Hypnosis and NLP can work quickly and effectively.  This is because habits and behaviours are, in the main unconscious.  Therefore, by using tools that work with your unconscious mind, change is possible to occur*.

Everyone is an individual and some treatments are much faster than others because of the nature of the session.  Some clients need to be seen for just one session and some slightly longer*.  We will always be clear with you about how quickly we can work with you.  One thing we are very clear about is that all of our sessions are goal orientated.

Hypnotherapy and NLP is very safe.  In fact most people find it an incredibly relaxing and enjoyable experience.  Furthermore, our therapists have collectively had thousands of hours training, which is far greater than the average hypnotherapist has completed.

The team is also fully insured, and are members of the leading industry bodies.

We will answer any question you have both before and during your appointment to reassure you.

In short, you are in very safe hands.

Hypnosis involves you being placed into a light, medium or deep trance state allowing us to work with your unconscious mind.

Being in a trance is very relaxing. It is a bit like when you are watching your favourite film or TV programme in that you are become totally focused on that one thing.  In this case though, the focus is on relaxing

With hypnosis your focus becomes focused on being very relaxed both mentally and physically.

You will be able to hear everything that is said when you are in trance.

Being in a hypnotic trance means that we can work communicate directly with your unconscious / sub-conscious mind.  This is where memories and motivations are stored are located along with your ability to learn.

By communicating directly with your unconscious mind, it’s possible achieve the goals you set out at the beginning of the session and resolve any underlying issues you may have had.

NLP is short for Neuro Linguistic Programming. It was originally developed in the 1970’s by Dr’s John Grinder & Richard Bandler.   NLP modeled the most effective forms of therapy and re-purposed them in a new form, called NLP.

NLP can work conversationally and quickly.

Famous practitioners of NLP include the likes of Tony Robbins and Paul McKenna.

Our co-founder David Shephard sits on two of the three global bodies of NLP. He is President of the ABNLP and on the advisory committee of the ANLP.

You should expect us to be warm, kind and focused on you in our very comfortable treatment room.  Each session lasts two hours.  Our aim is for you to have an effective time whilst visiting us.*

In order for you to get the best result out of the session, our sessions follow a simple process:

Before the session

We will ask you to complete both a pre-session questionnaire and if relevant a log before the session. This helps us understand a lot more about what’s going and helps us tailor the session in advance of seeing you. For example it helps us understand any pattern of behaviour, your thoughts, beliefs etc.

During the session

Firstly, we establish your goal in great depth.

Secondly, we’ll uncover what you need to do more of, or less or completely learn to help you achieve your goals. This will involve being asked a lot of questions to help us understand. We’re sure you’ll have a few too and you can ask these at any time.

Third – we’ll do hypnosis, NLP, Havening & TFT to help your problem*

Fourth – we will give you some tools and techniques that you can do by yourself at home

Fifth – please be aware that whilst we give you 100% effort and skill, we can’t guarantee a success. In fact, we suggest running a mile from therapists offering such guarantees.
