What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a widely accepted ,established and recognised treatment and is used for the alleviation and cure for many different problems such as stopping smoking, weight control, improving self confidence and so on. Hypnosis is a state of deep mental and physical relaxation that you allow yourself to enter, you remain completely in control at all times and aware of your environment the whole time. The best way to describe it is to compare it to the drowsy state just before you fall asleep. In this relaxed state of being you are very open to any suggestions made to you.

Life changing results can be achieved and the source that brings about this change is within your unconscious mind, that part of you that acts as your friend, guide, mentor, advisor and memory bank.. However, sometimes your unconscious has a different agenda to your conscious mind and this is where Hypnotherapy is used to regain unity and harmony and release any problems or unwanted habits embedded in your unconscious mind.

Hypnotherapy is a very safe soothing painless way of dealing with your problems, it's like having your mind massaged.

After one session with me you will be able to cope better with life and its many stresses. You will feel more confident, happier, more positive, feel more successful and you will feel generally so much more relaxed and calm and I promise that I won't have you running around on the floor barking like a dog unless, of course, you want me to!

What can I expect from my sessions?
Your sessions will take place in a comfortable, warm and relaxing environment. We will begin our first meeting with a full consultation of your case history where you can talk openly and confidentially about your issues and how they affect your life, having discussed these in depth we will then start work on changing your life through hypnotherapy.

How will I feel?
You will feel relaxed ,lethargic and perhaps a little light headed but aware and in control at all times. Under hypnosis you will still be aware of your surroundings and your conscious mind will still be active. You will not be asleep but you will find yourself in a very pleasant trance like state of complete mental and physical relaxation floating in a mist of drowsiness. After your session you will feel relaxed, less stressed, regenerated ,more positive and very confident.

Who can be hypnotised?
Everyone who wants to be hypnotised can be hypnotised although the depth of trance depends on each individual.

How long can I expect each session to last?
Your first session will last one and a half hours and the following ones will be approximately one hour. The frequency of your appointments will depend on your availability and your needs. Clients often choose to see me on a weekly basis.

How many sessions will I need?
This depends entirely on the issues involved, under normal circumstances I recommend 3-4 sessions, however some clients feel it may be beneficial to opt for more sessions after this.
To stop smoking will require only one session.
To lose weight is usually 5-6 sessions

Is it like stage hypnosis?
Not at all, stage hypnosis is purely for entertainment purposes, the "look into my eyes, not around the eyes you're under" approach does not apply to hypnotherapy!

Will hypnosis work for me?
Yes, if you want it to ,we will develop a relationship together and like all relationships I do stress that it requires one hundred percent commitment and motivation from you as well as me for it to succeed fully.

Will hypnotherapy stop me smoking?
Yes, but only if you want it to and only if you really wish to stop you have to be certain that you want to stop smoking I have to have your full commitment .

Will I gain weight after I've stopping smoking?
No, under hypnosis I will put suggestions to your unconscious mind that you will not substitute nicotine for food cravings, the satisfaction that you believed you got from smoking will be transferred to something better, more positive or more pleasant e.g. Exercise ,relaxation or how you will spend the money you save.

How will hypnotherapy help me to lose weight?
Under hypnosis I can reprogram your daily eating routine through your unconscious mind. I can pinpoint the times that you eat most e.g. late at night, boredom etc. and divert your conscious mind to think of other activities and help you to focus more on the reasons that you want to lose weight e.g. to look better, be happier, feel healthier etc. I will ensure through hypnosis that eating will become less important, and that you will eat in smaller quantities and that the urge to become slimmer, healthier and more attractive will take priority in your life. You will find that, without questioning it, you will be automatically eating less and more healthily.
