All About Solution Focused Hypnotherapy

This is the very first step you take towards your therapy journey to make positive changes in your life...
The initial consultation would take from 45 mins up to an hour.  This is the only time where you talk about the issue or things you would like to improve. We would fill out some forms together and get to know about you in much more detail.  I would also talk about our brain why we feel the symptoms we feel and how I can help you.  At the end of the initial consultation; I would send you an MP3 recording which would help in our work alongside sessions.

Trance / Hypnosis is a natural state of mind, its like when we are day dreaming. We all go in and out of trance many time in a day perhaps when we are driving on a regular route, or when we are watching TV or when we are at the gym.  Its a natural and self-induced state of mind where you have control over your thoughts at all times.  During trance / hypnosis; I would use technique of repetition, suggestion and also use metaphors to encourage your subconscious mind to think and act in a positive way. 

The number of sessions required varies from person to person.

Generally, the number of sessions required for solution focused hypnotherapy is between 8 - 12 after the initial consultation and sometimes more.  Exceptions to this  are sessions for fears & phobias and smoking/ vaping cessation.

Stop smoking / vaping requires only 1 longer session lasting  from 90 minutes up to 2 hours.

Sessions required for Fears & Phobia are determined and agreed after the initial consultation.

  Trance is a natural relaxing state of mind.  It is self induced and your mind attracts towards positive suggestions & solutions.
  Trance is very a safe state of mind contrary to what you see on TV. It is not mind-control by the therapist. You are in control of your mind and you decide what information or suggestions are helpful to you and you would not accept or do anything against your will.
  The sessions follows a specific structure which comprises different aspects of Solution Focused Brief Therapy, we do not talk about the past in any of our sessions apart from the initial consultation where we get to know you more and we want to know what brings you to the therapy.
