Hypnotherapy

I am currently undertaking my training as a Solution-Focused hypnotherapist and I will be able to offer this to clients around the Spring 2024. In the meantime, here is an description of what Solution-Focused hypnotherapy is.

Solution-focused hypnotherapy (SFH) is an approach to hypnotherapy that focuses on helping individuals identify and achieve their desired goals or outcomes, rather than delving deeply into the underlying causes of their issues. This therapeutic approach combines elements of traditional hypnotherapy with principles from solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT), a psychological counselling method.

1. Goal-Oriented Approach: SFH is centred around helping clients to define and work towards their specific goals or desired outcomes. These goals can relate to a wide range of issues, including managing stress, overcoming phobias, improving self-confidence, or breaking unwanted habits.
2. Positive and Solution-Oriented: Instead of dwelling on past problems or analysing the root causes of issues, SFH places a strong emphasis on identifying solutions and promoting positive change. This forward-thinking approach helps clients to focus on their strengths and capabilities rather than their problems.
3. Collaborative Process: The therapist and client work collaboratively to identify and clarify the client’s goals. The therapist helps the client to explore potential solutions and develop strategies to achieve those goals. This collaborative aspect encourages a sense of empowerment and self-determination.
4. Hypnosis as a Tool: Hypnosis is used as a tool to help clients to relax, access their subconscious mind, and increase their receptivity to what the therapist is saying. During hypnosis, the therapist my use language and visualisation techniques to reinforce the client’s goals, promote relaxation and facilitate mental and emotional wellbeing.
5. Brief and Time-Efficient: SFH is often considered a time-efficient form of therapy. Since it is focused on finding solutions and achieving goals rather than delving into long, exploratory discussion, it typically requires fewer sessions than other therapeutic approaches.
6. Strength-Based Approach: SFH operates on the assumption that people possess the internal resources and strengths necessary to create positive change in their lives. The therapist’s role is to help clients to recognise and harness their strengths.
7. Measurable Progress: Progress in SFH is often measured through the achievement of specific, measurable, and realistic goals set by the client. This allows both the client and therapist to track and celebrate successes as they occur.
8. Applicability: SFH can be applied to a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, weight management, smoking cessation, phobias, trauma, improved self-esteem and more. It is especially beneficial for individuals who are motivated to make positive changes in their lives.
9. Non-Invasive and Safe: SFH is safe and non-invasive. Hypnosis is a natural state of mind that most people experience daily in some form (e.g day-dreaming) and it is used in a therapeutic context to promote relaxation and focus on desired outcomes.
10. Client-Centred: The therapy is client-centred, meaning that the client’s preferences, goals and comfort level are highly regarded throughout the process. The therapist tailors the approach to suit the individual’s needs and preferences

In summary, SFH is a practical and goal-oriented approach that combines hypnotherapy techniques with the principles of SFBT. It offers clients a positive and forward-thinking path to addressing their issues, making it a valuable option for those seeking to achieve specific goals and create positive change in their lives.
