Hypnotherapy, simply put…

Hypnotherapy is a gentle, non-intrusive approach that helps people move beyond issues and limitations affecting their daily lives.

By harnessing the brain’s natural ability to reorganise itself (neuroplasticity) it supports the release of past traumas, unwanted behaviours, and patterns that cause suffering.

This therapy can help you restore balance, build a fulfilling and stable life, strengthen relationships, reduce feelings of isolation, find meaningful work, and reconnect with yourself.

Did you say neuroplasticity?

Our brain is an incredibly powerful tool, capable of creating and strengthening neural pathways. Think of these pathways as main roads or motorways of nerve cells that transmit messages. The more we use a particular pathway, the stronger and more automatic it becomes. Repeating a new task or habit consistently helps it become second nature over time.

Neuroplasticity is the term used to describe the brain’s remarkable ability to reorganise itself—both physically and functionally—in response to our environment, behaviours, thoughts, and emotions.

Although neuroplasticity becomes somewhat less flexible as we age, research shows it continues to support the development of new skills and the recovery from injuries or difficulties that might otherwise hold us back.

Much like the body’s natural healing process after a physical injury, the brain also has a way of recovering from emotional wounds. Hypnotherapy allows us to activate and guide this process, helping us restore balance and create positive change.

Conscious vs. Unconscious mind

Neuroscientists have shown that the conscious mind is responsible for decisions only about 5% of the time—the rest is guided by our unconscious mind. This means that most of our everyday choices and behaviours happen without us even realising it.

While the conscious mind can process roughly seven pieces of information per second, the unconscious mind records more than 7,000 at any given moment.

From birth, all this information is stored in the unconscious mind, which “speaks” to us through our actions or inactions, habits, impulses, our dreams, and even our symptoms.

Think of the unconscious mind as an immense reservoir of resources that we often don’t know how to access consciously.

Therapeutic approaches such as hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and Rapid Resolution Therapy® (RRT) allow us to tap into these resources, remove blockages, and generate meaningful, long term positive change.

Everyone already has within them the resources needed to improve and thrive—this work simply helps those resources come forward and work for you.
