From a client’s point of view, hypnotherapy often feels like a deeply relaxed state, like when you are absorbed in a good book or film or the moments just before falling asleep. You may experience a sense of calmness and heightened focus, with your attention directed inward. Some people describe sensations such as heaviness or lightness in their body, or a feeling of floating. During the session, you remain aware of your surroundings and can hear the therapist's voice, but your attention is primarily focused on the therapist’s suggestions and your internal experience.
Yes, hypnotherapy is generally safe when conducted by a trained and certified professional. It is a non-invasive method that can help with a variety of issues without the need for medication.

No, hypnotherapy cannot make you do anything against your will or ethical beliefs. The myths about mind control often come from stage hypnosis, which is very different from clinical hypnotherapy. In therapeutic settings, the focus is on helping you achieve your goals.
Hypnosis is a willing and collaborative therapy, if someone attempts to hypnotise you against your wishes, it simply won’t work. Therefore, if you harbour strong scepticism or fear, the effectiveness of hypnosis may be compromised. Your openness and willingness play a pivotal role in this transformative process.
In the UK, hypnotherapists should have training from a reputable institution affiliated with a professional body and be registered with one such as the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH) or the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). This ensures they adhere to professional standards and ethics.
A Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) is considered by many to be the gold standard in hypnotherapy training.
Hypnotherapy may be suitable if you are looking for a complementary approach to address specific issues or improve certain aspects of your life. It’s important to have an initial consultation with a hypnotherapist to discuss your goals and any concerns you might have.
