Hypnotherapy
While I can assist with a range of issues, people typically seek my help for the ones listed below. If your concern isn’t mentioned, I’m confident I can still assist, and if not, I may be able to refer you to someone who can.
I offer all clients a free telephone consultation, providing an opportunity to discuss your concerns and ask any questions.
Smoking Cessation
Hypnotherapy is increasingly popular for helping clients quit smoking. It works by breaking down the negative behaviours and thought patterns associated with smoking, which often hinder success in quitting. However, it’s crucial for the client to understand their own reasons for wanting to stop. The decision to quit should come from the client themselves, rather than from a desire to please others, as hypnotherapy is most effective when the client genuinely wants to quit.
Weight Management
Hypnotherapy for weight management can transform how you perceive your food choices. While it may seem difficult to replace your favourite foods, such as chocolate, with healthier options, hypnotherapy techniques can shift your thinking patterns. You could gain control over cravings without feeling deprived. By making powerful suggestions to your subconscious mind, hypnotherapy can help you develop a positive relationship with food and exercise. It may also boost your confidence in your body and alter negative thought patterns about eating, all without affecting your emotional wellbeing.
Overcome Fears & Phobias
Phobias are very common and often irrational, involving situations or objects that pose no real danger. Common phobias include acrophobia (fear of heights), aviophobia (fear of flying), and arachnophobia (fear of spiders). Phobias can develop for various reasons; they may run in families or be learned behaviours. For example, a child might develop a phobia by observing a family member’s reaction to a specific object or situation. Traumatic experiences and brain chemistry are also thought to play a role in the development of phobias.
Hypnotherapy aims to identify the root cause of a phobia and helps the individual respond more calmly when faced with the feared object or situation in the future. It can also assist with relaxation, visualisation, and desensitisation techniques to establish new habits and behaviours.
Reduce Panic Attacks, Stress & Anxiety
Hypnotherapy may help clients overcome social and generalised phobias. Whether you experience mild anxiety in social situations or suffer from full-blown panic attacks, it can significantly impact your life. It’s normal to feel a bit nervous or anxious about meeting new people or going to unfamiliar places, but when the fear becomes disproportionate to the situation, it can develop into social anxiety or social phobia, which I understand can severely affect your quality of life.
Anxiety can manifest in varying degrees, with severe anxiety disorders disrupting daily life. It may stem from a past event and the fear of it recurring. The good news is that hypnotherapy sessions may help improve your situation. Hypnotherapy aims to uncover the root cause of the anxiety and alter your perception of a past event or release the associated emotions.
Driving Test & Exam Nerves
Hypnotherapy may help overcome nerves associated with driving tests or exams. Success in these situations isn’t just about knowledge but also about mindset. Feeling calm, relaxed, focused, and confident while studying or taking the test greatly increases the chances of reaching your full potential. Achieving this mindset is a skill that can often be developed by adopting new ways of thinking through various techniques.
During hypnosis, we may bypass the conscious mind and introduce suggestions to the subconscious, enabling them to work together. This process can help train your imagination to support you, rather than hinder you.
Confidence Boosting
Confidence is an attractive quality that can significantly impact various aspects of your life. Imagine how much more you could achieve in your career with greater confidence in meetings and presentations, or how your social life might improve with increased self-assurance. Confidence is a learned behaviour, and hypnotherapy may help you develop positive new behaviours and attitudes that you can control. High levels of confidence can greatly benefit all areas of life, including relationships, career, social interactions, and overall mental wellbeing. Many people who lack self-confidence wish to be more confident, and hypnotherapy aims to identify the root cause and find ways to resolve it.
Pain Management
If you’re experiencing pain, it’s important to consult your doctor. They can investigate the cause and determine the best treatment. Pain is the leading reason people seek medical help, and painkillers are the most commonly prescribed medication. Pain can result from surgery, injury, illness, or disease, often accompanied by stress and anxiety, which can intensify the sensation. The mind’s response to pain is closely tied to how physical sensations are perceived. While medical professionals can help manage the condition itself, therapies like hypnotherapy may assist in managing related symptoms and altering how you cope with pain.
