Who am I? Hello, my name is Karen Dunnet. I am a fully qualified and experienced Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and I would love to help you to make improvements to your life. I have therapy rooms in both Skipton and Embsay.
What is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy? Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a talking therapy that combines psychotherapy and hypnotherapy. It is based on the latest neuroscience and brain research and has some similarities to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in this respect. It also utilises some aspects of Neuro Linguistic Programming, particularly when dealing with phobias and traumas. The basis of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is that we all have all the resources and strengths that we need to make positive changes to our lives and, as the name suggests, we focus on solutions, not problems. There is no need to delve down into why a problem exists, it can be counterproductive to revisit past, perhaps painful, events. The key is to look forward and to aim for a happy, positive future.
How could Solution Focused Hypnotherapy Help? Life can be challenging, sometimes we find it hard to cope and our anxiety levels rise making us irritable and unhappy. This can affect many aspects of our lives: sleep, self-confidence, weight, aches and pains to name but a few. By recognising that we are suffering, and taking action, we can get back in control of our lives. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can help you to understand what is happening, why you may be suffering and what we can do about it. We work together as a team, with commitment and effort from both you and me.
What to Expect in your First Session: The Initial Consultation lasts for about 1 hour and it is during this session that I would ask you for details of what you feel is wrong with your life and what you would like to change. I then give you a simple explanation of how the brain works, with specific reference to your problem, and how trance can help us to make the changes you wish to achieve in. I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have throughout this session. The Initial Consultation will enable me to develop a personalised treatment plan for you and will also give you all the information you need to decide if this is the right path for you to take.
What Happens Next? If you decide that this is right for you, subsequent sessions last 50 - 60 minutes. We use a combination of psychotherapy techniques and hypnotherapy to help you to focus on the positives and achieve the long-lasting changes you are aiming for.
