Hypnotherapy

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses hypnosis to help individuals access their subconscious mind and make positive changes in their thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. Hypnosis is a state of focused attention and deep relaxation where the mind becomes more open to suggestion, allowing the therapist to work with underlying issues more effectively.

How Does Hypnotherapy Work?

During hypnotherapy sessions, the therapist guides the client into a relaxed, trance-like state. While in this state, the therapist makes suggestions to help the client address specific problems, such as breaking bad habits, overcoming fears, or managing stress and anxiety.

Who Can Benefit from Hypnotherapy?

  • Individuals looking to overcome habits like smoking or overeating
  • Those dealing with anxiety, phobias, or trauma
  • Anyone interested in exploring the power of their subconscious mind for personal growth

Hypnotherapy can help clients unlock their inner potential, making it a powerful tool for personal change and emotional healing.

Psychotherapist & Counsellor

I am a qualified UKCP registered Psychotherapist. I aim to help people heal and integrate. I’m a parent, a skateboarder, a basketball player and I’ve done a lot of therapy.I don't do psychic amputation. I believe you can't cut off a part of yourself you don’t like or that causes you pain - and that you will run into more problems if you try. I do believe you can reach into your heart and soul through therapy and establish a healing relationship that will give you the resources you need to live well and fully.
