What are the benefits of hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a safe, natural state of focused attention that allows your mind to become more receptive to positive change. We are often in this state, e.g, when we are running, absorbed in a TV programme or even that feeling when we realise we have driven for time, not appreciating how far we have come. It is not like stage hypnosis.
During clinical hypnotherapy, you remain aware and in control while your therapist guides you into a deeply relaxed state where new, healthier patterns of thinking can develop. In the hypnotic state, the brain becomes less focused on constant worry and overthinking. This allows you to engage with the helpful thoughts and behaviours you wish to embed into your life.
How long does a hypnotherapy session last?
Each session lasts around 50-55 minutes except the quit smoking, which is 1.5 – 2 hours
Does hypnotherapy work online?
Research shows that online hypnotherapy is just as good as being in a room together.
You may even prefer online as you do not need to travel or park the car, it saves time, and if you are totally relaxed after the hypnosis, you can continue to relax. If you have pets that are very welcome to be with you, they tend to relax very quickly with the hypnosis.
What happens in the first hypnotherapy session?
Your first appointment is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We’ll talk about what you’d like to achieve, the challenges you’re currently facing and the changes you’d like to make.
I’ll also explain how the brain responds to stress and how Solution Focused Hypnotherapy works. Understanding what’s happening in your mind can help you feel more confident and motivated throughout the process.
Unlike some forms of therapy, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy focuses on where you want to go rather than spending lots of time analysing the past.
What happens in a standard hypnotherapy session?
We focus on the areas you want to change and discuss how to make this a success, along with strategies for moving forward.
Towards the end of the session, you’ll be guided into a comfortable state of deep relaxation using your imagination and focused attention. This is known as hypnosis.
You’ll remain aware of what’s happening around you and you’ll hear my voice throughout. Many people describe it as feeling similar to becoming absorbed in a good book, daydreaming or drifting off to sleep.
During hypnosis, your mind becomes calmer and more receptive to positive suggestions that support your goals. Many clients leave feeling deeply relaxed, refreshed and mentally clearer.
What Happens After the Session?
After your session, it’s common to feel calm, refreshed and more optimistic. As your brain begins to build new, healthier patterns of thinking, you may notice improvements in your mood, sleep, confidence and ability to cope with life’s challenges.
Clinical hypnotherapy is a gentle, evidence-informed approach that helps you make lasting positive changes. Whether you’re looking to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, manage menopause symptoms or regain confidence, each session is tailored to your individual goals and designed to help you move forward with greater clarity and resilience.
