FAQ’s

Everything you need to know, before you begin.
From what happens during a session to how hypnotherapy can support you, I’ve answered some of the questions you may have. Take a look below, and if there’s anything else you’d like to know, I am happy to have a chat.

  • CBT stands for Cognitive, Behavioral Therapy, in layman’s terms therapy for the way we think, feel and behave as they are all psychologically and physiologically connected. I use CBT as well as other approaches in my work with my clients.

  • Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach to help you explore unhelpful thought patterns, beliefs and behaviors. Every person experiences hypnosis in a different way but most people describe being in a relaxed state where the therapist guides you to focus your attention on your issue and use your imagination to explore positive emotions and rehearse behaviour change.

  • Hypnosis is completely safe and not a state of mind control. You will never be made to do anything that you don’t want to and every suggested idea for change is agreed and discussed with me during your assessment needs.

  • Hypnotherapy aims to encourage new positive ideas, coping skills and a positive attitude towards change. It can be used for many issues including anxiety, phobias, performance and pain management.

  • Yes, I provide a privacy policy and am governed and regulated by industry bodies. Your trust and confidence in me is paramount. Everything will be discussed and treated as confidential. You will feel safe, respected and able to open up in our session.

  • This does depend on you and your situation, normally the support I offer is short term. I usually suggest we start with 6 sessions.

  • To get started you can send me an email with any questions or to arrange a free chat.
