Shopping addiction grows.
Now you can cut free, in just 1-3 private, confidential sessions, online.
I’m Alan Carr, The Shopping Addiction Guy. Not the stop-smoking Allen Carr (RIP), and not Alan Carr the comedian.
Confession time – you’ve never heard of me, because for 20 years I was the guy behind the curtain, the marketing consultant helping corporations engineer buying urges you couldn’t resist.
I walked away from marketing because someone needed to say it out loud:
Shopping addiction is real, it’s engineered, and it’s exploiting people.
The industry calls it “engagement.” Therapists just treat symptoms. Everyone dismisses it as weakness, selfish, greedy.
Now, from the island of BORNEO – with a viewpoint as far from Western consumerism as I can get – I help people escape the tightening loops they’re trapped in.
One breakthrough session. One clean cut.
You and me, on Zoom, in private, with my unique form of conscious hypnosis (you remain wide awake).
If you’re within the zone I can work with, it works fast – and it lasts – because I use the same psychological principles that created your cravings in the first place. (See my method)
This is an easy but powerful, decisive, one-time intervention (1-3 sessions max), with a fixed, flat fee.
But it’s not just about the money, is it? It’s the feeling that you’re missing out. The time wasted. The growing stress, then guilt, that starts affecting every aspect of your life. I know.
Beyond a tipping point the pattern can accelerate hard, but it stays invisible – either because you’re hiding it, or because nobody takes you seriously. Not until the damage is undeniable.
Catch it early enough and I can still help you cut free – in private, online.
Why you, why this, and why now…
Is this you?
Everyone sees the same ads, the same products. So why are they now a problem for you? Because something – maybe tiny and forgotten, maybe big and obvious – created a breach in your defenses, giving the constant barrage of marketing a way in. Once in, the loops automate and grow. Your rational mind knows it’s a problem but your subconscious keeps taking over whenever you’re tired or stressed. If this sounds like you, take the Shopping Addiction Quiz
Why this works
You’re not broken, but you are trapped. And subconscious traps don’t respond to budgets or willpower, only when your conscious and subconscious minds get back in sync. I know how this works, because I spent 20 years building marketing campaigns around such loops. Now you can use the same psychological principles that created your cravings to cut free, privately, inside your own mind. It’s a mixed method – part hypnosis (not the stage show stuff), part deep conversation, reaching subconscious loops conventional therapy can’t touch. You stay awake as I guide your attention, then the sync happens naturally. See My Method
What if you wait?
There was a time you didn’t have this. Then you did. Then it got worse. Then willpower stopped working. The pattern is clear: shopping addiction moves through stages, and it accelerates. What worked at Stage 1 fails at Stage 2. Stage 2 tactics collapse at Stage 3. What I call Stage 3 is where I can help best – the loops are automated but not yet your permanent baseline. Wait until Stage 4 and it’s woven too deep for this kind of intervention. Harsh question: which part of your life breaks first, if you don’t change?
