What is Solution focused hypnotherapy?

​Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a modern form of hypnotherapy that uses practical, modern and well researched strategies to help people make significant, positive changes in their lives in a relatively short period of time. It is based on current neuro-scientific research of how the brain works and has a wealth of evidence supporting its effectiveness.

This form of hypnotherapy focuses on the present and future rather than analysing problems of the past and going over painful past memories. We cannot change what has already happened but we can change our way of thinking about it, as well as the way we think about the present and the future.  I ask specifically designed questions to help you  to change unhelpful thinking patterns, to focus on the outcome that you want and the difference that will make to your life.  

As a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist I focus on what my clients want to achieve and together we work out the steps to achieve that change. 
​
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy uses the best research-based psychotherapy together with the power of hypnosis. Therefore, therapy sessions are a combination of hypnosis (or trance) and talking therapies and focus on identifying solutions and taking positive steps towards your preferred future - helping you to be how you want to be.  Provided you are willing to work together with me to make changes to the way you think and commit to the therapy process, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can be highly effective in relieving a wide variety of symptoms.

What is hypnosis and how is it used in solution focused hypnotherapy?


​​Hypnosis, or trance, is the process of guiding a person into a highly focused state of awareness so that we can talk to the subconscious mind. Research shows that we naturally go into trance on average every seven minutes - when we are walking, watching television, reading a book. Have you ever been so engrossed in a film or book that you didn’t notice somebody walking into the room? That is the naturally occurring state of trance.

The subconscious mind is felt to be far more powerful than the conscious mind, and it is the same part of the mind which harbours the anxieties, addictions and habits that we wish to change or remove. During this natural state of trance we are able to quieten the voice in our head that stems from the conscious part of our brain. In doing so we gain access to the subconscious mind, thus allowing the mind to focus on and become much more receptive to beneficial suggestions and changes.

In therapy sessions we harness the power of trance to dissolve unhelpful programming, break the negative states of anxiety and depression, and move us towards our goals. As a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, I will help you utilise this state to encourage positive change, allow you to achieve your full potential and achieve your goals whatever they may be.

This trance state is simply and easily created through the use of relaxation and visualisation techniques. During trance you will be guided through imaginative ideas, stories, metaphors and suggestions which will help you to achieve the changes you desire. You will remain completely in control in the same way you would if someone shouted your name to get your attention when you are reading your book. Nobody can make you do anything you do not want to - your subconscious mind will simply reject any suggestion that is not in your best interests. During trance, although we feel as if we have switched off, our brains are actually working harder to process information and come up with solutions.
​
Hypnosis is not something that I do to you but rather something that you allow yourself to experience. Hypnotherapy is a wonderfully relaxing and enjoyable experience and much like daydreaming. As in daydreaming, you can often hear everything that is being said whilst in a deeply relaxed state.
