In truth, if you can put into words the problem, challenge or issue and can tell me what it is you want to achieve, book a free discovery call and we can discuss the possibilities.
How does RTT® work?
RTT® focuses on identifying how, where and when unhelpful beliefs and behaviours were formed. It then utilises a set of tools and works with the principles of neuroplasticity to enable the creation of new neural pathways in mind. This helps the client uncover the root cause of why they feel the way they do, then supports the client in transforming their current issue and moving forward with a new set of more beneficial and positive beliefs.
What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a very relaxed and comfortable state. It is a natural state of mind that we go in and out of many times every day. Think of a time when you were driving a familiar route and you arrive at your destination unable to recall the traffic lights and roundabouts you navigated on the way, that is a light trance state. Or that daydreaming state where you in the room, but your mind is elsewhere, you were in a trance state. Or the slightly dreamlike state you enter between waking and sleeping.
Clients do not sleep during the hypnosis, they can hear everything that is said and they are aware of everything going on around them.
Will I still be in control when hypnotised??
Hypnosis is not putting you to sleep; it’s putting your nervous system in a relaxed state. You will remain fully aware of everything going on around you, and at the same time you are in a very relaxed state where your conscious mind does not interfere. As you enter this relaxed state, you can turn your attention inwards and it is possible to access your subconscious mind.
It is not possible for me to make you do anything that you would not be happy to do outside hypnosis, this form of hypnosis is relaxed and conversational and is absolutely nothing like stage hypnosis that you may have encountered in a stage show or in a holiday resort.
Can I get stuck in the hypnotised state?
No, it is absolutely not possible to get stuck in a hypnotised state. This is a natural state that you go in and out of during the course of a normal day.
How long does a session last and how many will I need?
The hypnosis session lasts about 2 hours.
Generally I advise clients that they will only need one session for a single presenting problem/issue, however often clients will return for a session on a different issue. Occasionally, more than one session is needed for an individual presenting problem, but this is generally the exception. I can advise further on this once I have met you and we have decided on the presenting problem.
Can I work with you remotely?
Yes, absolutely you can. Some people prefer to come and sit with me in person and I absolutely welcome that. I have a beautiful private room situated in the back garden of my home in Birstall.
However, many clients are not with in travelling distance or feel more comfortable and relaxed in their own surroundings, in this case, I am delighted to say that the results and effectiveness are just as good whether you choose to work with me in person or remotely.
Is there an RTT® Code of Conduct?
