What is solution focused hypnotherapy?

Solution focused hypnotherapy is a practical modern therapy, that uses effective interventions. The focus is on the present and future and not on the past, allowing you to come up with solutions which can be worked towards. Solution focused therapy looks at what you want to achieve rather than on the past. The type of psychotherapy I practice does not involve you analysing painful memories, rather we acknowledge any painful events that have happened, then help you to move from where you are to where you want to be.

It is important to understand that you have to apply some effort to bring about change, hypnotherapy is not something that is done to you.

What happens during a hypnotherapy session?​

During your initial consultation we will identify what you want to achieve by coming to therapy. We will then discuss how the mind works, focusing on the intellectual and primitive mind and the role they play in the symptoms you are experiencing. You will then be given a download to listen to each night before you go to sleep which will help start the process off. Provided you are willing to make changes, hypnotherapy can help you get to where you want to be.  In subsequent sessions we will talk about the progress you have made, looking at the positives and focusing on solutions. I will then guide you into a relaxed state of hypnosis, which is simply a state of focused attention and ordinary in many ways. We go into trance naturally many times in a day, whilst we are driving, watching television, exercising etc.
