What is Hypnosis?
flexible, conversational, and responsive
Hypnosis is a natural, focused state of attention that allows your mind to become more open to positive suggestion, learning, and change.
It’s often experienced as a deeply relaxed yet alert state much like when you’re daydreaming or completely absorbed in a book or film.
The style of hypnosis I use is based on the work of Dr Milton Erickson, a pioneering psychiatrist and psychotherapist. Erickson believed that each person holds the inner resources needed to overcome challenges and create meaningful change. Rather than using direct or scripted suggestions.
This approach helps guide your subconscious mind towards useful insights, alternative perspectives, and new patterns of thinking. It supports the brain’s natural ability to rewire itself known as neuroplasticity making it a powerful complement to solution-focused therapy.
Why is Hypnosis Effective?
Hypnosis is effective because it works with the subconscious mind, where many of our habits, beliefs, and emotional responses are stored. When you’re in a relaxed, hypnotic state, the brain is more receptive to positive ideas and visualisations helping to break unhelpful patterns and strengthen new, healthier ones.
It’s a gentle and empowering process there’s no mind control or clucking like a chicken just a quiet space for your mind to rest, reset, and do the work it already knows how to do.
Clients often leave feeling calmer, clearer, and more in control and over time, this approach helps create lasting shifts in mindset, behaviour, and wellbeing.
