Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis in a therapeutic way. Hypnosis is a state of trance which we all enter frequently without even knowing we are doing it. Have you ever been so absorbed in your thoughts that you can't remember the drive home? Or have you ever daydreamed your way through a business meeting and can't recall a word that was said? That's trance and it's a natural state which we all enter at various points throughout the day. In Cognitive Hypnotherapy we utilise these natural trance states to help you change as quickly as possible.

Cognitive Hypnotherapy helps to change problem patterns, by using your conscious mind to alter the unconscious thoughts that drive your problem. In Cognitive Hypnotherapy we think of the unconscious as an area of the mind, separate from the conscious mind, which is capable of making decisions and producing its own behaviour. It is where problem patterns are stored and maintained. All our problems have arisen because our unconscious mind looks to protect us by keeping us away from situations that have brought about an unpleasant experience in the past. When a similar situation occurs, we are emotionally hijacked by our unconscious mind, resulting in behaviour we often can't control or explain.

As a professional Cognitive Hypnotherapist, I act as a tour guide to your mind. I will provide the guide book for your journey. Together we form a partnership that allows you to discover along the way the solutions to your problems.

Cognitive Hypnotherapy is a powerful safe therapeutic tool and a very effective way of helping many problems. If you would like to gain more self belief and confidence or overcome a problem or habit that's holding you back, then cognitive hypnotherapy and NLP could really help.

NLP - Neuro Linguistic Programming is a way of understanding the ways we perceive our world through our senses and a body of techniques that when integrated with Cognitive Hypnotherapy, provide a powerful means of creating change. Your life is not shaped by events, it's how you interpret them and you will discover with NLP, your past does not determine your future - you can learn how to overcome obstacles that stop you achieving your goals and have the life you want much sooner than you may have thought.
