Hypnotherapy

WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?

Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapeutic tool used to effect real change in the lives of people like you and I. With care, this method can modify unhealthy coping mechanisms, shift internalized oppressive beliefs, and increase confidence in order to make impactful changes in your life.

Hypnotherapy is a natural, yet altered state of mind, where the critical factor of the conscious mind is relaxed and selective thinking is amplified. Selective thinking (focused concentration), is the ability to rest your mind on a selected idea. This helps to facilitate communication between the conscious and the subconscious mind.

(VERY) BRIEF HISTORY OF HYPNOSIS

Hypnotic practices have played important roles in religion and religious ceremonies beginning 4000 years ago. Today we have chairs that recline in comfortable offices, but thousands of years ago in Egypt, there were something called ‘Sleep Temples’ (also known as dream temples). Sleep temples were places people went for healing, like hospitals, for physical and mental ailments. Patients were put into a trance-like or hypnotic state to analyze their dreams in order to determine treatment. Sleep temples also existed in Babylon, Persia, Britain, Scandinavia, America, Africa, India, and China.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

When we break down the word Hypnotherapy, we can see that the first part, hypno (or hypnos) is a Greek word meaning ‘sleep’ and the latter part, therapy, means the “treatment of disease or disorders”. So, hypnotherapy is a method used to help heal or treat through a sleep-like or altered state.

The American Psychological Association (APA) endorses hypnosis as a branch of psychology. The APA’s definition for hypnosis has been revised over the years; however, the most recent definition is “a state of consciousness involving focused attention and reduced peripheral awareness characterized by an enhanced capacity for response to suggestion”.

CAN I BE HYPNOTIZED?

The ability to go into a hypnotic state has been a practice for centuries. Hypnosis is natural which means most people can go into some level of trance. In fact, 25% of people enter a light trance; 45% enter a medium trance; 25% can go into a deep trance; and 2% – 5 % of the population have difficulty going into trance. The good news is a light trance is all that is needed for hypnotherapy to be effective. Everyone experiences hypnosis at one time or another, like when driving down a familiar road one minute, and then arriving at your destination without recalling how you got there.

HOW IS IT USED?

Although I have worked with individuals, families and groups as a social worker since 1991, I began my training in hypnotherapy in 2013. Since then, I have received hundreds of training hours in various hypnotic methods and have supported countless clients over the past ten years on their hypnosis
journey. Several modalities include my hypnotherapy work, including Neuroscience, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Mindfulness Meditative Practices, Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Anti-Oppressive, and Mind/Body Therapies. I am a National Board Certified Fellow in Clinical Hypnotherapy, which mandates annual continuing education to maintain the highest professional development and practice standards.
