Christine Taber Hypnotherapy

What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a natural and pleasant state of mind and body which we all enter from time to time. If you have ever lost yourself in a good book or film, or realised you can't remember driving the last mile home, then you have probably been in a hypnotic state!

During hypnosis the body and the conscious mind are in a relaxed, natural state. Whilst in this state the subconscious mind can be very receptive to beneficial suggestions and will accept directions which can promote positive change. No one can make you go into a trance against your will. You will always be aware of what is happening around you and you will always be in control.

What Is Solution Focused Therapy?

Using Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, I help the client build a description of their “preferred future” using scaling and the miracle question. During the process I help the client identify and take small constructive steps in the direction of the desired change. The therapy encourages positive thinking by helping clients to focus on solutions to problems. Clients are encouraged to ask themselves, what do you want to achieve? rather than going into what prompted them to get help in the first place. I will explain how the brain works in an easy to grasp way, enabling clients to understand that how we think determines how we feel. Clients usually find during the process that their sleep patterns improve. Also Motivation, confidence and self-esteem are all restored.
