Hypnotherapy is a form of therapy that often involves focused attention, and heightened suggestibility to help individuals make positive changes in their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.
During a hypnotherapy session, a therapist uses techniques to induce a trance-like state, also known as hypnosis. In this state, the individual becomes highly receptive to suggestions and can explore and address underlying issues or make desired changes. You don't actually need to be in a trance to be suggestible.

A typical hypnotherapy session begins with a conversation between the therapist and the client to understand the client's goals and concerns. Then, the therapist guides the client more into a trance like state and uses suggestions or scripts tailored to the client's needs.
Hypnotherapy is considered safe when conducted by a trained and qualified therapist. It is a non-invasive approach that does not involve the use of drugs or physical harm. Individuals cannot be forced to do anything against their will while under hypnosis. If you are classed as having a mental health issue, the relevant professional will need to provide written confirmation that they are happy for you to experience hypnosis.
Most people can be hypnotised to some degree if they are willing and open to the process. However, the depth of hypnosis and the effectiveness of the therapy will vary from person to person. When you watch TV and see the adverts between the programs, you can often be in a state of trance, almost zoning out, in a state of hypnosis perhaps and being suggested to by adverts! No wonder many of us spend beyond our means.
The number of sessions needed can vary depending on the individual and the issue being addressed. Some people may see significant results in just a few sessions, while others may require more ongoing sessions.
Hypnosis often feels like a deep state of relaxation and focused attention. Some people report feeling detached from their surroundings, while others simply feel deeply relaxed and aware.
Hypnotherapy has been found to be effective for many individuals in addressing various issues. However, its effectiveness will vary from person to person and dependent on the therapist you use. Success often depends on the individual's willingness to participate in the process and their compatibility with the therapist.
Yes, many people can learn self-hypnosis techniques to help with relaxation, stress management, and self-improvement. A qualified hypnotherapist can teach you these techniques.
