Hypnotherapy is a safe, powerful psychotherapeutic tool which can be used to break the negative cycle of depression and anxiety.
It can help with addictions, anger, blood pressure, weight control, lack of confidence, insomnia, IBS, relationship/marital difficulties, migraine, nail biting, nightmares, obsessions, panic attacks, fears, phobias, stress and many more.
I am currently training for a Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma at The Clifton Practice in Bristol) and will qualify in June 2022.
As a student member of the Association of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH) and the National Council for Hypnotherapists (NCH) I am able to work with clients free of charge until March 2022. The number of sessions needed will vary, for example:
Treatment of phobias would usually require 3 sessions,
Treatment of depression or anxiety may require approximately 8 – 10 sessions.
Anti-smoking – a single session.
How does solution focused hypnotherapy work?
First, we have an initial consultation which helps us to get to know what it is you want to achieve. You decide on your goals. During the first session I will explain to you how the brain works, why you feel the way you do and what we can do about it. At the end of the session, you will be given a download to listen to every night as you go to sleep which will help to begin the process of recovery.
After the initial consultation solution focussed sessions will typically follow the same format.
• First, you decide the goals of your treatment and what you would like to achieve.
• Next, we discuss ways of coping with the challenges, how our hopes and fears affect the way we feel and respond to different situations.
• Then I will help you to set achievable goals for the coming week.
