Clinical Hypnotherapy

Clinical hypnotherapy is a form of psychotherapy in which hypnosis is used to treat and alleviate a variety of physical and psychological symptoms.

A hypnotherapy session involves getting into a relaxed state of mind where your therapist can communicate with your subconscious to solve problems such as coping with stress and breaking bad habits. It combines cognitive therapeutic counselling techniques with subconscious healing techniques.
