What is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy?
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can make a positive difference to the way we react by changing old patterns of behaviour to new more positive ones, enabling us to cope so much better with life’s challenges. The therapy focuses on the client’s strengths and resources enabling them to look forward to a more positive future where they are more in control of their thoughts, feelings and actions.

Hypnotherapy is different from other therapies in that it is drug free, there is no physical manipulation and the conscious mind, with its anxious or analytical thoughts, is bypassed. It is the conscious mind which can often hinder the success of other forms of psychological work such as counselling or psychotherapy. With Solution Focused Hypnotherapy the client and therapist work together to focus on the changes that the client wants to make in their life. Beneficial results are often achieved faster than with other therapies because we do not focus on the problems, we focus on the goals that the client wants to achieve.

The client will be given an overview of the workings of the mind, helping them to understand how sometimes we can feel like areas of our life are out of our control.

Using the tool of hypnosis the therapist guides the client into a relaxed state enabling direct access to their subconscious mind. This is where our instinctive behaviour patterns and natural reactions are formed. Using positive suggestion and imagery the therapist is able to focus on the behaviours that the client wishes to change.

What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is the bringing together of the conscious and subconscious minds in a trance state. It is a safe, powerful technique creating a deeply relaxed state of the body, mind and emotions. It is also a perfectly natural state that we are often in during our everyday lives i.e whilst reading a book, watching television, or doing repeated tasks.

The therapist guides you into a relaxed trance state by the sound of their voice. It is not sleep.

Is it safe?
No-one can be hypnotised against their will and even when in trance people can still reject any of the suggestions given if they are not appropriate.

Is all Hypnotherapy the same?
There are different types of therapy for different problems:

Suggestion Therapy: The subconscious mind accepts suggestions during therapy to promote and reinforce positive messages. Used for stopping smoking, exam nerves, nail biting and similar problems.

Solution Focused Therapy: Effective for treatment of fears, phobias, weight loss, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and many more. It helps to desensitise you from emotions of past or future events and to achieve goals.
