First 20 minutes

FREE

Arrival and chance to settle. Complete a few contact details on a sheet that I will give you. I will ask you to turn off your mobile phone or put it on silent without vibrate, and I will do the same so we will not be disturbed.

You will then be offered a detailed free initial consultation in which you are able to talk things over in complete confidence and discuss your problem(s). This is often therapeutic in itself.   The more details you give me, the more I will be able to help. Before we begin, I will discuss hypnosis with you, so that you are feeling totally relaxed and you are confident with what is about to happen.

Next 15 - 20 minutes

Depending on the outcome of the consultation you will then be given a number of exercises to do which will begin to deal with the immediate challenge. This is usually done using the most up to date NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) strategies. Through this phase of the treatment you are given a chance to really take control of your challenge and make some visible changes quickly.

Final   Phase

I'll then ask you to make yourself comfortable, put on some relaxing music and get you to focus on my voice, to lead you gently into hypnosis.

In the hypnotic state you will feel very relaxed and will hear everything I say. It encourages you to stop moving, but occasionally involuntary movement will occur, such as the fluttering of an eyelid or slight movement in the fingers as the muscles relax and the pulse and breathing rates become slower.

Under hypnosis you become open to suggestions, and then the desired beneficial suggestions are given to you as well as visualisation. This will help your unconscious mind to change any negative perceptions to positive ones. Your unconscious mind will start working towards a goal gradually changing your behaviour. Any suggestions that are inappropriate to you will be rejected.

On awakening you will feel refreshed and just like you do after a really restful sleep.

Last few minutes

When it is over I will ask you about your experiences of the session and discuss a follow-up appointment.   Subsequent sessions last for approx 1 hour.
