I’m Rebecca Thomson — Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist, educator, speaker, and creator of The Homecoming Reset™
I’m known as The Wine O’Clock Woman because I specialise in helping smart, professional women change their relationship with alcohol.
I talk a lot about that wine o’clock cycle.
The one where you say, ” I’m not drinking tonight”, and then there’s a glass in your hand by 7 pm.
Women don’t come to me because they’re out of control. Or they’ve hit the infamous rock bottom.
They come because they’ve had enough of alcohol running their lives.
My approach blends science and psychology with grounded, shame-free insight.
I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (BPS-accredited), with a background in social work and teaching.
But this isn’t just my profession.
It’s personal.
Because I’ve lived the exact pattern I now help women break, and I know how quietly devastating it can be.

CBH gave me tools that worked
At first, I worked with people facing all kinds of challenges.
But over time, I noticed a pattern: women coming to me exhausted, stretched too thin, and quietly relying on alcohol to get through.
That’s when it clicked: this was the work I was meant to do.
The tools I’d trained in helped me break that cycle myself.
They gave me space to breathe.
To feel steadier.
To handle life in ways that actually worked — without turning on myself.
I got the right support, and that’s what helped me turn things around.
Now, I work with women facing the same struggles.
The best part of what I do?
Those quiet moments when something shifts —
and a woman realises she doesn’t have to live like this anymore.
That she can feel clear again.
That she can trust herself.
Our stories may be different.
But if any of this feels familiar, know this:
You don’t have to keep doing this on your own.
I’ve been there too.
