Hypnosis / Hypnotherapy


​​Hypnosis is a conscious experience and one which you have already experienced, perhaps without even knowing it. A familiar experience such as when daydreaming or being absorbed in a book or listening to a piece of music can produce this same  state of awareness.

You are still aware of what is going on around you, however, this appears less important at that time, as your mind is focused on your activity.
Hypnosis can extend and amplify these normal, temporary states of awareness that you allow yourself to enter.

During an hypnotherapy session, you are aware and in full control throughout. It is usually an enjoyable experience involving physical relaxation.
​
As external surroundings become less important, you become more aware of internal events and focus on making the desired changes that are helpful for you.
Hypnotherapy utilizes this heightened awareness to help you physically relax, while the mind becomes focused on responding to positive suggestions and ideas that we have discussed beforehand that are going to help you discover solutions to difficulties that you have been experiencing.
The initial consultation for hypnotherapy work is approximately 90 mins. Part of the consultation will involve establishing whether you have any previous experience and understanding of hypnosis, also common myths / misconceptions concerning hypnosis can be cleared up. During this consultation, you will have the opportunity to safely explore aspects of yourself and your engagement in life, that you would like to change. I usually take brief notes in session which enables me to reflect on the consultation afterwards. I can then create a bespoke hypnotherapy framework post consultation, that is realistically aligned with the goals you want to achieve.
A brief experiential taster of aspects of the hypnosis session (without the therapy component) are included nearer the end of the consultation for you to relax and enjoy!
After the initial consultation, you will be invited to book in for your first bespoke Hypnotherapy session (60 mins). Any subsequent sessions following this, if required can be booked in at a mutually convenient time.

How many Hypnotherapy sessions will I need? 
This can be difficult to answer with any great certainty. Factors to take into consideration, will be your current mindset, the presenting condition, and your response to hypnotherapy. Hypnosis is usually a shorter term therapy. Guidelines may well be offered at the end of the consultation.

Initial Consultation for Hypnotherapy £60.00 (90 mins). Hypnotherapy sessions thereafter £60.00 (60 mins)
