How It Works
I tailor each treatment programme towards individual needs. These are the skills I use:
- Counselling
- Hypnotherapy
- Healing
- Massage
Before treatment can begin, you will need to attend an initial consultation with me where we decide on a programme suited to your individual needs. These consultations last 90 minutes. After the consultation, treatment will take place in sessions lasting between 75-90 minutes. I normally recommend that clients commit to five sessions at weekly intervals. After the five sessions, further progress is negotiable.
Hypnosis and the Mind
Hypno-psychotherapy recognises that there are many ways of looking at how the mind works. Some people, for instance, take the view that our thoughts and actions are mainly affected by the way we look at the world and how it treats us. Others believe that we are mostly driven by our ‘subconscious’ mind, which is taken to be the store of all our past experiences and emotions. Whatever theory of the mind is applied, hypnosis can be integrated with appropriate psychotherapeutic approaches to help bring about positive changes.
Helping Bring About Change
Hypnosis customarily creates a deeply relaxed state in which mental stress and bodily tension are reduced. In this relaxed state, the mind is usually more open to the process of change. As such, client and therapist can safely work together, using an agreed approach, to enhance mental, physical and emotional well being.
The Hypnosis Session
Generally speaking, during the hypnosis session itself, the client is invited to relax in an armchair or couch and is then guided into a state of deep physical and mental relaxation.
In The Hypnotic State
While in hypnosis, the client is still generally aware of their surroundings and can choose to come out of hypnosis at any time. No responsible therapist would attempt to hypnotise anyone against their will, or encourage an individual to act against their natural inclinations whilst in hypnosis.
After the Hypnosis Session
At the end of the hypnosis session, the client will be gently returned to the normal waking state. Most new clients are surprised at how far away the reality of hypnotherapy is from any prior expectation of ‘mind control’ and find the experience deeply relaxing.
