Hypnotherapy

What is it?

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, re-accessing resources and creating new associations and patterns of thought and behaviour.

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’.
