What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness whereby deep-rooted habits
and psychological disturbances may be accessed and an inner will of
strength and resources utilised to create new beliefs.
The altered state occurring under hypnosis can
be likened to a state of deep meditation,
where the recuperative abilities of the psyche are allowed to flow more
freely. Hypnosis is a waking state; the hypnotised
person remains in full control of his or her behavior, and usually is able
to recall the whole experience. Hypnotherapy has been used to treat
addictions, relieve stress and help individuals develop a more positive
attitude in general.
NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is concerned
primarily with identifying the ways in which we have been programmed to
think, act, feel and learning how to free ourselves from unwanted limiting
habits and beliefs.
What are the sorts of problems that Hypnotherapy can help with?
Weight Loss, Bulimia, Bed Wetting, Bereavement, Confidence, Habits
(Smoking/Drugs - Cocaine & Cannabis/Nail Biting) Motivation, Phobias, Sexual Problems,
Stress.Headaches, Panic Attacks.
During hypnosis will I be aware of what is
happening around me?
Fact - You are fully aware of what is going on around
you, what's more I cannot make anyone do anything under Hypnosis that they would
not normally do.
How many sessions will I need and how long will each
session last?
Sessions are usually between one hour
and 1 hour thirty minutes, with the first 20 minutes being used to get
to know you and understand your problem, the Hypnotherapy session will be
about 45-60 minutes, with the final 5-10 minutes to talk about the session
and the way forward.
One session is usually enough. There are certain
things like Weight loss that may have to be addressed with three sessions,
this is because it is usually a two sided problem and an on-going process
"the need to feel good" and "the need to eat less".
Some phobias may also require two - three sessions.
Will it be successful?
I wouldn't be telling the truth if I said Yes, but what I can say is if
you really want it to work then the chance of success is very high indeed.
I am very embarrassed about my problem and I don't want to talk to
anyone about my problem directly.
This is very common and you must be aware that a one to
one session involves history notes being taken, these will remain strictly
confidential between myself and the client.
