Hypnotherapy Edinburgh

Hypnotherapy works with your subconscious mind, and I use a version of the practise called trance. Trance is an ordinary, and very natural state of mind for us to be in. We all go into trance many times during the average day, such as when we are driving, watching TV, reading, and even doing the washing up. The process of trance works with the subconscious part of the brain where our habits and responses are stored. By safely guiding you into a relaxed state, I can gently reframe your experience, helping you to break down patterns of behaviour or barriers that are no longer serving you and that you wish to let go of. Let your imagination guide you towards the best and most positive outcomes for you.

What does Hypnosis feel like?

Hypnosis feels like your mind is wandering, very similar to being in a daydream. And when you’re in this dream-like state, you start to think about something other than what you’re doing. Used in a clinical setting, a general Hypnotherapy session will include listening to gentle, relaxing music, which will encourage your mind to wander, and to specialist language patterns that will help you relax and build confidence. During this time, you will be in complete control, and you will be able to bring yourself out of the trance at any time you want. It all takes place in a safe, confidential space, the best environment for you to let your mind drift and explore.

Each Hypnotherapy session is tailored to your individual needs. We work together to find out what is troubling you, and then towards solutions to address your worries and challenges, developing strategies to take you forward to a happier, more positive version of you. I offer a full range of treatments. These include Solution Focussed Therapy techniques with Hypnosis that treat issues both quickly and in a relaxed setting.

Most people experience significant improvement after just a few sessions, but in some cases it may take a little longer and be a more gradual process. Clients have expressed having lightbulb moments. Others the answers to their problems clicking into place. If you haven’t experienced a relaxing Hypnotherapy before, you’re in for a treat.

My clients tell me that my sessions are relaxing, friendly and enjoyable.

What do we do in a typical session?

Initial session: Our opening session is both a consultation and a getting-to-know-each-other conversation. I’ll explain to you how the brain works, and through that, why you’re feeling the way you do and what together we can do about it. You will map your own treatment path by setting personal goals and the outcomes you wish to achieve. I’ll help you get there and navigate you along the way.

I will give you a download to take away with you, which you can listen to at night to help you to relax. This is the first step on your journey to recovery.

Regular sessions: Each session will look at what you want to achieve. Together we will work through the challenges, agree coping strategies, set realistic goals, and move towards the best possible outcome for you. If you opt to use Hypnotherapy as part of your treatment, we will use trance to help you to achieve your goals.

Further support away from our sessions:

Between sessions: You will be given a relaxation download to listen to at home. This will enable you to continue our work away from our sessions using full mind and body relaxation. Using specialist language patterns, we can progress our work in building confidence, recognising your inner coping skills and resilience. This will help you to reframe any past experiences in a positive, more confident way. Listening to the download will consolidate our therapy session and progress you towards the goal setting ahead.

Please note that as this download includes a full body relaxation it should only be listened to at home in a relaxing environment.

How long does a typical session take.
You can expect a regular session to last an hour. At each session we will talk about what brings you to me today, and work together towards your future, positive wellbeing.
