What is Hypnotherapy?

Counselling Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that combines traditional counselling techniques with hypnosis. It aims to address both conscious and unconscious (subconscious) aspects/habits of a person's mental and emotional well-being.

 

Key elements of Counselling Hypnotherapy include:

  • Traditional Counselling: This involves techniques like active listening, empathy, tools, resources and providing support.
  • Hypnosis: This involves inducing a state of deep relaxation and focus, allowing for exploration of the unconscious mind through the use of personalized story-telling based on notes taken from the clients session(s).
  • Integration: The two approaches are integrated to provide a comprehensive and effective therapeutic experience to help the client actualize self-awareness & self-trust.

Benefits of Counselling Hypnotherapy:

Addresses both conscious and unconscious (subconscious) issues: This can lead to a more complete understanding and resolution of their "problems" & fears.

  • Promotes deep relaxation: Hypnosis can help reduce stress and anxiety.
  • Enhances self-awareness: Exploring the unconscious mind can lead to greater self-understanding & self-awareness.
  • Facilitates positive change: Hypnosis can help individuals develop new beliefs, behaviours, and coping mechanisms.
