ABOUT HYPNOTHERPY
The process of hypnotherapy is to be guided into a relaxed state so that your full concentration can go towards making the changes you wish to. Hypnotherapy works as all the suggestions made by the therapist can be fully heard, taken in and understood by your conscious and subconscious mind whilst the nervous system is in a rested state. Our subconscious can be like a filing cabinet stored full of false thoughts, hypnotherapy can reorganise those files and therefore make significant changes in your life.
“I feel so much more confident,
the grounding techniques are
stopping the panic.”
"Kate explained everything really clearly in the consultation and gave me time to think it all through - I’m really looking forward to the first session."

Frequently Asked Questions

We will have online sessions using Google Meet or Whatsapp video. In Mallorca, there is the option to have the sessions face to face. There is no "magic trance" in hypnosis and you are aware of what is happening the whole time. Hypnosis is a natural state of being that we go into between 10 to 100 times every day. In our sessions, I will use progressive muscle relaxation, which is the most powerful and natural way to get you relaxed and to connect with the subconscious. Online sessions are as effective as in-person sessions. The key to a successful session is for the therapist to hold a welcoming and safe space that allows the client to simply relax. Changes can be made as daily external factors are shut out, and the conscious and subconscious mind can focus fully on the changes that need to be made.
In the first consultation, we talk through the changes you would like to make and I create a treatment plan for you.
During each session, we will start with a PMR to get your body totally relaxed and then I will deliver a personalised script. At the end of each session we evaluate how you are feeling and the progress made.

"You go into a trance"
You do not. You do go into a state of relaxation, the same as if you are watching a good TV show, or happy in a pleasant setting, but you are not in a "trance".
"You are not in control, the therapist is".
Absolutely not. The therapist guides the session but you are awake and aware the whole time. You can open your eyes and speak at any point. This is your therapy, and you are in control.
