Is Hypnotherapy safe?
Absolutely. Look at it from my point of view - I wouldn't keep clients for long if they felt uncomfortable or 'out of control', or found themselves eating onions like apples if anyone said a trigger word after a session! Here's a shocker - I don't even put you into hypnosis, I facilitate you putting yourself into trance. There's nothing strange about hypnosis or anything weird about inducting it - no swinging watches I'm afraid! I just drone on for a very, very long time, using carefully worded 'language patterns' to bring your mind to a comfortable, receptive state, while weaving pleasant, metaphor-rich tales of sunny beaches and secret gardens which work much harder on your subconscious than might be immediately apparent. When you are in a state of deep relaxation and focus, These patterns give your subconscious mind positive suggestions to work on. And that's all they are ... suggestions. You'll reject any that don't sit right with you. Some clients hear every word, some drift in and out of listening, and some don't hear much beyond the first few sentences, but everyone is in control throughout. Just like doing that dull chore where your mind drifts off somewhere else entirely, you can 'snap out of it' at any moment if necessary. You may feel a little woozy for a minute or two, but you'll feel back to normal again pretty quickly. As a member of the AfSFH and NCH you can trust that I abide by strict codes of conduct.
