Solution Focused Hypnotherapy

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy focuses on the present and the future. You don’t need to revisit the past or relive difficult memories.

We work collaboratively to reduce anxiety and promote a greater sense of calm and clarity. I guide you through the process, but meaningful change happens because you choose to take the steps forward. Your willingness to change is key.

What to Expect

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other. I’ll gather information, begin shaping a treatment plan and explain how the brain works in relation to what you’re experiencing.

Understanding why you feel the way you do – and how we can address it – often brings a sense of relief and a fresh perspective. We’ll also discuss how many sessions may be helpful and the level of commitment needed to support lasting change.

Between sessions, you’ll be encouraged to listen to a relaxation recording to reinforce the work and support progress.

Subsequent sessions

Sessions are 50 mins and are in two parts. First part, the talking therapy (psychotherapy) here we reflect on the positives of your week, your goals and how we get you there. The second part is a period of trance (hypnosis) clients say this is a ‘relaxing and enjoyable experience’. I lead you into relaxation using positive images, indirect suggestion and metaphors. This stage works importantly with your subconscious mind and consolidates your goals we spoke about in the session.

These sessions are relaxing, uplifting and a lot of the time fun. Clients say they look forward to these sessions.

Hypnotherapy is Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy combined…

Hypnosis is a natural state actually. Can you reflect on a time where you drove or walked somewhere and didn’t really think about it? Or something similar like making a brew, watching TV, reading a book and your thoughts just drift off somewhere else nicely? I feel it is like a ‘mind massage’. This is hypnotic – trance and you can understand things while this is happening and of course you can bring yourself out of it should you want to do that. Clients enjoy this soothing part of the session the most.

Psychotherapy is a talking therapy and aims to reduce anxieties. There are many disciplines. Mine is a solution focused approach so we do not focus on the past but where you are now and your preferable future. I help you navigate and steer your way there.
