Why Hypnotherapy?

 

 

When you are struggling to achieve some sort of change, whether it’s a feeling or a habit, whether it’s something you want more of, like confidence, or less of, like anxiety, the problem is that the change you want doesn’t fit with the established programs in your mind.

​

Let’s think of a couple of examples. If you want to stop smoking, the problem is that your mind thinks you get something from it that you can’t be without, so when you try to stop, it will send you cravings, prompting you to smoke. If you are struggling to be free from anxiety, the problem can be that your mind thinks you to need the anxiety to be alert and ready for perceived threats or just vulnerability, so it will keep giving you those negative feelings. So, the surprising thing is that there’s always a positive intention behind the program, no matter how strange that seems. It’s in that knowledge though, that the solution you’re looking for lies.

​

Problem programming can happen as a result of a number of different things, like trauma, impacted self-esteem, conditioning and the problem having once been a solution that worked for you at the time. It can feel like a battle raging within your own mind. However, because of how hypnotherapy works, you can change that.

​

All your programming exists in your unconscious mind. This is where your view of yourself and all your drives and feelings come from. The issue is that you have no waking access to it, or any meaningful control over it. If we had conscious control over our programs, no one would smoke, no one would feel anxious when there is no danger, and phobias would be easily eradicated with a single thought.

​

With your willingness, I can use deep relaxation hypnosis techniques to access your unconscious mind and deliver appealing alternative suggestions, aimed at replacing the negative thing with a positive one, and all specifically tailored to you and to your objectives.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming

​

N.L.P. has been with us for decades, and yet few people have heard of it, or experienced it.

​

The techniques used in N.L.P. work with what we know about the way the brain works, influential language and the power of association to affect rapid changes. In my practice I mostly use the techniques to:

​

• Change the Effects of Negative Memories

• Eliminate Fears & Phobias

• Reduce / Eliminate Physical Pain

• Bring About a Positive Feeling at Will

​

Although we work with these techniques consciously, they work alongside hypnotherapy perfectly, and enable my clients to achieve outstanding results.
