Hypnotherapy is the application of hypnotic techniques which can help bring about beneficial changes within the client.

Hypnosis is an altered state of awareness and in this trance like state the client is not asleep, but just in a very pleasant relaxed state of mind and body where the imagination can be utilised or come into play, where your subconscious mind is listening, while your conscious mind is somewhere else.

There are different levels of hypnosis from light, medium to somnambulism. The latter is characterised by amnesia after awakening, but anyone can be hypnotised and can benefit from it. It is a natural phenomenom. For instance - a person maybe at a boring talk or lecture, the person is aware of where they are, but their mind momentarily has wandered elsewhere imagining a pleasant holiday or what they maybe having for dinner etc. It is like daydreaming, you are there but not there. In this trance like state many changes can take place, the safe release of repressed feelings which may be holding the client back, and hindering them to enjoy life to the full. Feelings of low self esteem, and lack of confidence or obsessional thoughts or actions can be helped and positive suggestions can be given.

People can suffer from a wide variety of distressing feelings such as panic attacks, anxiety, jealousy, guilt, anger or inadequacy.
