Why
Cognitive
Hypnotherapy?
Hypnosis is simply a very relaxed state of mind. Clients stay in full control and can’t be made to do or say anything they don’t want to.
​
One of the questions that I’m most frequently asked is “do you think I’m susceptible?” and my answer is an easy yes because it’s just a very relaxed state, similar to when you’re reading a book or watching tv and you’re so engrossed in the story that you don’t hear someone else talking to you. We all drift in and out of this relaxed state all of the time.
​
As a cognitive hypnotherapist I combine this relaxed mind with a variety of techniques to guide each client to reach the solution that they want to achieve. Because everyone is unique, I use techniques that are specifically chosen to suit each individual person from a wide range of the most successful therapies including NLP, AMDR, Positive Psychology and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Together, our aim will be to improve your problem in the shortest time possible.
​
I believe that everyone has the resources they need to make the changes they want in their life. I can be your guide and enable you to find your own solutions with skilled assistance. So I can gently support you as you change unwanted behaviour and thoughts and move towards achieving the solution you want.
​
Cognitive Hypnotherapy works on the basis that trance states are everyday experiences. It’s those moments where you’re doing things without thinking about what you’re doing, like driving to work while mentally rehearsing what you’re going to say at your meeting later on or when you clean your teeth while thinking about the day ahead.
Neuroscience suggests that we’re in these states for 95% of the time. It's these unconscious thought processes that cause us to repeatedly behave in ways that consciously, we’d prefer not to, like overeating, negative thinking or avoidance.
​
I know that everybody is unique and so I will tailor our sessions to suit your individual problems and goals and means you could be amazed at what you can achieve by letting go of old habits and patterns of behaviour and thinking.
My aim is for you to receive the highest quality service and for you to reach your goals in the shortest time possible.
