Clinical hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is not new – in one form or another it has been around since Greek, Roman, and Egyptian days. In the 1800's it gained popularity amongst surgeons who at that time had no anaesthesia at their disposal.
In the 1950's both the British and American Medical Associations endorsed its use for their members – but it never caught on in the medical profession; possibly because it was considered more time consuming to utilise than drugs and anaesthesia. Essentially it is a means by which damaging patterns of behaviour and/or physical issues can be altered, re-framed, transformed, or resolved. And it is extremely effective!
Keep in mind that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. When in a hypnotic trance state (similar to being deeply asleep – but conscious) you are both alert and in control of how you respond. Depending on the myths you may have heard about hypnosis you may not even think you are in a hypnotic state at all. I can say that it is absolutely nothing like the stage hypnosis acts you might have seen, or been told about!
So what – actually – is it?
It is generally referred to as an altered state of consciousness – meaning that it differs from our 'ordinary' waking state. As I said earlier it is a self induced state where – guided by the therapist, you allow yourself to enter into a deeply relaxed state (both physically and mentally) that is not dissimilar to deep sleep – except that you are fully conscious and aware of what is happening. In fact nothing happens at all unless you choose to let it happen.
ssues such as:
- weight management
- smoking
- management of substance abuse / addictive behaviour
- anxiety & depression
- stress management
- fears & phobias
- low self esteem and a lack of self confidence
- deep seated / long standing emotional trauma
- pain management & management of physical illness
- and much more .................
Please don't hesitate - consider the alternative - more of the same. Would it not be better to act now; to take charge of your life? Contacting me for an appointment, or further information, is the first step. Reach out for that truly creative solution to your problem.

I am an experienced health care professional who started out as a practicing nurse and yoga teacher in the 70's. I understand what it is like to be touched by suffering.
