To understand hypnotherapy approach it is necessary to understand how the mind works. In simplified term we can say that the mind has conscious part that is responsible for rations thought, decision making, analyzing etc. And subconscious that controls emotions, feelings; it stores all past memories and controls all the automatic physical side of your body. Our emotions are not always in balance due to inner conflict caused by repressed feelings and un-dealt emotions from the past and stressful things that happens on day to day life. We adopt certain behaviour and seem almost impossible to change because they are stored so deep in us. This is because our subconscious mind holds preconceptions of our past experiences and repeats every time something similar comes up. Many of our internal decision were installed at an early age, most of which you probably don’t even remember on conscious level and are now completely outdated. So we need to go little bit deeper than conscious mind to reinstall new programs in our subconscious mind.

Psychological therapy and counselling is the treatment on conscious level for emotional and psychological disorders, unwanted habits, and undesirable feelings. Through hypnosis we can relax the critical and rational mind to gain access directly to the innermost part of our mind and resolve the root cause that created these unwanted behaviour, limiting beliefs and undesired emotions. Once resolved by suggesting new, positive and creative suggestions enables us to move ahead guiding our life to a healthier path.

Clients are normally relaxed yet fully aware of things happening in your mind and the environment outside. Analytical techniques may be used in an attempt to uncover deep rooted problems that client is unaware of in the past.
