Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis is a way of narrowing the focus of attention - much like being absorbed in a good book, so although deeply relaxed, you will remain conscious and in control at all times, allowing you to totally enjoy the whole experience in a safe and comfortable environment.

Naturally, most people want to know what to expect from hypnotherapy. In short, a person can't be hypnotised against their will, so there is no need to feel worried or anxious about being led into deep relaxation. The aim is to work with you, completely confidentially, as an individual in order to gain the maximum benefit for you.

Hypnotherapy sessions are often slightly longer than counselling sessions, generally lasting from 45 minutes to an hour

Areas We Offer

Anxiety & Panic Attacks

Feeling anxious is a natural part of the human condition that allows us to adapt and survive situations through life but if these levels of anxiety are out of proportion with the real 'threat' then problems can arise. It is almost like having an over-sensitive alarm system within ourselves that over-reacts to everyday situations.

By learning to recognise these inappropriate responses and then using simple but effective techniques that hypnotherapy and counselling can provide, these feelings of panic and anxiety can be reduced to manageable levels, eventually preventing attacks from occurring at all and giving you back the control you want over your life.

Depression

Depression is a condition that is more common than not and approximately 75% of the population will experience it at some point in their lives.

The amount of pressure that most of us experience in the modern world can be overwhelming and is probably one of the causes of the increase of clinical depression in Western society. Hypnotherapy has become a highly sought-after form of treatment due to its effective results without the use of drugs. It is slowly being acknowledged that depression results from how we think and feel and sometimes our diet, rather than from a genetic or hormonal imbalance and this is why hypnotherapy can be so effective in a healthy and positive way.

If you feel that hypnotherapy might not be for you though, then counselling is another effective therapy offered by Luisa that is based on a holistic and client-centered approach.  The client/therapist relationship will work towards working through problems together to help you, the client, find the causes of depression and the solutions. The aim is to help you find the tools that best suit you to change your life for the better.

Sleep Disorder

Sleeping disorders are common to most of us at some time in our lives. Hypnotherapy is a safe and fast method to achieve a good night's sleep. Good sleep is vital to promote good health and well-being. By encouraging the use of simple techniques it is easy to combat the 'restless' brain activity during the night that makes sleeping difficult. You will find yourself very relaxed after hypnotherapy and with the skills to regain control over your sleeping patterns. 

Or perhaps there is something that you would rather discuss in your own time and at your own pace? In which case counselling might suit you better.  Problems and issues that seem to haunt you at night can be worked through completely confidentially and with complete respect and privacy.

Deep, restful sleep promotes physical well-being as well as a more focused approach to daily tasks. So why not begin to fix this today?

Stress Management

Although it may not feel like it at times, stress is useful for motivating change. However, too much of it can create high levels of the stress hormone, Cortisol in our blood streams. This in turn could lead to heart-attacks and other stress-related conditions.

A very important skill that we often do not learn is how to relax and regain control but it is one that everyone should have in order to be able to cope better in difficult situations that bring on anxiety or stress. Hypnotherapy won't be able to remove the stressful situations from life but it can give you the skills to handle them effectively. These techniques, along with self-hypnosis and learning deep relaxation techniques are proven to be an effective way of dealing with stress.

Fears & Phobias

Many people think that they are alone in suffering with a fear or a phobia but they are in fact quite common. One of the most common fears is that of spiders but there are others such as a fear of flying, heights, insects or enclosed spaces - and many more.

No matter what your fear is it is never trivial. Exposure therapy is never used and I do not confront clients with their fears but use gentler techniques that allow the client to re-address their fear in a calm and safe manner and so detach it from the object of fear.

The results can be amazing in a very short time. Many people have resolved their fears completely which has led them to live their lives in a much more positive way such as they had never dreamed of.

Quitting Smoking

Hypnotherapy is already well known as a fast and effective method to quit smoking for good. It is one of the areas in life that is often thought about but left for another day because we lead busy and sometimes stressful lives. That is why I try to book smokers in as a priority, because when you have made that decision to quit, the time to act is now. Call today and we can arrange the first and most convenient appointment so that you can begin to enjoy the benefits of being a non-smoker as soon as possible. It really can be done - often in one session.

Weight Control

Most of us have tried to diet at some point in our lives but have you noticed how they never seem to work in the long term?

Hypnotherapy is a great way to change how you think about food and so eating healthily becomes a natural and normal part of your day. Hypnosis can re-train the mind/body's associations with food and therefore can change the way you eat rather than how much you eat.

Enhance your life by taking control of your eating and be the person you feel you are. Please check with your GP regarding the weight you want to reach and that you have no medical history that could prevent safe weight loss.
