CLINICAL HYPNOTHERAPY IN LONDON & ONLINE

Have you been searching for hypnotherapy near me and wondering how to choose the best hypnotherapist London? What I suggest is speaking with some people who’ve experienced hypnosis in London. It’s also important to consider your needs. Hypnosis near me will bring up lots of results. Some therapists focus on stop smoking hypnotherapy and are the best in London at that. Others like myself are more experienced in complex therapy such as trauma/PTSD, anxiety, depression and confidence.

For many people, hypnosis is a very personal thing. So they prefer to meet face to face instead of online. Because I run hypnotherapy London sessions from two locations it’s convenient for many of my clients. But sometimes things in life get in the way, and time just disappears. So it’s possible to mix and match between online and in person. Whatever way works best for you, is what works best for me.

The speed and effectiveness really does change from person to person. It’s not unusual for some people to feel no benefit at all, but in my experience, that’s very rare. Even the best hypnotherapists in London UK accept this, it’s the same for any therapy. What I love about solution-focused hypnotherapy is that we’re not digging into your past. It’s about working through a vision of what the future you looks like.

How quickly you’ll see the benefits from my London hypnotherapy sessions? Some people leave the first session with a new outlook on life. For others, especially with depression or deep-rooted anxiety that can take a bit longer.

There are a number of different approaches to hypnotherapy and in London. I practice what’s known as Solutions Focused Hypnotherapy. It’s a modern form of talking therapy created by David Newton. He’s one of the most highly regarded hypnotherapists in the world. His approach came at a time where traditional therapy practices were under scrutiny. Due to the high volume of clients (40/50 hypnotherapy sessions per week!) he quickly realised that enjoyable therapeutic sessions have a higher likelihood of success. His research also confirmed that self discovery is more impactful than being told what to change.

This is at the very heart of what I practice.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy has been used successfully for a variety of conditions including:

• Phobias & fears
• Anxiety
• Sleep disorders
• Depression
• Stress
• PTSD/Trauma
• Grief & Loss

Hypnosis works for these conditions because when in a trance state we feel more relaxed. It also focuses our attention. Hypnosis is a state of mind that temporarily suspends the part of the brain that holds onto patterns of behaviour that it feels are working. So you can experience the positive version of yourself which we’d previously explored in the first part of your session.

Hypnosis is also used for overcoming habits such as smoking or overeating.

You may be wondering if hypnotherapy is expensive. As with any therapy, the cost is subjective. However some therapists often cite a minimum number of sessions. My approach to Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is that you are in control of how many sessions feel right. We’ll continue until you feel the positive change has become more established. This is different for trauma as I practice the Muss Rewind Technique which is conducted over a single session (plus one follow up session).

What I offer in London and online via Zoom is called Solutions Focused Hypnotherapy. It has a different approach to treating psychological issues than most forms of hypnotherapy London. Why? Because the key principle is to focus on setting future goals. This differs from other forms that bringing up trauma or problems from the past. For some people, revisiting those memories and experiences is just too painful. This results in them shutting down and becoming unresponsive to positive suggestions. Others simply are not aware of the reasons why they feel like they do. But if they’ve been searching for who is the best hypnotherapist London, then they’re likely to be seeking positive change.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is popular in London because it’s a structured and gentle form of hypnosis. The past is considered a distraction. Instead, the hypnotherapist co-creates goals, building a pathway to the client’s solution.

Besides developing goals, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a very open method of hypnosis. In the sessions, we’ll discuss how the brain works, how we experience emotions, how they can affect us and our habits. As well as what can be done to change them. We’ll also cover what to expect from a hypnotic trance. A trance is actually a very normal, natural state and something that we may already experience throughout our day.

If you’re looking at choosing a London hypnotherapist I suggest getting in touch and talking through what you’d like to achieve. You can contact me on 07966 464 005

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH) combines psychotherapy with hypnosis. It’s a talking therapy. We start by understand the goal (solution) as opposed to digging into the past. After talking things through the client is put into a very natural, relaxing state (trance) using guided relaxation. From here positive change can be comfortably launched and then reinforced.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH) focuses on the present and the future, not the past. It’s about helping people move forward with their lives and not dwelling on the past. SFH follows a set structure and starts with asking the client to consider their preferred future. This gives the client a goal to focus on. The therapist also provides an explanation of how the brain works. This is followed by hypnosis.
