Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy Services For Stop Smoking Programmes and Weight Control Programmes information and price details, please click here. Psychotherapy can enable you to express and resolve difficult life problems and feelings. Together we will endeavour to co-create a safe meaningful space to talk through your problems and work towards a fuller understand of your personal experience. Through our relationship and with reference to memories, dreams and feelings, your immediate and long-standing issues, concerns and relationships can be explored. Through understanding your present-moment expectations, perceptions, and restrictive patterns of behaviour it can become apparent how the past informs the present. As the therapeutic relationship develops, we will move towards facilitating new understanding and self awareness, growth and the resolution of unresolved issues. Psychotherapy can offer help with a range of emotional problems including those relating to critical life events - bereavement, anxiety, depression, marital breakdown, redundancy, abuse, eating disorders, gender, race and sexual issues.If you are interested in Psychotherapy, you can arrange an initial assessment session. Together we can then discuss your concerns and needs and why you have made contact. We can then decide if it feels right to continue and think about how frequently and for how long your sessions might take place. As part of the toolkit of skills I can offer you as a client, I think the most important are Hypnotherapy and Emotional Freedom Techniques (or EFT - a meridian psychotherapy technique). Many people believe they are aware of what Hypnotherapy entails, but I have listed a few commonly asked questions here: What is Hypnosis? A perfectly safe and natural state. There is nothing "magical" about it, there will be no swinging watches and no one will ask you to do anything unusual. Hypnotherapy is nothing like stage hypnosis. It is simply a very deep relaxed state, where your concentration is focussed inwardly as it is when you are "miles away" engrossed in a book, or daydreaming. It must also be noted that hypnosis is not a magical "cure," generally clients will be given follow up work to do to assist their own therapy. I do not wave magic wands to make you better, there needs to be input from you! Will I say things I don't want to? No you won't. Your mind will still be in control. You may choose to speak, or remain silent just as you always do. Will I know what is happening to me? Yes you will, in fact you will be in control all the time, not the therapist. At any time you will be able to open your eyes, speak, or get up and walk, as you wish. You will be fully aware of what is happening to you. What will happen? I will gently relax your mind so you can be mentally and physically peaceful. With the help of your subconscious, we will examine the parts of your mind that are causing you problems and help you to discover more appropriate solutions. I will teach you various techniques which you will need to practise. I might even make you a tape which you can listen to daily. What if you can't get me back? This is an unfounded fear, remember you are still fully conscious. Even if I were to walk out of the room (which I wouldn't) you would either drift off into a sleep, or you would jump up and say "hey, where are you going?" Are there some people who can't be hypnotised? It is very rare if you can't enter the trance state. Have you ever been talking to someone and become aware that you have missed part of the conversation because you were "miles away?" Have you, when driving, reached your destination and can't remember driving the last few miles? Have you been so involved in a book that you haven't realised it has got dark, or not heard someone calling you? At such times you were in a trance state, in fact you were in self-hypnosis. How many visits will I need? If you wish to stop smoking, lose weight, or have exam nerves, usually two to three sessions. Deeper seated problems may need six to ten sessions.
