Frequently Asked Questions
What is Hypnosis?
Clients often comment about how “ordinary” hypnosis feels – it’s not unlike daydreaming – you can often hear everything that is being said whilst in a deeply relaxed state. You could think of it as guided daydreaming in a therapeutic setting where the suggestions are designed to be beneficial to help you change unhelpful thought patterns. I cannot make the brain do what it does not want to do. Changes must come about because you want them and are motivated to achieve them. The goals you seek must be yours.
What is the Initial Consultation process?
I will gather relevant facts by asking a few medical questions to gain a collection of information relevant to you, your problems, your sleep patterns and more importantly how I can help you and what you want to achieve from the process. I will explain how the brain works in very simple, understandable terms and show how relevant this is to you and your personal situation.
What happens between sessions?
How often should I attend sessions?
This is personal preference. However, the clients who often get the quickest results attend weekly and listen to the track each night when they go to bed.
How is my information kept?
I comply with GDPR regulations and ensure that all personal data is kept in accordance with the rules set out by the ICO and the professional bodies I am subscribed to. A copy of my privacy policy and GDPR policy is provided before commencement of therapy.
