Hypnotherapy

When I meet people and tell them that I'm a Clinical Hypnotherapist,  I'm often asked 'What is Hypnotherapy effective for?'

Generally, people think hypnosis is for helping people to stop smoking, or overcoming phobias. There are actually far more issues that hypnotherapy can be used for and I see many of these on a daily basis at my Hypnotherapy Practice in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire.

This diagram from ehypnotherapists.com.au explains how hypnosis offers a wide range of proven benefits beyond what most people think.

If I had to list the three most common issues I see as a Clinical Hypnotherapist, they are as follows:

• Anxiety - in various forms, General Anxiety, Social Anxiety, OCD, PTSD
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome - The physical symptoms of IBS are exacerbated by stress
• Confidence Issues - Self Image, Self Belief, Limiting Beliefs, Public Speaking

According to a report by Healthline.com

Hypnotherapy offers the potential to help treat your medical conditions without the need for invasive therapies or additional medications. Therapists consider hypnotherapy a safe treatment option, with minimal side effects.

While it may not work for everyone, hypnotherapy is what’s known as a complementary therapy. A person can use hypnotherapy in addition to other treatments for depression to enhance an overall sense of well-being, lift mood, and boost feelings of hopefulness. Hypnotherapists use it to treat a number of conditions, including:

• anxiety
• chronic pain
• concentration problems
• irritable bowel syndrome
• smoking control
• teeth grinding

A person with depression experiences a wide variety of emotions. According to the University of New Hampshire, hypnotherapy can help a person learn to reduce and/or better control feelings of anxiety, stress, and sadness. Hypnotherapy is also used to treat negative behaviors that could be worsening a person’s depression. These behaviors may include smoking and poor eating and sleeping habits.

This is one of the many reasons I love my work as a Hypnotherapist, I can help so many people, with so many issues.
