FAQ
A session usually starts with a discussion of issues you face and understanding what you'd like to achieve through hypnotherapy.
After defining an objective, you would go into the transe state with my guidance, where you are more in tune with your bodily sensations and the unconscious mind. It is a state where your emotions are the most easily accessed, with which we make conversations and create changes.
It works equally well in an online session.
No. It is not the goal to make a client sleep during a session (although it could happen unintentionally, in rare cases where the client experiences chronic fatigue).
Hypnosis is a state where the conscious mind is less active, which happens also in sleep, hence coming out from a session, most clients report feeling calm.
According to Dr David Spiegel, psychiatrist and professor at Stanford University, three things characterized the entry into the hypnotic state - the first being toned down activity in the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, a conflict detector. Turning down activity in that region makes it less likely that you'll be distracted and pulled out of whatever you're in.
Second thing is the Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is in greater synchronicity with the insula, creating greater brain-body connection under hypnosis.
The third thing is that other parts of the brain become less connected, including that same region of planning and routines, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, and a part of the brain characterized by self-reflection.
Hypnotherapy is used to address a wide range of mental and physical health conditions and to modify habits. Specific applications include managing chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, quitting smoking, and weight management. It can also be beneficial for phobias, panic attacks, PTSD, and improving self-esteem. Hypnosis can enhance the effectiveness of other psychological treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and is used in sports psychology for visualization and performance enhancement. The core benefit lies in its ability to help individuals concentrate more intensely on desired changes, gain control over their thoughts and bodily functions (like pain or hunger), and surprise themselves by adopting new, healthier behaviors quickly.
Absolutely. These are some of the most common themes explored in hypnotherapy sessions. In a hypnotic state, we can identify and address limiting beliefs that act as barriers to self-confidence and emotional release, allowing for deeper inner work and positive change.
Hypnosis can be a powerful tool for addressing various mental and psychological challenges. It may help with trauma resolution, breaking unwanted habits like stress eating or smoking, boosting self-confidence, and much more. By accessing the subconscious mind, hypnosis can facilitate meaningful change and emotional healing.
Hypnosis can be surprisingly simple. In fact, we naturally enter hypnotic states throughout the day without even realizing it. During a session, your hypnotherapist will guide you into the desired state of consciousness — all you need to do is follow their instructions. Most importantly, if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to share them with your therapist. Feeling safe and relaxed is key to successfully entering hypnosis.
There is indeed a range of individual hypnotizability. While all eight-year-olds are often in a trance-like state, the ability to respond to suggestions varies among adults. Questionnaires, like the 'Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility', can assess this responsiveness. However, even individuals with low hypnotizability scores may still find hypnosis helpful. Being easily hypnotizable is not synonymous with gullibility; rather, it signifies an openness to changing one's perspective and a capacity for intense focus and absorption. Highly hypnotizable individuals can still evaluate and judge suggestions, deciding whether or not to engage.
