It is important to remember that confidentiality is a key principle of the counselling process and is essential for creating a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Your counsellor is committed to upholding this principle and to protecting your privacy.
It is understandable to feel sceptical or uncertain about whether the program will work for you. However, it is important to keep in mind that being unsure or sceptical has nothing to do with the results you will get. The information provided in the program is based on science and has been shown to be effective for hundreds of other people. While we cannot guarantee that it will work for you, we can promise that it is worth taking a chance and trying it out to see if it can help you achieve lasting recovery. If you are still concerned about whether the program will work for you, it is worth noting that there is a money-back guarantee in place. This means that if you are not satisfied with the program, you can request a refund. Overall, it is important to have faith and begin the process, even if you are unsure or sceptical. It is only through taking the chance and trying something new that you can determine if it is right for you.
You will have lifetime access to the video content. This means that you can access the program materials and resources at any time, even after you have completed the program. Having lifetime access to the content can be beneficial in supporting your ongoing recovery and helping you maintain the skills and strategies you have learned. You can revisit the material at any time to refresh your knowledge or to seek additional support as needed.
It is understandable to have concerns about privacy, especially when it comes to participating in an online program. It is important to note that the program is not on Facebook or any other social media platform. The program is accessed through a secure online platform that is designed to protect your privacy and confidentiality. Your personal information and counselling sessions will not be shared on social media or with any third parties. If you have any additional concerns about privacy, you can discuss them with our team. We are committed to respecting your privacy and will be happy to address any questions or concerns you may have.
Some people choose to remain stuck, while others choose to build a strong foundation to weather the storms of life and make positive changes. If you’ve made it this far, you already have the power to make a change.
I’ve spoken with countless clients who have shared similar stories of how they let their drinking spiral out of control before finally seeking help. It’s a worrying pattern that I see all too often – people wait until their situations are dire before taking action to address their drinking.
And that’s why I want to emphasize the critical juncture you’re at right now. If you continue down the self-destructive path you’ve been on, it will only lead to one outcome: death.
And along the way, you’ll lose everything that matters to you – the trust of loved ones, your job or business, your relationships, and potentially even your life.
I know this from firsthand experience, as I watched my mother lose everything before she lost her life to addiction. And I’ve seen countless other clients suffer the tragic fates, gradually losing everything they value as their drinking consumes them.

Please note that this program is not intended for individuals who are physically addicted to alcohol. If you are experiencing physical dependence on alcohol or have a strong physical addiction to alcohol, it is important to seek medical assistance, including detoxification, before attempting to stop drinking. If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, please contact the Samaritans at 116-123 for support. In case of an emergency, please call 999.
