Hypnosis is a natural and focused state of attention—similar to those moments when you’re completely absorbed in a book, a film, music, or deep in thought while driving. During this state, your mind tunes out distractions and becomes more open to positive suggestions and new perspectives.

Many of us go in and out of trance every day, often without even realising it. Whether you’re daydreaming or fully immersed in something you enjoy, you’re experiencing a form of trance. It’s a completely natural state for humans—and in fact, all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The hypnotherapist simply guides the process, but the experience is created by your own mind.

This trance-like state is often compared to the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) phase of sleep, when the brain is highly active, yet the body is deeply relaxed. It’s in this receptive, focused state that hypnotherapy becomes a powerful tool for change.

In Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, hypnosis is used to support positive change by focusing on your strengths, resources, and the future you want to create—rather than dwelling on the past.

During the talking part of the session, you connect with your own intellectual resources for change and create an achievable way forward that is goal – orientated, then you’re guided into a calm, relaxed trance state. While you rest comfortably, your subconscious mind becomes more responsive to helpful suggestions that support your well-being and personal growth. Because this process works in harmony with how the brain naturally learns and adapts, it helps reinforce positive changes in thinking, feeling, and behaviour.

It’s a safe, effective, and empowering approach that helps you move forward with clarity, confidence, and resilience.
