Why Make the Decision to Change?

As human beings we are all naturally scared of change and it makes us feel anxious. Sometimes though, change is essential in order for us to be who we want to be. Life is precious and it is so short. If we are unhappy about any aspect of our lives then it makes sense for us to try and change that aspect in order to reach our full potential for happiness and lead the lives that we deserve. Let me help you to make positive change in your life. You deserve to be happy.

Here are some of the issues and concerns that I can help you with via hypnotherapy:

Quit Smoking

Weight Loss including Virtual Gastric Band Hypnotherapy

Fears and Phobias

Anxiety

Self Confidence and Self Esteem

Goal Attainment

Stress

Insomnia

Test Fears (eg. Exams or driving test)

Pain Management

Habits

Panic Attacks

Bereavement

My therapy is always individually tailored to suit you, so if your problem is not listed above then please contact me and I will be happy to help you. You can message me by visiting my website milestonetherapies.co.uk.

Sessions are between 50 minutes to an hour long, price on application. Most people require around 4 to 5 sessions of hypnotherapy, but I can offer more if required. Quitting smoking is the only exception to this as can be done in three sessions only.

Sessions take place 7 days a week including weekends in Kings Langley. Please contact me to see how I can help you. Bookings can be taken via my website at milestonetherapies.co.uk, or by phone 07979373551. Life is short so make the decision to embrace change today. In the words of George Elliot 'It's never too late to be what you might have been'.

What to Expect During Hypnotherapy Sessions

The first half of each hypnotherapy session is when we will work together to clarify what you want to achieve and explore any obstacles (real or imagined) that may hinder your progress. The information that I gather from this first half of each session is critical as it directly informs the suggestions that I will put into your subconscious. After the counselling, I will ask you to recline your chair as much as you feel comfortable with and to start to relax. I will then guide you through some deep breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation so that you are ready to be taken into a light hypnosis. In this state your subconscious will be able to accept the suggestions that I will give it. You will be in full control at all times. This is not the same as stage hypnotism! You will be extremely relaxed but at all times you will be aware of what is happening and you certainly wont do or say anything that you don't want to do or say. If you happen to be so relaxed that you drift off to sleep then you don't need to worry as your subconscious will still receive the suggestions and the therapy will still work.

What is Hypnotherapy?

Put simply, hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis in therapy. Hypnosis is a special focussing of the consciousness which can be brought about through relaxation. The experience of hypnosis is more commonplace than we might think – it is indistinguishable from a day dream, of being in 'auto-pilot' when driving down a familiar road, or being so absorbed in a book or a film that you are temporarily unaware of your environment. It is a perfectly natural state in which you have full control at all times. The level of depth of hypnotic state required for hypnotherapy is very light and is achievable of everyone, as long as they are able to relax. This is nothing like the deep trance one might see during hypnosis shows for entertainment. In hypnotherapy you can stop at any time and you will never do or say anything that you don't want to do or say. It is an excellent tool to use if you want to make positive changes in your life, and you want to do so in as little as three sessions (e.g. smoking cessation).
