Anxiety & Stress

In today’s society it is a very common problem to suffer from anxiety or stress. However, when your anxiety and stress levels reach a level were you can’t see the light from the trees life can become strained and the panic sets in making you feel lost, on edge and scared.

Other symptoms include:

Dizziness and headaches
Reduced attention span
Difficulty sleeping
Heart palpitations
Stomach upset
Paranoia
Sweating
Difficulty breathing
Loss of sex drive
Loss of appetite

Anxiety is caused by negative thinking. We can negatively forecast the past and future causing us to lose control of our lives. Hypnotherapy and Solution Focussed Brief Therapy can help you look at the world in a more positive light enabling you to resolve any anxieties or fears created from past experiences and increased stress levels. This will encourage you to feel light, happy and energetic and most of all in control.

Depression

Depression is a very common psychological disorder in today’s society and can strike at anytime. Research suggests that one in six of us will suffer from depression at sometime in our lives. When we are depressed we may have a feeling of sadness that can last a long time which can result in a loss of motivation, a feeling of worthlessness and wanting to hide. It can cause disruption in our sleep pattern, loss of appetite and a general lack of interest in life.

Other symptoms include:

Tiredness
Lack of energy
Irritability
Difficulty concentrating and making decisions
Thoughts of death or suicide
Persistent physical symptoms, such as headaches and digestive disorder

Hypnotherapy can help with turning this negative cycle around by encouraging you to concentrate on gaining control of your thought process and by setting goals that will lead to greater enjoyment of life. It has a dramatically lower rate of relapse than with anti-depressants alone and is now considered the most effective treatment for depression.

Fear And Phobias

There are all sorts of fears and phobias including spiders, heights, dentists, hospitals, becoming ill, going outside, feeling trapped and injections.

We can have a fear or phobia of anything which can hold us back from really enjoying our lives. They are generally caused by an association of a traumatic or upsetting event in early life.

Your sub-conscious has decided that the best way to keep you safe is to cause you to panic and stop you from doing something that might be linked to a previous upsetting event – generally it associates it to an object.

Hypnotherapy can help you overcome this by taking the emotion out of the past experience enabling you disassociate it from the fear or phobia. It is a quick and effective tool that can only take 4/5 sessions.

Fertility Issues

Research has shown that hypnotherapy can increase the likelihood of conception either naturally or in conjunction with medical help. Couples experiencing fertility difficulties often feel the effects of increased stress which can make it more difficult to conceive.

Stress hormones affect the hypothalamus, pituitary glands and reproductive organs. Hypnotherapy can help couples reduce stress by encouraging relaxation and removing negative emotions.

Insomnia

Approximately one in four people will suffer form insomnia at some point in their life. Insomnia is when you have difficulty getting to sleep or staying asleep long enough to feel refreshed the next morning. It can lead to the feeling of irritability, tiredness and the inability to concentrate.

The most common cause of insomnia is anxiety or a change of circumstance in your life. Hypnotherapy can help reduce anxiety and encourage you to cope with life in a more positive and relaxing way, making insomnia a thing of the past.

Pregnancy & Childbirth

Hypnotherapy can be a very helpful tool during pregnancy and childbirth. It can help with general anxiety about the birth and also relaxation – leading to a more stress free pregnancy, which can reduce the chances of post natal depression.

Through hypnotherapy you can learn the art of visualisation and relaxation which can make your childbirth a much more pleasant and enjoyable experience.

Self Confidence and Low Self Esteem


Lack of self confidence can be related to underlying stress, anxieties or depression. Many of us wish we could feel more confident to enable us to get to where we want to be in life. Lack of self-confidence is due to negatively forecasting the past or the future which leads to unwanted patterns of behaviour.

With the use of solution focussed hypnotherapy we are able to change your way of thinking so your sub-conscious naturally becomes more positive and motivated leading to greater confidence, optimism and belief.

This form of therapy is highly successful when related to exam nerves, public speaking, interviews and exams.

Sport Performance

There is a long history of hypnosis in sport proving how athlete’s performance is increased dramatically in many areas including style correction, speed and strength enhancement as well as overall confidence and motivation.

Many champions have used hypnosis including Mike Beverley, Former England Cricket Champion, Glenn Cately and Steve Collins, former World Champions in the Super Middleweight division and Tiger Woods, American professional golfer.

However, you don’t have to be a champion to use hypnotherapy; Sport is a passion in many people’s lives and you may simply want to be the best that you can be in your category whether running, swimming, playing tennis, golf, cricket, netball, football, rugby, the list goes on.

Hypnotherapy can help you focus on your goals, overcome mental blocks and barriers, reinforce self-belief and enhance positive thinking. We all know the greatest champions and athletes also tend to be the ones who have learnt to control their mind and think successfully, they have mastered the psychology of their individual sport.

Weight Loss

To constantly be battling to lose weight can be a huge strain on your daily life especially if every diet you have tried is not working. How many times have you lost weight only to put it back on?

The most common cause of being overweight is an individual’s attitude towards food which has been developed during childhood and through life. Hypnotherapy can help you change this attitude which will allow you to lose weight for the long term.

Through hypnosis we can encourage you to develop a healthier attitude towards food and once the sub-conscious understands the purpose of food you will find that losing weight and keeping it off will become much easier.
