Hypnotherapy

 

Clinical hypnotherapy is a form of psychotherapy that uses altered states of awareness to achieve a therapeutic
end result. It is goal orientated, focussing attention internally, reaccessing resources and creating new
associations and patterns of thought and behaviour.

What problems can benefit?

• Stopping smoking and other addictions
• Weight control
• Pain management
• Confidence building
• Phobias
• Anxiety
• Stress

What does it feel like?

In clinical hypnosis there is no loss of consciousness or control. It is not sleep but a halfway state in which specific suggestions are made to address the condition for which help is sought. No one can be hypnotised against their will.
It is essentially a deepened natural state. We all spend part of our life in a degree of hypnosis – daydreaming
and ‘switching off’.
