The free initial consultation lasts up to an hour and is an opportunity to get to know each other and for you to ask Michael any questions you may have about how you will work together.
We will discuss your needs and desired outcomes, and outline an individually tailored programme designed to suit to your needs. Michael will endeavour to find out as much as he can about you in order to choose the most appropriate techniques for you and for the therapy to have a greater impact.
After taking notes down an explanation follows of how your mind works, what hypnosis and trance are about, what would work best for you and how many sessions will be required.
Michael then asks you to fill in a basic confidentiality form which would ensure you that we would respect data protection and have taken measures to ensure that information supplied to us is held securely. Finally the next session will be booked and and you will be given a FREE hypnotherapy CD to listen to in between sessions.
Subsequent sessions typically last about an hour.
The first part of the session is spent talking and during the second part whilst you relax very comfortably on the couch, Michael will guide you gently into a natural relaxed trance state or ‘hypnosis’ which is a state of heightened focused awareness. This process allows you to access your subconscious mind where your habits, behaviours and experiences are stored, so you can tap into your inner resources to find solutions to your problems. Each session builds on and reinforces the previous session and focusses on a different aspect of your goal until the completion of treatment.
Hypnosis is a natural and wonderful way to release you from the hurt, pain and upsets of the past, and what motivates you for the future.
Invariably people experience being hypnotised slightly differently - some feel people very light, as if they were floating, others feel a sense of heaviness. Overall, generally people feel as if every muscle in their body is relaxing and it's a very pleasant, comfortable feeling.
The service Michael provides is completely confidential.
