hypnotherapy treatments
anxiety & stress
Stress is something most of us experience at sometime in our lives. The feeling of being stressed can be triggered by an event that makes you feel frustrated and nervous.
Anxiety is the feeling of fear, worry and unease. The symptoms of anxiety or stress are driven by a chemical reaction in the brain, our primitive brain does not understand the difference between an imagined threat and a real threat, so when you negatively forecast the future and worry about things that would probably never happen anyway, your body will react with symptoms of anxiety and stress.
Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapy will help you to relax and focus on the positive aspects of your life, instead of the negative. Hypnotherapy can help you to change your unwanted behaviour patterns, helping you to feel healthy, calm and in control.
DEPRESSION
Depression is a common disorder that causes people to experience a low mood, a loss of interest or pleasure in life events, feelings of isolation, guilt and low self worth. Our sleep patterns can be disrupted causing fatigue, low energy and poor concentration. Depression is more than simply feeling down or sad. We all go through spells of feeling down, but when you are depressed you feel persistently sad for weeks or months rather than a few days. Living with depression is difficult, not only for the person who is suffering, but also for family, friends and colleagues.
Hypnotherapy can be a real and effective tool to help with depression. The solution focused approach does not revisit the past but helps you to focus on the positive future and helps you to begin to enjoy life again. I will help you to understand why you suffer the way you do and I will explain how depression is created. Hypnotherapy can be a source of control and inspiration to help you when you are going through a depressive phase, helping you get back to the old you. It is often the first step to feeling confident and reassured, so you can begin to enjoy life again, feeling more relaxed and in control.
INSOMNIa & SLEEP PROBLEMS
Would you like to reprogram your body and brain to sleep better?
We perform at our best when we are getting enough sleep. Our overall health can rapidly deteriorate when we are struggling to keep an effective sleep routine.
As a Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist, I recognise that good quality sleep is important for our overall well-being and I work with every client to develop better sleep habits.
Are you having difficulty getting to sleep at night? Do you find yourself waking during the night and then clock watching for hours only to find when the alarm goes off in the morning you are to tired to get up? Sleep is probably one of the most important factors for your all round physical and mental health. When we work on your sleep problems, we work on all areas of your life and deal with all the issues that are keeping you awake.
WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapy could help you achieve your ideal weight. You may wish to lose weight or gain weight. Hypnotherapy can help you deal with the emotional ups and downs we all encounter from time to time.
Hypnotherapy can help you deal with the underlying issues that get in the way of managing your weight. If you want to feel more motivated to eat responsibly and make better choices with your food and exercise, I offer different weight management packages. We can discuss which is best for you during the initial consultation.
EATING DISORDERS
Eating disorders can be extremely dangerous on both our physical and mental health.
Anorexia and Bulimia can often come from outside factors, affecting how we feel about ourselves and making us restrict our food intake. One such factor that can lead to the development of eating disorders is trying to fit into a false socially-accepted physical standard. Another, is having a distorted relationship with the body we have.
Recovering from an eating disorder can be difficult and draining. Hypnotherapy provides support by helping to build a healthy mindset to help change the way we view the body that is doing so much for us.
Hypnotherapy can help with eating disorders and food phobias. Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapy will help you to change your negative thoughts around food and replace them with positive thoughts and behaviours.
PAIN MANAGEMENT
Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapy can be used to manage acute or chronic pain.
Whether you are suffering from an injury or ailment such as a headache, toothache or a muscular ache or strain. Hypnotherapy can also help with long term pain such as arthritis.
During hypnotic sessions I can help you to change the way your brain receives the pain and as a result it will help you reduce the intensity of the pain.
IBS
Hypnotherapy is now acknowledged within the wider medical professions as an evidence based therapy that can help reduce the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome and sometimes alleviate the symptoms entirely. The National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) also lists hypnotherapy as one of the treatments to help with IBS.
PHOBIAS
Phobias are learned behaviours from bad experiences and can be specific (spiders, flying, etc.) or non-specific (panic attacks, agrophobia or social phobia, etc.).
A phobia can stop you doing the things you want to do. They can be triggered by actual events or they can be imagined events. When we have a phobic response we set down templates in the brain, so each time we have a response we set down even more.
During hypnotherapy we disrupt the templates and replace them with new ones. Hypnotherapy can easily treat phobias in three sessions; relaxation, rewind and reframe.
SMOKING CESSATION
If you smoke and want to give up, hypnotherapy could help you to use your imagination to create a non-smoking future. In fact hypnotherapy is one of the most successful ways to stop smoking, because willpower alone is often not enough. Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapy will change the way you depend on cigarettes and help you to achieve that smoke free future.
The smoking session will last for around 90 minutes, followed with a relaxation session one week later which will last approximately 45 minutes. I will send you a smoke free preparation sheet and hypnotherapy recording to listen to before your session, this helps you to start learning how to relax and prepare you for your smoke free future.
ADDICTIONS
An addiction is an urge to do something that is hard to control or stop.
Substance abuse such as alcohol or drugs are the most common addictions but we can become addicted to activities such as gambling, gaming and social media.
Hypnotherapy can help with all types of addiction
Children's
HYNOPTHERAPY
Hypnotherapy is completely natural and safe for children. It can help your child to feel happier and more confident. Hypnotherapy for children is adapted to your child’s age. I will talk to your child about their issues and then we will practice relaxation and hypnotherapy.
The length of this part will depend on the child's age and attention span. I use stories and metaphors to capture the child's imagination. Children are very good at using their imagination and I will encourage your child to engage in active imagination games.
I ask that you stay with your child during the hypnotherapy session. I will talk directly to your child rather than just asking you questions and I ask that you let your child answer in their own way. Older children may want to have the session on their own, but I ask that you sit outside the door which will be left open at all times. Hypnotherapy can help children to deal with a vast amount of problems.
CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Conflicts often occur in our daily lives and if not managed properly can have a negative impact on our relationships. Conflicts can occur at work, with friends, family or even partners.
Hypnotherapy can help you to take a step back, helping you to express your thoughts and feelings, so you can better manage conflicts and find a resolution.
I have completed a specialist relationship repair course and offer individual or couple resolution sessions.
SELF-HARM
Self harm is often a way of coping with painful and upsetting feelings.
Hypnotherapy can help you with those feelings and help you explore other underlying issues you may be going through.
FERTILITY & CONCEPTION
Every year couples pursue treatments with the goal of having a baby. Most will consult conventional doctors and may undergo high tech procedures such as IVF, the success rate for those who undergo these procedures is around 25%.
More women are seeking out complimentary therapy's and hypnotherapy is a powerful mind body approach. Changing your mindset changes how your body responds.
When a women can attain personal empowerment then she will truly be able to let nature take its course.
FEAR OF CHILDBIRTH
Couples who are worried about conception, pregnancy and birth are less likely to conceive than those who are relaxed. Sometimes woman can be overwhelmed and have a deep rooted fear about giving birth, hypnotherapy can empower the mother and help her to achieve a gentle, calm birth for both her and baby.
Physical and emotional barriers around conception, pregnancy and birth can be dissolved through the process of deep states of relaxation induced by hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy is a safe and powerful way to increase the possibility of a successful pregnancy and dispel negative emotions allowing the mind body balance to return to normal
