What is hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a form of therapy that induces a state of deep relaxation and heightened awareness in order to resolve psychological or behavioural issues. Guided imagery and suggestion are some of the techniques used whilst in this state. In this state the unconscious mind becomes open to changing thoughts, beliefs, and behaviours. Hypnotherapy allows the mind to process unwanted emotional arousal, trauma, and self limiting beliefs.
What to expect:
During your hypnotherapy sessions, you can expect to:
- Be listened to and talk about why you are seeking help, formulate your goals, and focus on solutions and desired outcomes,
- Undergo an induction into hypnosis, you will be guided into a state that is relaxing, and calming where your subconscious mind becomes open to change.
- In this state you will remain aware and in control, but also be deeply relaxed and comfortable.
- You will become open to positive suggestions that help you move towards your goals and make the changes you are seeking. These learnings are embedded at a deep level and may be related to habits, behaviours, emotions, or patterns of thought.
- At the end of the session you will be guided back out of hypnosis, where you will feel relaxed, refreshed, positive, alert and fully awake.
What is Psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is a form of treatment, often referred to as the talking cure. It helps to address a wide range of presenting issues. There are many forms of therapy available. The ultimate goal that all forms of therapy have in common is that they aim to help people overcome what is causing them pain, be it emotional, behavioural, or psychological. This leads to positive change, improvement in mental health, and well-being overall.
What to expect from SFBT:
Solution focused brief therapy supports the individual to identify their inner strengths and resources to develop solutions to problems. It avoids dwelling on the problem itself, and on the past. It focuses on the present and what the future will look like once the problem no longer exists.
During a typical SFBT session you will be encouraged to talk about your goals for the future, where you’re at now, and what needs to change to move you forward. You will be supported to recognise your existing strengths and resources, and formulate your own plan to achieve goals.
SFBT is usually quite brief, some clients reach their desired outcome in just a few sessions, but this depends on the needs of the individual.
SFBT is an empowering form of therapy that is often enjoyable and positive. It puts the client at the forefront and is person-centred.
What is Hypnosis like?
People often report feeling they are in a state of deep relaxation, or that they feel on the edge of being asleep and awake. Some report feeling physical sensations like tingling, or heaviness in the body. Some may feel they’re weightless, almost as if they are floating on air. Others may feel more alert and focused during the state. You are free to move about and make yourself more comfortable at any time, you are aware of what is happening around you, and have complete control.
