Unlock Your Mind's Potential

How Hypnotherapy Helps

Hypnotherapy involves relaxing the mind and body which in itself is good for stress and anxiety but it also makes positive suggestions to change your mind-set and the way you view and deal with problems or challenges that cause you stress and upset.

Anxiety can be triggered by a stressful memory or event. Sometimes you may know the trigger of your anxiety but sometimes it is buried deep within your subconscious mind and you will not know what is causing you anxiety. Hypnotherapy accesses and communicates with your subconscious mind to reveal hidden memories or traumas and can change the emotions attached to a traumatic event.

How Hypnotherapy Helps

Hypnotherapy is very effective at changing the emotions and negative feelings linked to an event or issue and can positively change your outlook.

Low confidence and self-belief were the very issues that brought me to hypnotherapy so I know first hand how successful it can be. It helped me overcome traumatic events from my childhood that affected my confidence and has led me into helping people overcome their issues today.

What IEMT Can Help With

In IEMT I work with emotional imprints and identity imprints. If you have been told by someone you trust or someone in high authority that you are stupid or incapable of achieving something, then you will more than likely believe this which creates an emotional imprint within you. Your beliefs are now that you are incapable of achieving a goal and you give up trying.

Identity imprints work with problems with your identity, i.e. gender, religion, how you see yourself and perceive yourself, how others perceive you etc. Identity issues can arise when a big change happens in your life and you question who you are or you lose yourself.

I also work with patterns of chronicity which are behavioural patterns that have been learned. There are five different types I work with and this help explains how you think and behave.

IEMT can be effective at working with all types of issues from anxiety and depression to stress, PTSD, self-esteem and confidence issues, anger management and many more.

Issues Hypnotherapy Can Help With

• Headaches and migraines
• Cancer pain
• Back pain
• Arthritis
• Phantom limb pain
• Fibromyalgia
• Dental pain

The British Pain Society and Cancer Research UK recommend hypnotherapy and self hypnosis for relaxation techniques and as we know relaxation in itself helps with pain management because when the body is relaxed and in 'green mode' everything is working in sync and harmony within our body and endorphins are released which are our body's natural pain killers, but when the stress response is triggered by pain, certain bodily functions shut down in order to prepare us to fight, flight or freeze and causes muscles to tense which causes more aches and pains.

How Hypnotherapy Helps with Fears & Phobias

Hypnotherapy works by accessing your subconscious mind where these fears are stored. Through relaxation and guided imagery, we can help reframe your response to the feared object or situation, replacing anxiety with calm and confidence.

Most phobias can be addressed in just a few sessions, with many clients experiencing significant relief after their first session. The techniques you learn can be applied to manage anxiety in other areas of your life as well.

How Hypnotherapy Helps with Relationship Issues

Hypnotherapy can help you identify and address subconscious patterns that may be affecting your relationships. These might include:

• Fear of intimacy or commitment
• Patterns of attracting unhealthy relationships
• Communication difficulties
• Trust issues from past experiences
• Anxiety about relationship changes
• Difficulty setting boundaries

Through hypnotherapy, you can develop new perspectives and responses that support healthier relationships. While hypnotherapy is not a substitute for couples counseling, it can be a powerful tool for addressing your own contribution to relationship dynamics.
