The Therapies
Suggestion therapy
This type of hypnotherapy uses a combination of hypnosis and post-hypnotic suggestion and is very successful at treating so-called minor conditions or for achieving short-term goals. Many conditions can be helped by this method including:
- Smoking Cessation
- Weight loss and slimming
- Relaxation
- Calmness and confidence
- Nail biting
- Exam or test nerves
- Public speaking or presentations
Suggestion therapy is usually effective immediately, and hence only one or sometimes two sessions would be required - with perhaps a booster at a later date, and is an ideal therapy for one-off situational problems.
Analytical Therapy
Analytical therapy or hypno-analysis is based on the principle that every effect or symptom must have a cause. It's a very gentle way of uncovering the original cause of the symptoms, which are having such a negative impact on your day-to-day life. Emotional problems respond particularly well to hypno-analysis.
A typical weekly session involves using hypnosis to help you relax and feel safe and comfortable. For the remainder of the session, time is given for you to talk through some of the experiences in your life. Slowly linking these experiences together allows you to go back to those 'bottled up' emotions that are causing the problem, and together we talk through these strong emotions until they are fully resolved.
Some of the problems that can be helped by hypno-analysis are highlighted below but the list is by no means exhaustive:
- General anxiety
- IBS
- Sexual problems
- Sleep disorders
- Social phobia
- Specific phobia
- Depression
- OCD
- Eating disorders
- Panic attacks
- Migraines
- Stress
- Chronic fatigue syndrome
- Stuttering
- Low self esteem
- Weight loss
The object of the analysis is to bring you to a moment of surprising and liberating enlightenment, and one can be fairly confident that a release will be obtained usually within six to ten sessions. By finding and removing the originating cause you will experience complete and lasting immediate relief from your symptoms.
This is a totally private, confidential and individual therapy where the therapist builds a relationship with you to help you remove the 'subconscious' cause of your condition.
The free initial consultation is the first step. This allows us to discuss whether your problem can be treated with hypnotherapy, and if so, estimate how many sessions will be required to help you resolve your issues.
