We Offer Solution Focused Hypnotherapy
This type of therapy is based on the idea that solutions to problems can be found by focusing on the positive aspects of a situation. The therapist will use a set techniques and processes to encourage the client find their own solutions.
Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy has been shown to be effective for a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression and low mood, stress, phobia, smoking cessation and even weight loss. It is a non-invasive and gentle therapy that can be used to help people with mental health and helps change negative patterns of thinking.
Solution-focused hypnotherapists differ from other types of hypnosis treatments because instead of looking at the past and unpicking past trauma, the therapist focuses on the future. The focus is on establishing what the client would like to see in their future and how they can achieve this.
What to expect
Initial conversation
Your first session is an initial consultation which is usually an hour. This is where you and the solution-focused hypnotherapist will discuss your goals and what you hope to achieve from therapy along with taking basic administration details.
Your hypnotherapist will then ask you about your current circumstances and how they’re affecting you. They’ll also ask you about your past experiences.
There will be an agreement to the expected number of sessions and the cost.
Discussion
Once your therapist has a good understanding of your problem, there will be a plan agreed to the next steps between yourself and the therapist.
This will involve setting realistic goals and identifying any obstacles that might be preventing you from achieving these goals.
As well as discussing any positive changes you’ll want to make, your hypnotherapist will discuss the physiology of the brain and how the brain works, this will give you a clear guide to how the therapy works and what to expect.
Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a natural state of being, you’ve probably experienced a trance-like state many times in your life. An example of this relaxed state of being could be when you’re driving and suddenly realise you can’t remember the last few miles, or when you’re absorbed in a book and the outside world fades away.
During hypnosis, your solution-focused hypnotherapist will help you to relax and enter a relaxed state. Once you are here, the subconscious mind is more open to change the hypnotherapist will then give a series of suggestions and new ideas to help bring about positive change. You will feel extremely relaxed and calm and aware of everything around you. Many clients find this deeply relaxed state a very pleasant and enjoyable experience.
It’s worth noting that hypnotherapy is very safe, you cannot get stuck in a trance, and you are always in control and able to always wake at any time.
You should start to notice some positive changes in your life immediately.
