How Does It Work
First of all, it is totally acceptable and common to feel nervous opening up to someone. I have put together some information about the process and my approach to empower you to take action.
First Contact- Free Consultation
During our phone call or email exchange, we will discuss your symptoms and how you could benefit from hypnotherapy. You will then be free to decide to take it further.
1st Session (90 min)
Assessment & Treatment plan
This is the start of your journey, through our discussion we will work on establishing the patterns and triggers that you are experiencing.
This session is the time where you finally get the opportunity to release the load that is holding you back. We all experience challenges in our lives which lead us to believe that changes are out of our control and we cannot move forward. If you decide that you do not want to be struggling anymore, I will assist you in exploring what makes you feel, think and behave the way you do today.
My role is to help you understand what is happening without fear of being judged. Together, we will get the full, realistic picture of the situation so we can manage it. I will then be able to discuss a treatment plan with new coping skills and strategies so you can move forward and you can enjoy your life. My clients generally report feeling lifted and positive at the end of each session.
Although the most known use of Hypnosis is to achieve relaxation, it is actually very effective to train you to focus your attention and imagination. Hypnosis enables you to respond to suggestions to empower you to make real changes that have not been achieved through traditional speaking therapies.
My Approach
As a hypnotherapist, I have a wide range of interventions (treatment elements) to draw upon to create a tailored and flexible treatment plan for each of my clients.
There are evidence-based interventions that I have learned and been trained for while undertaking my studies in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy – and various ongoing training. We work together and your feedback allow me to adjust the session to maximise the benefit for you.
In the theory of human experience, we learn that we can get stuck and I guide you on how to get “unstuck”.
What is Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy?
“Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy is a blend of empirically tested CBT and clinical hypnosis. It is recognised by the British Medical Association, the American Medical Association and the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE). It has been proven as the most effective and safe alternative therapy, being able to help with a vast range of mental and behavioural problems in just a few hours of treatment.” If you want to know more please read through the Treatment section by clicking on the Menu Tab at the top.
Where do the sessions take place?
Mainly online through video calls (various platforms available: Zoom, Skype, VSee. )
Most of my clients are based nationwide and internationally so it makes it a very convenient practice.
How many sessions?
The first 30 min consultation is free.
The number of sessions will be discussed during the first session and can vary from 4 to 8 sessions on average, including a relapse prevention session at the end and a free 30 mn follow up call.
Free recordings provided for each hypno-treatment.
