Hypnotherapy - clinical /therapy  solution focus therapy or relationship coaching  is provided in an environment that is confidential and caring where I can assist people to discover changes that they want to make in their lives.

When negative things happen in your life, it seems that everything starts to go wrong. When you begin your day on a positive foot, the rest of the day is a positive one. Thoughts attract one to the other and gains power and momentum the more you think of them. What then manifests is the direct reflection of what you have been thinking and feeling so if we open ourselves to more positive options we empower ourselves. It's never what  happens to us its how we see or feel it that affects us.

And, in today's world many are faced with difficult challenges and issues. These are often dealt with by putting up barriers or patterns of behaviour, over eating under eating, procrastination – putting things off or not wanting to deal with certain things, emotional problems, anxiety, tenseness  or fear, abusive behaviour (to themselves or others), health problems, relationship difficulties, negative thinking, and low self-esteem, to name but a few.

Modern day living is far more demanding on our bodies that produce chemicals that may have a long term impact on our health. The everyday of mental and emotional distress and even some physical illness can be traced to underlying anxiety, tension and stress. The result often puts us out of our balance to whom you are or who you are meant to be. This imbalance is between our cognitive conscious beliefs (thinking) and our subconscious or unconscious mind.

The purpose and benefit of Hypnosis can work on both levels boosting a conscious willingness to challenge oneself and minimising conscious interference making you the master of your emotion rather than your emotion controlling you. The role of a hypnotist in a therapeutic setting is to help you establish communication pathway with your unconscious mind in order to overcome your inner obstacles and reach a state of your own ability to deal with issues.

 Hypnosis generally focuses on and amplifies people’s strength. Hypnosis begins with the premise that the client has valuable abilities that are present and hidden, abilities that can be uncovered and used in a deliberate way to overcome symptoms and problems. The conscious and unconscious thought patterns have a different set of functions but also share a considerable number of functions between them. The unconscious mind is not rigid or analytical.

All change takes place at the unconscious level we become aware of the change consciously when we are ready. Hypnosis is not sleep -people in Hypnosis trance  are more awake to themselves and are in full control of what you want to take in.

This is one way to access the hidden treasure-house of our minds is through deep relaxation of mind and body. Think of it yet another aspect is when someone says something and it captures your imagination to the point that what you are imagining how it feels subjectively real to you.

What does a Hypnotherapist do?

The purpose of Modern Hypnotherapists will simply assist you to become so deeply relaxed that, with a little guidance, you can begin to make the changes you want to make in your own way in a way that everything seems to ‘flow in a right way for you.’

Modern Clinical Hypnotherapy is a powerful form of Psychotherapy combining cognitive (thinking) therapeutic counselling techniques with subconscious healing/therapeutic techniques.

Clinical Hypnotherapy: can assist you to connect your conscious awareness to your sub-conscious beliefs and desires and thus enables you to begin to understand to find solutions between the two, resulting in reduced feelings of stress and anxiety and increased feelings of calmness and positive energy.  Clinical Hypnotherapy has been used widely and successfully for many years in Australia and overseas for the relief of a number of problems and conditions.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy: The benefits of Hypnotherapy is becoming well known in the community as being an effective way for giving up smoking and for weight management, Clinical Hypnotherapy is also powerful and is used in many areas of life in which people experience symptoms of pain, stress, anxiety and tension – some examples are listed below:

Gaining permanent, positive outcomes from Clinical Hypnotherapy can take anywhere from one or two sessions to many weeks of therapy depending upon the complexity of the problem
and the nature of the underlying subconscious beliefs that are causing or contributing to the problem.

The approach is a simple yet profound process which enables you to deal with your past, empower your present and create the future of your choice.  This approach can rapidly identify and release unresolved conflicts or factors beyond conscious awareness resulting in major improvement in health, motivation, self confidence, emotional stability, pain relief, creativity, performance levels and habit control.

The best approach is based on the clients needs and this is discussed during the consultation.   By  choosing the best process  that suits your needs and  by working together may involve  various approaches in  support, education, guidance, Clinical Hypnotherapy,  NLP, Psychotherapy Solution Focus or Coaching. 

Your presenting emotions can be painful at times,  to you so the purpose in discussing  the various types of therapy is to suit your individual needs  and more importantly to enhance the strengths you already have, rather than solely focusing on what is not working for you. For us to change we need to think differently to find the solution.

One of my favourite sayings is:
“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them”. Albert Einstein.

And quite often asking the right questions will assist you to think from another perspective enabling you find your own solution as Nancy Willard quoted in the Meaning of Life “Sometimes questions are more important than answers”. 

For most people we want  to find our solutions however for many no action is taken and , by not taking any action  it is in a way making a choice  but not an empowering  aspect for many . For many someone else asking clearer question enables one to make clearer distinctions. So they can make decisions. Even if it is  being clear on stating "I choose not to take any action at this stage" is making a choice of responding  - more information moving you forward.
