FAQ'S
WHAT IS SOLUTION FOCUSED HYPNOTHERAPY?
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a type of ‘talking therapy’, that combines the use of psychotherapy with hypnosis. Hypnosis is a natural and relaxing experience which is enhanced by the use of guided relaxation. The mind is relaxed which allows the focus to be on inner thoughts whilst listening to your hypnotherapists calming words that will help you achieve your goals.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF SOLUTION FOCUSED HYPNOTHERAPY?
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is designed to calm the mind and reduce anxiety. Combining the power of psychotherapy and hypnosis, my clients are able to make positive changes in their lives in a relatively short period of time.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SOLUTION FOCUSED HYPNOTHERAPY AND OTHER TYPES OF HYPNOTHERAPY?
Unlike other forms of Hypnotherapy, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy uses a specific structure, which incorporates several aspects of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and combines these with an understanding of how the brain works, in combination with using trance.
WHAT CONDITIONS CAN SOLUTION FOCUSED HYPNOTHERAPY HELP WITH?
I specialise in working on anxiety, low mood, lack of self-esteem, sleep problems, phobias, weight management and chronic pain.
HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
The number of sessions required will differ depending on your circumstances and the reasons for you seeking therapy. We will discuss this in your initial consultation, so I will be able to give you an idea of the number of sessions I would recommend.
DO I LOSE CONTROL DURING HYPNOTHERAPY?
Hypnotherapy creates an induced state of intense concentration or focused attention. This is a guided process with verbal cues and repetition. The trance-like state you enter may appear similar to sleep in many ways, but you're fully aware of what's going on. You will be fully in control at all times.
