What is Hypnotherapy?

Clinical Hypnotherapy

What is Hypnosis?

It may be surprising to many to learn that we experience trance states often during the course of our lives. Even passing into ordinary sleep involves a kind of trance state. The experience of hypnosis is similar: neither asleep nor awake and a little like daydreaming, with a pleasant feeling of deep relaxation behind it all. Hypnosis is a different state of consciousness which you can naturally enter so that, for therapeutic purposes (hypnotherapy), beneficial corrections may be given directly to your unconscious mind.

In this way, hypnosis is an effective way of making contact with our inner (unconscious) self, which is both a reservoir of unrecognised potential and knowledge as well as being the unwitting source of many of our problems.

Realistically no-one can be hypnotised against their will and even when hypnotised, a person can still reject any suggestion. Thus hypnotherapy is a state of purposeful co-operation.

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is using the state of hypnosis to treat a variety of medical and psychological problems. It is estimated that 85% of people will respond at some level to clinical hypnotherapy. It may even succeed where other more conventional methods of treatment have not produced the desired result. When carried out by a trained and qualified hypnotherapist the benefits can be long lasting and often permanent. It is natural and safe, with no harmful side effects.

Hypnotherapy makes use of the bicameral nature of the functioning brain and the conscious / unconscious processes therein. At its simplest level the unconscious mind becomes (through our life experience) the repository of our conditioned experience, while the conscious mind is the waking mind dealing with appraisal and decision making. In hypnotherapy the critical faculties of the conscious mind are sidestepped (through the hypnotic condition) and new ideas and 'suggestions' placed directly into the uncritical unconscious to effect beneficial changes when back in the waking state.

Clinical Applications of Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is medically accepted to benefit the following and more: unwanted habits - smoking, nail biting, bed wetting, weight control / healthy eating, improve work / study / sporting performance, boost self-confidence and achieving potential, phobias, compulsions, emotional problems, sleep problems, inhibitions, worries, reduce stress, tension and blood pressure, stomach problems, IBS, gynaecological problems - PMT, psychogenic infertility, obstetrics (painless childbirth), skin problems, pain control, minor surgery, dentistry, arthritic pains, aches and pains, some sexual problems...

Put simply, where your problem is due to habitual conditioning (habit formation), accumulated stress or unresolved events in your past then hypnotherapy can be used to access and reprogramme these complexes which are being sustained and remain active at the unconscious level.

What to Expect in the Session

Your therapist will ask about your presenting problem and together you will decide on the target outcome for your treatment. The length of treatment will be discussed (whether one session or several) and the fee will be agreed. The therapist will take a 'case history' of the circumstances and history of the particular problem you need help with to help with the formulation of an efficient treatment strategy or hypnotic script.

The therapist will explain the process of hypnosis and how it is used in hypnotherapy to help you make changes to your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. There may be some preliminary testing and practice before starting the full treatment (either immediately or in a subsequent session).

TESTIMONIALS

Chloe.

"I had never tried any form of hypnotherapy, before @ Oneness held a group session at my workplace. I found the comforting way Peter explained and delivered the session introduced me to this wonderful relaxing way of easing my anxiety. Following the session, I felt more confident and clearer in how I can manage my workload and deal with the growing pressure of the business needs."

Victoria.

"I met Peter by chance and was so glad I did. I always felt I was a confident and outgoing person until I begin having panic attacks and felt increasingly stressed, the closer I came to my wedding. Peter talked through the benefits of hypnotherapy, and I decided to give it a go, worried my "Big Day" would be ruined. I noticed an instant reduction in the feeling of stress and the number and intensity of the attacks reduced. The final session was the day before my wedding, I can’t thank Peter enough, being able to fully enjoy this special day with my beautiful wife."

Claire

”Therapy has really helped me overcome some past trauma I had been keeping under a lid for a long time. Over a period of time, I was able to see a dramatic change in the way I behaved and dealt with problematic situations. Through the use of specialist techniques, I was able to find a new me. Now, I feel happier and more confident in my life, and feel like I can walk with my head held high.”

Alex

Ben

"After a lot of hesitation, I finally contacted @ Oneness to help me with my phobia. This was a wonderful experience for me. I felt I understood myself better and I was able to handle the situations I found difficult with more confidence because now I understand where my fear comes from."

Stephen

”Pete had such an impact on my life, at a very difficult and low point he provided such great support which is continuing to help me become the best I can be. Pete is fantastic at what he does, professional, diligent, positive and caring I could not recommend him highly enough!”

Louise

”The two sessions I had with Peter were really helpful, I felt great benefits after just the first one. I had insomnia for months brought on by stress and not being able to switch off. This was causing low mood and I felt depressed. I now feel back to normal. Even if you’re sceptical, just try it and see the amazing results. You won’t be disappointed.”
