About me
*** Please Note I am currently seeing all clients via a secure GDPR compliant online platform - I offer a FREE initial consultation ***
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy uses practical, modern, and well researched evidence-based protocols and strategies to help you make significant, positive changes in your life in a relatively short period of time.
By combining neuroscience research with solution focused psychotherapy techniques and exercises, each session you attend enables your positive solutions to become more apparent and achievable.
This approach provides you, the client, with reassurance that your positive outcomes can be achieved, and through a close client/therapist partnership, a programme of therapy can be commenced. One session of hypnosis will not cure a thirty year problem; solution focused hypnotherapy is a commitment to a programme of therapy over a period of time, with clear evidence to show your outcomes are being achieved.
By using a scientific, evidence-based approach, Solution focused hypnotherapy offers a quicker time-frame to achieve your results.

Training, qualifications & experience
My name is John and I am a solution focused clinical hypnotherapist and psychotherapist and I am the proprietor of J Lowson Hypnotherapy in Hipperholme and the Halifax Hypnotherapy Clinic.
As a well respected local businessman I found myself studying hypnotherapy as the result of a very bitter, non-instigated divorce a few years ago.
Hypnotherapy allowed me to re-focus on the positive aspects of my life and re-trained my very negative brain to be positive and look at a new positive future.
I am now a full time hypnotherapy practitioner allowing me to focus on helping people and making a difference to their lives.

The main aim of the AfSFH is to spread awareness of the benefits of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Its secondary aim is to support Hypnotherapists in their businesses by encouraging good practice and self-care.

Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
Information about health conditions (*)
Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.
