Basically a Hypno-psychotherapist is a registered hypno-psychotherapist who employs hypnosis alongside other forms of psychotherapy.
In addition to treating disorders of mood, thought or feeling, Hypno-Psychotherapy may help with a wide range of psychological problems from habit disorders such as smoking, over-eating and sleeplessness, to social difficulties such as lack of confidence, exam/driving test nerves, phobias and panic attacks.
It is also widely used for enhancing sporting performance, creativity, memory and concentration.
I use a wide range of techniques such as:
•Hypnosis
•NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Program)
•Cognitive methods
•Behavioral approach
As with the majority of complementary therapies at the initial consultation I will take a complete medical and psychological history.
Occasionally the problem can be dealt with in this single session (for instance where the patient wishes to quit smoking) or if not I will be able to give you a fairly accurate idea of how long a course of treatment will be required.
Goals will be constantly re-assessed and progress monitored. Of course, there is no guarantee of success – in fact beware of ANY therapist ‘promising a cure’, but where the patient is committed to their goal there is every chance for a positive and encouraging outcome.
