Hypnotherapy
in Sheffield
Would
you like to be more relaxed, healthier, confident or happy?
Paul Peace
and Karen Bartle run a successful Sheffield-based hypnotherapy
practice
and are variously members of the National Council for Hypnotherapy,
General Hypnotherapy Register, British Psychological Society
and Hypnotherapy Association.
Hypnotherapy
can be used to tackle many issues including weight loss, stress,
anxiety, panic, phobia, smoking cessation, IBS (irritable
bowel syndrome) and sleep problems.
Hypnotherapy
is a relaxing, pleasant experience. It is safe and has no
side effects. Hypnotherapy is a powerful way to tackle unconscious
problems. Habits are an example of something that has become
automated in the unconscious mind.
Some
habits are good. For example, it is useful for experienced
drivers to not have to worry about every detail when driving,
such as gears, brakes, steering, etc. If these things become
unconscious and automated, the driver can then concentrate
on what really matters - the road. It can be difficult to
learn new habits but once in place they can be useful and
lasting.
However,
this stubbornness is not helpful with bad habits such as smoking,
poor eating habits, etc. The state of hypnosis allows the
hypnotherapist to offer suggestions for change of habits at
this deep-rooted unconscious level.
Hypnotherapy
is also useful for issues where emotions, fears and memories
are the root cause. Emotions, fears and memories reside mostly
in the unconscious mind, surfacing to consciousness only here
and there, often in inappropriate ways and at inappropriate
times. Because they reside at a deep unconscious level, it
is best to tackle them at this level by using hypnotherapy.
Anyone
with a phobia, for example, can tell you they already know
at a conscious level how silly they feel; how irrational it
is. Yet somehow, they feel unable to control their unconscious
fear as it surfaces. Hypnotherapy can tackle this. Someone
wanting to lose weight or stop smoking knows in the rational,
conscious part of their mind that they are eating unhealthily
or smoking, yet their unconscious mind continues to pester
and resist efforts to change.
It
is impossible to predict with any certainty how long a course
of treatment will be. Everyone has different problems, different
complexes of interrelated problems, different levels of motivation,
etc. However, we can provide a rough guide. A course of hypnotherapy
typically takes 3-6 x 1 hour sessions. On occasion, 2 sessions
are sufficient with a tightly defined problem. A single session
is a typical model for light smokers. Occasionally, for some
issues, more than 6 sessions are required. Only in the most
severe cases, such as clinical depression and multiple trauma,
would 8+ sessions sometimes be required. Hypnotherapy is therefore
one of the briefest therapies available.
People
travel to see us from a wide area, including Leicester and
Leeds, as well as our local towns, such as Barnsley, Rotherham,
Dronfield, Chesterfield and Wakefield. We conduct all our
hypnotherapy in Sheffield, at our practice in Totley.
So,
if you are looking for a hypnotherapist in Sheffield we hope
to hear from you soon.
