I'm very cautious and concerned about booking a Hypnotherapist, how do I know if you are right for me?
We
pride ourselves on being able to gain an instant friendly rapport with
our clients, please feel free to contact the practitioner to discuss
suitability for your particular case.
Can anybody be hypnotised?
Yes,
anyone can be hypnotised as long as they want to be and have an ability
to concentrate, everyone goes into natural altered (otherwise known as
'trance') states at some point. It is not appropriate for very young
children or people with certain mental disabilities. I can not force
you to go into hypnosis against your will.
Will I lose control?
No, you remain in control at all times. We or any other Hypnotherapists cannot have control over you.
Will I be made to do something silly?
Any Hypnotherapist will not make you do anything you would not normally
do. This area of misconception is left for Stage Hypnotists.
What is the ’trance state’?
The trance state is simply an altered state of awareness, in which the
client's attention is focussed on inner resources. Although everyone's
experience of trance is slightly different, you'll always feel both
comfortable and relaxed, and may experience a pleasant sense of
'drifting' and detachment from your surroundings.
What does the Hypnotherapy session involve?
Although every session is different, we will first discuss in some
detail the changes you want to achieve, and then explain how it all
works so it will relate to the therapy used. Everything is then geared
to achieving that positive outcome. Progressive relaxation will be used
to achieve a resourceful and relaxed physical and mental state. We then
induce trance and make powerful therapeutic suggestions, tailored to
the client as a unique individual, to the unconscious part of the
client's mind, in order to achieve the positive outcome.
How many sessions will I need?
To stop smoking, usually just one single session will be required. For
anything else, that depends on your motivation and desire to change.
Everybody is different. However, hypnotherapy is a very effective
therapy and I will want to help you in the minimum number of sessions
possible. We will review your progress so that at any time you can make
a valued judgement about how the therapy is progressing and if any more
sessions will be required.
How long does a session last?
Sessions last between fifty minutes, and two hours.
