Email meAbout me
I use integrative hypnotherapy - a safe, relaxing client-centred approach which also draws upon counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), guided imagery and mindfulness meditation - to bring about subconscious change to our thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
Hypnotherapy is the means by which you can re-programme your old or unwanted behaviour patterns, or create new, more positive ones. In the hypnotic state, you accept beneficial suggestions that allow you to change your attitude so that you can do the things you want to do - or not do the things you don't want to do.
For example, you may wish to improve your self-confidence, tackle low self-esteem or your performance at work or playing sports. Or you you may wish to make the changes that will allow you to lose weight, banish the smoking habit, or conquer a fear of heights or spiders. Whatever you want to achieve, hypnotherapy can potentially help.
During hypnosis, your body relaxes and thoughts become more focused. Like other relaxation techniques, hypnosis lowers blood pressure and heart rate, and changes certain types of brain wave activity. In this relaxed state, you will feel at ease physically yet fully awake mentally and may be highly responsive to suggestion. Your conscious mind becomes less alert and your subconscious mind becomes more focused. It is in your subconscious that these beneficial changes to your programming take place.
So what exactly can hypnotherapy help you with?
Hypnotherapy is well known as being successful as an aid to stopping smoking, losing weight and dealing with fears and phobias. The list (below) of issues that can benefit from hypnotherapy is far from exhaustive, so if you are unsure whether treatment using hypnosis can help you please contact me for a free, no obligation informal chat!
