What is Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a psychological procedure that can help to change how you feel, think about a specific issue and act.

During hypnosis, you are put in a state of focused concentration that involves becoming less aware of your surroundings. In this state, you are more able to accept ‘suggestions’, also known as ‘invitations’. Your therapist will make suggestions that encourage you to move away from unhelpful beliefs towards more helpful beliefs.


For example, if you mistakenly believe that you are a bad person, in hypnosis the therapist will give you suggestions that help to change that to a more reasonable belief that you are fine as you are.

What is Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a type of psychological therapy that uses hypnosis to help treat certain mental and physical health conditions. It can also be used to change habits.


Some therapists also use hypnosis to increase the effectiveness of other psychological treatments, or pain management. However, they may describe the treatment they are giving you by its usual name (such as CBT) rather than calling it hypnotherapy.


You can also perform hypnosis on yourself, which is called self-hypnosis. It is a very useful life skill, which you might be taught during hypnotherapy sessions. Once you have experienced hypnosis for yourself and understand the process, you could rehearse sessions with yourself without using a recording, or you can ask your therapist to recommend some tracks if you wish. There are lots of apps and downloads of hypnotic procedures available. For instance, you might want to start with something like ‘Headspace’, which is a well-known meditation app that can help to put you in a hypnotic-like state, or you can download some of our MP3’s.
