Suggestion therapy

Also known as 'clinical hypnosis', this type of therapy involves the use of psychology, visualisation, positive suggestions, hypnosis and relaxation for the treatment of minor problems or the achievement of short-term goals.

If you want to give up smoking, this therapy gives you the motivation and confidence you need to quit, by actually replacing the desire to smoke with feelings of success and pleasure.

If you want to lose weight suggestion therapy is perfect for helping you stick to your diet and feel great about yourself.

Suggestion therapy is also used to control pain, to combat exam nerves, overcome fear of flying, to stop nail biting, to aid relaxation and for confidence boosting.

This therapy requires 1 or 2 sessions with a possible booster session at a later date.

Pure Hypnoanalysis (Analytical Therapy)

Pure Hypnoanalysis is a liberating and life changing therapy.

Some of the experiences that we have in our formative years can leave us with bottled up emotions that remain hidden away deep in our sub-conscious. These buried emotions cause conflict in our psyche and manifest as unwanted symptoms (see examples below).

During Pure Hypnoanalysis your sub-conscious is able to release these buried emotions and along with them, the need to create the unwanted symptoms.

This therapy enhances the 'natural human process' to resolve emotional trauma and conflict.

The process takes approximately 8 weekly sessions of 50 minutes.

Examples of symptoms treated by Pure Hypnoanalysis:

Panic attacks
Anxiety
Depression
Migraines
Phobias
IBS (irritable bowl syndrome)
Social phobia (blushing, feeling sick, having palpitations, sweating, stuttering etc in social situations)
Emetaphobia (Fear of being sick)
Obesity and Eating disorders
Sexual problems
Lack of confidence and self esteem
Stuttering and Stammering
Chronic fatigue
Chronic pain
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Bedwetting
Shy bladder
Nightmares
Self-harm

These are just some of the problems that I deal with on a more regular basis. If your issue is not included, it doesn't mean that I can't help. Follow this link to the IAPH website to see the list of symptoms that have been successfully treated by IAPH therapists.

The "Blowaway" Technique for Children

This is a single session therapy that has been designed especially for children, to help with childhood problems such as bedwetting, phobias, exam worries, low self esteem, eating disorders, behavioural problems and more.

Under the relaxing state of hypnosis, the child in encouraged to "blow away" negative feelings and 'bottled up' emotions, helping them to resolve anxieties and along with them any associated symptoms. At the end of the session positive hypnotic suggestions are used to leave the child feeling confident and in control of themselves.

This therapy is suitable for children aged 7 to 17. The child must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who will be encouraged to participate in the session.
