Clinical Hypnotherapy

What is Clinical hynpotherapy?

Clinical hypnosis is a research based method of therapy that is underpinned by the science of psychoneuroimmunology, or PNI, which is the connection between the physiological and psychological person.

Hypnosis is a completely normal state that occurs in everyone when certain physiological and psychological conditions are in place. This can happen naturally several times a day, as in daydreaming or reverie, but when brought about deliberately with the aid of a hypnotherapist it can be used to achieve specific goals, indeed it is possible to influence and direct changes in feelings and belief systems and therefore ultimately behaviour.

Hypnosis induces a deeply relaxed but fully conscious cognitive state which allows heightened awareness, creativity and the absorption of beneficial suggestion and learning.

How can it help you

Hypnosis may be successfully used to address problems originating from past or present trauma; the stresses and anxieties caused by contemporary life; or to overcome unwanted habits or create desired new ones, for example:

Improve self esteem
Overcome anxiety
Support weight loss
Phobia management
Panic attacks
Public speaking
Performance anxiety
Anger management
Stress management
Exam nerves
Reduce IBS symptoms
Motivation improvement
Sports performance
Confidence building
Goals: establishing what you want and moving towards it

Hypnosis is not something done to you, it is a completely natural and safe mammalian state, the hypnotherapist simply guides you to your desired outcome.

Nobody can be hypnotised against their will, nor made to do anything they do not want to do, the hypnotised person is always in control.
