How Does The Assessment Work?

Every client receives a private, confidential medical assessment with an experienced clinician. There’s no judgement and no pressure to quit overnight, just honest discussion about your history, health and goals.

Our clinicians assess your suitability for TSM, answer your questions and explain what to expect. If you’re a good fit, you’ll receive a tailored treatment plan and prescription support to get started with confidence.

What Makes The Sinclair Method Different?

Unlike willpower-only or abstinence-only approaches, TSM works with your biology to gradually extinguish the craving for alcohol. There’s no daily struggle or requirement to quit all at once, just proven science, step by step.

HOW IT WORKS

The Sinclair Method in 4 Simple Steps

STEP - 1

Book Your Assessment
Expert Consultation

Begin by booking a confidential consultation with our specialist TSM clinicians. We’ll assess your needs and provide clear medical guidance, ensuring the Sinclair Method is right for you.

STEP - 2

Start Your Medication
Targeted Support

You’ll receive a prescription for an approved opioid blocker (like naltrexone). Take one tablet at least an hour before drinking. This blocks the alcohol “reward” in your brain and begins the extinction process.

STEP - 3

Drink Mindfully
Retrain Your Brain

Continue to drink in normal circumstances, but only ever with the medication. Over time, your cravings and compulsion to drink will decrease as your brain “unlearns” the addiction, making it easier to control your intake.

STEP - 4

Regain Control
Achieve Lasting Change

As the extinction process progresses, you’ll find freedom from cravings and regain control over your drinking. Our team is here to support you throughout, helping you achieve a healthier, more balanced relationship with alcohol.

about Sinclair Method UK

Trustpilot review from Gavin, Sinclair Method UK
4.9
Rating (270+ Reviews)

Definitely recommend. Really does work.

5.0

This has really helped get my drinking under control. I have reduced my drinking by at least a third a week. No more blackouts. I know if I drink socially I limit my drinking easily. Cravings have gone, however habit is still there, which takes effort which TSM are there to help you. There is an amazing Facebook support group as well.

Thank you

5.0

I want to shout about the Sinclair Method from the rooftops. Absolutely amazing treatment, helps to be motivated but the tablets and advice do the heavy lifting. Over 3 months since I had a drink. Thank you all for your help.

Great experience

5.0

Great experience, very quick responses to my questions, very empathetic staff who understand it is a huge thing to admit you need help. Would fully recommend the Sinclair Method.

My drinking was out of control and now it isn't.

5.0

I have been following the Sinclair Method for five months. My drinking was a problem and now it isn't. The pills clearly work, but the support and encouragement from Joanna has been invaluable. It has changed my life. If your drinking is out of control, just do this, it works.

Why isn't this available on the NHS?

5.0

Whilst not an alcoholic (no problem with dry months) I had a faulty off switch when drinking. This tablet has completely sorted that for me. I can now enjoy a couple of drinks and stop and often choose not to drink. TSM and Adrian have been great, couldn't recommend more highly!
