3. Hypnotherapy – gentle but effective

I could fill several pages discussing what hypnosis is, and what it isn't - and the different techniques that can be utilised, however in my experience most clients prefer to speak to a potential therapist - as rapport and confidence in the practitioner is a very important part of the therapeutic relationship. In the hands of an ethical professional, this is a very safe therapy that can have profound effects.

Used in the clinical setting, this technique is far removed from what you may see on the television or at stage shows - which tend to be the only experience most new clients have ever had of hypnosis. Although I could (if I so wished) host a stage show, this is something I would never consider doing as I believe that this brings the therapeutic techniques into disrepute.

Most clients are a little nervous when they first try this therapy, but after the first session they realise that it is not in the least bit frightening, I haven't made them think they are a chicken - and actually it was very relaxing! At subsequent visits, clients are more likely to let themselves go into a deeper level of trance state, and experience the benefits this can bring.
