The Surrey Hypnotherapy Clinic

Hello. I’m Peter.

I help people to move forward in their lives, enthusiastically and confidently, by eliminating the unconscious anxieties, doubts and insecurities that are holding them back from enjoying their life to the full, and stopping them from achieving so much more in their lives.

I work online, using Zoom, and I do offer a free meeting, using Zoom, where you can find out more about what therapy involves, how therapy works and what therapy can achieve, and how you, or someone you know, could benefit from therapy.

To find out more just reach out to me on the following email:-

peterback@surrey-hypnotherapy.com

Thank you.

'Night Terrors' are a problem that can, most definitely, be fixed using therapy - and there is absolutely no need for anyone to have to go to bed at night, fearful of waking up and finding out that they may have hurt a loved one because they have experienced a 'Night Terror'.

So, if you, or someone you know, suffers from 'Night Terrors', please feel free to put them in touch with me, so that we can work, together, to sort their problem out, using Zoom, for remote, online therapy.

To arrange a free initial consultation, using Zoom, just email me, Peter Back, on the following email:-

The following case study shows exactly what can be achieved, and how a client can feel, before, during, and after, their therapy for Night Terrors, together with the client's thoughts, in their own words.

(please note that this case study is entirely confidential, and not to be copied, reused or republished elsewhere, without my consent.)

So, there follows a recent real life ‘case study’ of the use of Hypnosis therapy for successfully helping a person with their ‘Night Terrors’ - as used for a middle aged man who first contacted me one January in connection with his ‘Night Terrors’.

The middle aged man was divorced, and now living with his new partner, and had a fairly stressful life, as you can imagine, having a young son in primary school, for whom he had to negotiate child care sharing arrangements, with his ex-wife.

It seemed that what was happening, for him, was that, maybe once or twice a month, he would experience some kind of ‘night terror’/nightmare when sleeping, where he would be thrashing about and waking up angry, and in a panic.

In his initial enquiry email he said:-

“𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒊𝒏𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒔𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒅𝒖𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒉𝒚𝒑𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒊𝒔𝒕 𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒎𝒆 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒂 𝒄𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒄 𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒆 𝑰’𝒗𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒐𝒓𝒔. 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒆 𝒆𝒑𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒅𝒆𝒔 𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒘𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒖𝒑 𝒊𝒏 𝒂 𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒄, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒖𝒏𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒚, 𝑰 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒂𝒄𝒄𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒉𝒖𝒓𝒕 𝒎𝒚 𝒘𝒊𝒇𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒎𝒚 𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒏 𝒅𝒖𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔.

𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒔𝒆𝒆𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒐𝒓 𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒕𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒆 𝒏𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒐𝒓𝒔, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑰 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝒉𝒚𝒑𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒚 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒃𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍.”

And he was contacting me because he was concerned that the frequency of these events was increasing, and he was concerned that he might endanger his partner who would be asleep next to him.

This problem had been going on for 5 years and it seemed that the frequency and severity of his Night Terrors was increasing, and that these events were disruptive to family life, and potentially very harmful to his sleeping partner.

At his initial consultation, and something that he hadn’t approached me for help for, but which he did mention, almost in passing, was that he revealed that he considered himself to be a “functioning alcoholic”, and he couldn’t stop at just one drink; he seemed to be very much a bit of a ‘binge drinker’, and was not able to stop at having just one drink.

He had made an appointment to start therapy with another therapist the next day (who was a 'suggestion hypnotherapy' type of hypnotherapist, using suggestions in a similar way to what you might expect from a 'stage hypnotist'), but following his initial consultation chat with me he cancelled that appointment and decided instead to go ahead with me and my preferred, and recommended, approach to therapy, which is one of working with the client to help the client to first identify, and then neutralise, the 'root cause' of a client's problem(s).

During his initial consultation he also revealed that he’d had a horrible divorce, and had a young primary school age child by his divorced wife, and had lost his job in the past – all things that some might have expected to come up at some time during his therapy, although none of them actually did.

Anyway, at the beginning of his final 7th session (of ‘suggestion hypnotherapy’) we had a bit of a chat as to how he was feeling after his therapy that he'd had so far, during which he revealed:

- He was doing very well !

- During the past 3-4 weeks he had experienced peaks of happiness !

- The night terrors had gone !

- He felt that he could “stand up for himself more” (when talking of his relationship with his young son…) !

- He was experiencing, and enjoying, peaceful feelings !

- He now recognised (just before his final session 7) that his Night Terrors had now stopped completely !

- His partner had commented just the day before that he hadn’t had a drink for weeks (in fact not at all during his entire therapy), and he had lost 2kg in weight as a result !

- He had felt his “inner child had had to be heard” (his phraseology, not mine)

- He had really enjoyed his therapy !

- He agreed to write up a little review/testimonial of his therapy for me to show to other clients.

I received his review/testimonial, one week after his final session, and it reads as follows:-

So, I think the main takeaways from his therapy experience are:-

- Obviously yet another success for my kind of therapy !

- No matter how empathetic we might pride ourselves on being, as therapists, it is still very difficult for us to fully appreciate, and fully understand, the significance of our client’s difficulties, and just how much they are being held back in their lives by their problem – until such time that a client might write up their own thoughts on their therapy, using their own words.

- He consulted me initially for just the one problem, 'Night Terrors', however my therapy doesn't explicitly target the specific symptom or problem area presented by the client, and, as a result of his therapy not only did his 'Night Terrors' stop but he also stopped his binge drinking, and also lost some weight, and so it benefitted him in other areas as well (and probably also, in addition, with an associated improvement in confidence, self-esteem/self-worth, resilience, energy levels and vitality etc. etc.).

Or, In his words:-

"𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝑷𝒆𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂 𝒔𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒐𝒇 1 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒍𝒆𝒎.

𝑰 𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒂𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒚 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒘𝒆𝒅."

- Because the nature of the difficulty here was one of night terrors, which occur, obviously, when a person is asleep and effectively ‘unconscious’, it is difficult to believe that any other form of counteractive and cognitive type therapy (such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), or ‘psychoeducation’, or the sole use of ‘suggestion hypnotherapy’), would have been able to get anywhere close to helping this guy with his particular problem) – it was a problem that could only respond well only by addressing its unconscious causes, with the right kind of therapy.

'Night Terrors' are a problem that can, most definitely, be fixed - and there is absolutely no need for anyone to have to go to bed at night, fearful of waking up and finding out that they may have hurt a loved one because they have experienced a 'Night Terror'.

SIX LITTLE STORIES...
little stories..With Lots of Meanings

1. Once all villagers decided to pray for rain. On the day of prayer, all the people gathered, but only one boy came with an umbrella. That is faith.

2. When you throw babies in the air, they laugh because they know you will catch them. That is trust.

3. Every night we go to bed without any assurance of being alive the next morning, but we still set the alarms to wake up. That is hope.

4. We plan big things for tomorrow in spite of zero knowledge of the future. That is confidence.

5. We see the world suffering, but still, we get married and have children. That is love.

6. On an old man's shirt was written a sentence "I am not 80 years old; I am sweet 16 with 64 years of experience." That is attitude.
