What to Expect From Your Sessions
How I Work:
A lot of people come to me having already tried things that didn’t quite work. Maybe talking therapy that helped them understand their problems but didn’t actually change how they felt. Maybe a few sessions of hypnotherapy that worked for a bit, but then the problem returned or manifested into something else.
That’s usually because they were only dealing with the symptoms. It’s a bit like cutting a weed off at the top. It looks better for a while, but the root is still there so it grows back.
I work differently. I don’t just suppress symptoms. I focus on what’s keeping them going. And I don’t do that by digging through your past or making you relive difficult experiences. You don’t need to know why something started to make it stop. What matters is what’s keeping it going now, and that’s something we can change.
This takes a bit longer than a temporary quick fix. Most people work with me for somewhere between 6 and 8 sessions, which can be paced to suit your financial circumstances.
Sessions:
Your First Session:
We start with a full consultation. We’ll talk about what’s going on for you, what you want to achieve, and how I can help. I’ll ask some questions so I can build a picture of what’s happening and put together a plan tailored to you. Then we’ll finish with a relaxing hypnosis treatment.
By the end, you’ll have a better understanding of how your brain works, why it’s been causing you to think, feel and behave the way you have, and what we can do to change that. You’ll also get a hypnosis recording to listen to between sessions to support the work we’re doing together.
Please allow up to one hour for the initial session.
Follow-Up Sessions:
Each session is future focused. We don’t go over the past and the problems. Instead we look at what’s been better since we last met, and then focus on how you want things to be going forward. We build on what’s working and strengthen the new patterns in your subconscious.
There’s no one size fits all. Depending on what you need, sessions might include hypnotherapy, NLP, coaching or EFT. And each session is tailored not just to the original plan but to what comes up on the day.
One of the things I love about this work is that your subconscious keeps processing between sessions. It’s common for ideas and solutions to pop up when you’re least expecting them.
Please allow up to 50 minutes for these sessions.
Your Questions Answered
Despite what others might have you believe, there’s no superior therapeutic technique or silver-bullet cure. My method is as unique as you are, and my experience and intuition helps me find the best fit for your individual goals to help you achieve success in the shortest time possible.
Hypnosis allows for deep self-exploration and so those who are open and receptive to the process will be a great candidate for hypnotherapy. It is important therefore that you want change and are motivated and committed to achieving your therapy goals.
Hypnotherapy is great for those wanting help with a physical, emotional or behavioural issue. If there is something holding you back from achieving greatness, harmony and fulfilment, contact me to find out how I might be able to help.
It can be argued that all hypnosis is in fact self-hypnosis. It’s not something that can be done to you. As a hypnotherapist I use a gentle tone to guide you into a calm, relaxed state, offering comforting suggestions that you can either choose to accept or resist. When you accept those suggestions, your breathing with slow down and you will start experiencing a sense of peacefulness. It can be likened to that fuzzy warm feeling you got as a child when you were read a bedtime story, semi-paying attention to the words but often drifting in and out. Or when you’re driving on auto-pilot, not thinking about where you’re going but trusting your body to do what it knows how to do to get you to your destination safely. So it is a very naturally occurring state that allows us to communicate with the subconscious more directly.
