Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy (talk therapy): Is a broad ideology for treating your mental health issues via conversations with myself as a professional therapist. This in turn helps you understand your feelings, behaviours, relationships and life hurdles to overcome.As the therapist in person but mainly online creates a safe confidential space where you talk about the following: 

  • Past experiences and how or why they affect your present behaviours. 
  • Develop with guidance from myself the practitioner on how to cope with difficult scenarios. 
  • Learn insightful knowledge of your thinking and behaviour patterns. 
  • How to break through your trauma and emotional difficulties. 
  • Why and how to improve your relationships and communication skills.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a branch off Hypnotherapy that identifies and focuses on changing your negative or unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours.  The idea is that thoughts, feelings and our current behaviours are interrelated. The CBT therapy helps  

  • Detect negative or distorted thinking patterns that cause you distress when triggered. 
  • Develop solving skills for your problems that come up in difficult situations
  • You learn coping strategies for practical use
  • You create achievable goals with work towards them 

 

CBT is effective for conditions you suffer or feel debilitated with like anxiety, depression, PTSD, fears and phobias as it creates tools and strategies that you will use between sessions and after therapy sessions.  

It has a more structured focus on goal setting and achievement than talk therapy alone such as life coaching etc. 

Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis: I guide you into a relaxed safe space online into a mind trance state which allows suggestibility and to become more receptive to suggestions implanted within your subconscious mind.

The subconscious is 5% of the mind but controls 95% of the conscious mind. 

This in turn via the Hypnosis sessions alters your mind to the outcome of actions outside of the trance state, by reframing or reprogramming the triggers of clients with issues such as Anxiety, Motivation, Depression, Negative Thought patterns, Relationships etc. 

During my Hypnosis sessions I guide you into a trance-like state while you are always still maintaining full awareness. You always will remain in control and cannot be made to do things against your will.  

In this state you become open and aware of your thoughts, memories, regressions which then I help with guidance get reframed or reprogrammed so now you are now not triggered by issues while out of trance state in your day to day lives.
