Hypnosis Theory

The theoretical basis of hypnotherapy is grounded in how our mind works. Our minds are broadly composed of two halves, the right side and the left side, or the conscious aspect and the subconscious aspect.

The subconscious side holds all our learned experience, accepting information uncritically. When we are awake, our conscious side is alert and censoring all information that appears to consciousness before accepting it into our unconscious mind.

Many problems that we experience are due to events occurring in our formative years or by extended repetition and reinforcement. Very often our behavior is governed by events we my have no conscious memories of yet continue to effect how we react and behave.

Our unconscious mind always acts in such a way that it attempts to protect and preserve the individual, you. Many fears and phobias have at their root a form of exaggerated self-preservation. Overtime these become over-exaggerated and generalised, often to the point where they begin to restrict a normal successful life.

WITH HYPNOTHERAPY YOUR PROBLEMS CAN BE TREATED

Hypnotherapy revises the information held in the unconscious mind that controls our feelings, habits and behaviors. By resolving the problem and not just the symptom, hypnotherapy is a successful treatment.

The hypnotic state occurs normally in everyone. It is a naturally occurring state of mind that we all experience. As your hypnotherapist i help you use this state to make deep and long lasting changes to thoughts, feelings and behavior.
