Hypnotherapy has two significant advantages over other psychological approaches:

It deals directly with the subconscious mind and it is usually far quicker in producing beneficial changes and results. 

​

The conscious mind is like the tip of the iceberg. It's the part of your brain that analyses and criticises, it also deals with your short term memory. Whereas the subconscious part of your brain is responsible for all of the unconscious processes that take place to keep you alive. It is also responsible for your long term memory, emotions, habits, relationship patterns, involuntary bodily functions and your creativity. This is why hypnosis works really well in hypnobirthing which deals with emotions and bodily functions, habits such as smoking cessation, and for the relief of anxiety in it's many forms. 

​

Hypnosis brings you into a state of heightened awareness, which involves a change to your brain wave activity, allowing you access to those unconscious processes mentioned above. 

You will not fall asleep, lose control in any way or say or do anything you're uncomfortable with.
