Common Concerns

There are many myths about hypnosis which give a misleading impression. The reality is very different.

We don’t lose awareness of who we are, where we are and what we’re doing.

We don’t lose control.

We don’t ‘go under’ in the sense that we fall asleep or lose consciousness; most people remain fully aware throughout the session.

In fact, hypnotherapy is invariably a soothing, enjoyable experience that leaves us feeling calm and relaxed.

'When you change the way you look at things... the things you look at will change'

Wayne Dyer



What is Hypnotherapy?

There are many forms of psychological therapy but Hypnotherapy, common with EFT, is distinctive in that it addresses our subconscious mind.

Hypnosis
Hypnotherapy can generally help with any problem we're finding hard to handle on our own - thoughts and actions we'd like to banish or acquire, or emotional suffering that is too overwhelming or has gone on for too long.

Hypnosis is a natural state of heightened awareness, where we are able to open our mind to beneficial suggestions and where we can make use of our imagination to help make positive changes in our life.

Sometimes we may need to regress back to find the root of the problem, alternatively it can be more appropriate to use SFBT (solution focused brief therapy) techniques in order to change the future.

It is not just our potential that Hypnotherapy is well placed to address, but also our inner resources to effect positive change. In this regard, it is the innate healing capacity of our own mind/body that may be stimulated by Hypnotherapy.

Hypnosis is a safe way of connecting with our subconscious mind, to issue new suggestions or instructions. These suggestions are tailored precisely to suit our needs - and in this way we can bring about changes in the way we think and behave that often seem simply miraculous.

Hypnotherapy can help resolve stress, anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, unwanted habits and addictions, disrupted sleep patterns, lack of confidence and low self-esteem, fear of examinations and public speaking, allergies, skin disorders and migraine.
