FAQs About Hypnotherapy

WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?

Hypnotherapy utilises hypnosis—a state of highly focused attention and heightened relaxation—to address and treat mental health issues. Our psychologist guides clients through a series of steps to achieve this therapeutic state, promoting profound relaxation and focus.

Applications of Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is versatile, addressing conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and aiding in pain management, ADHD management, and overcoming eating disorders. It’s also an effective supplementary tool for quitting smoking and weight loss.

RESULTS OF HYPNOTHERAPY

Most clients experience significant improvements within just a few sessions. The progress and outcome depend on the individual’s issues, with many reporting positive changes after two to six sessions.
