Hypnotherapy
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy happens where you are guided into a deeply relaxed state.
This is completely natural, similar to what you may experience during or after a guided meditation or, when you are deeply engrossed in a movie.
What Happens in a Session?
During a session we tap into your own inner wisdom to help facilitate healing, recovery and breakthroughs.
The skill of the hypnotherapist is in helping you find YOUR own answers.
You are always in control of yourself and nothing will happen against your will.
The hypnotherapist will work within the parameters of your belief system and be respectful of that.
It is NOT:
Mind control or trickery.
After an initial chat where we discuss the issues you are facing, we will only proceed if you are completely happy. We would identify clear goals that you wish to achieve and work towards.
