Hypnotherapy FAQs

Q: Will I lose control when hypnotised?
A: This is a common misconception about hypnosis. Hypnotherapy is about the therapist and client working together, so that the client can be empowered to change their life. YOU contol your own level of hypnosis. YOU decide how relaxed you wish to be, and then allow yourself to go to that level.

Q: Can I be made to do something against my wishes?
A: No, if such an attempt were made you would either ignore it or come out of the hypnotised state. Nobody can be hypnotised against their will. Even if you are in a very deep state of hypnosis you will hear everything that is said.

Q: I am very strong minded, can I still be hypnotised?
A: Great, you will be able to use this ability to focus very intensely and achieve the changes you wish to make. Some people only go into a very light level of hypnosis, and may not feel hypnotised at all. For therapeutic goals, this is all that is needed.

Q: Can I get stuck in the hypnotised state?
A: It is impossible to get stuck. Remember hypnosis is simply a natural state of deep relaxation, which people can leave at will.

Q: Will I blurt out secrets when hypnotised?
A: No you are always in control. You cannot be forced to do or say anything you don't want to.

Q: You don't have any testimonials on your site, is there a reason for this?
A: Yes this in accordance with advice from my professional body, APHP, to protect confidentiality of clients.

Q: What's different about using hypnotherapy for weight control?
A: Its the end of dieting. Diets don't work for most people. Typically most regain the weight they have lost within two years and a little more besides. Ann works to help clients radically rethink their own self image, by letting go of negative thinking and releasing self destructive thought patterns. When self esteem is increased, it becomes easier to move to healthier eating on a permanent basis. When this happens, excess weight simply disappears.
