What comes to mind when you hear the word "hypnosis"?
Does it spark curiosity, or do you find yourself wondering what it truly entails?
For many, the concept of hypnosis conjures up images of someone being placed in a trance by a swinging watch or spirals, perhaps from a movie or TV show where people seem to fall under the control of a mysterious figure. However, it's essential to understand that staged hypnosis is purely performance. It’s vastly different from Clinical Hypnosis, which is a legitimate therapeutic tool.
While misconceptions about hypnosis abound, the reality is that it’s a natural state we all experience daily. You don’t lose consciousness or control; instead, you remain fully aware. Think about moments when you’re daydreaming, engrossed in a book, driving, or absorbed in your work. Time seems to fly by in these instances because you’re in a naturally occurring state of deep focus... this is much like hypnosis.
Clinical Hypnosis can be described as a peaceful, creative, and productive state of inner focus.
Research shows that hypnosis can enhance the effectiveness of treatments. By tapping into your inner strengths and natural abilities, you may find that the outcomes of your therapy are achieved faster.
Consider willpower for a moment. How many of us have resolved to go to the gym more regularly, only to lose motivation after a few weeks? Although we logically know what we should be doing, it can feel like something is holding us back. This is often our unconscious mind at work. Our unconscious behaviours and thought patterns guide much of what we do, often outside of our immediate awareness.
Hypnosis is a tool used in therapy, rather than a standalone therapy itself. It helps you focus on your internal strengths and amplifies your existing resources. When we work together, I’ll guide you to connect with the healthiest and strongest parts of yourself.
Often, simply seeing your problems from a new perspective or gaining greater self awareness can help you manage and overcome your challenges more effectively. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, you can learn to approach life with greater calmness. You’ll develop the ability to focus on what’s going right, instead of what’s wrong, and move towards what you truly want, rather than away from what you don’t.
How to Choose the Right Hypnosis Therapy
With so many self-hypnosis recordings and “one size fits all” approaches available online, it can be challenging to know where to start. Working with a therapist who is accredited, licensed, and registered is crucial for ensuring you receive the right type of hypnosis tailored to your needs.
At Jenesis Psychotherapy, we offer personalised Clinical Hypnosis based on the Eriksonian approach (developed by Milton H. Erikson, a renowned psychiatrist and psychotherapist). Through understanding your unique strengths and skills, we guide you into a deeply focused state that enhances your learning. You’ll gain a clearer understanding of what’s within your control and improve your ability to manage life's uncertainties.
