What Is Hypnotherapy for Anxiety?

And how does Hypnotherapy help with Anxiety?

Hypnotherapy is a deeply relaxing and therapeutic process that guides you into a calm, focused state of awareness which is commonly known as a hypnotic trance which sounds out of the ordinary but it's a state you access every day between being awake and asleep or if you daydream.  In this state, your subconscious becomes more receptive to calming, empowering suggestions and you are able to more easily track the origin of your discomfort. Unlike what you see in stage hypnosis, you remain fully aware and in control at all times. It's just like being in that lovely dreamy state when you'd rather stay in bed a little longer, you can pull yourself awake and answer the door it you need to but you'd rather not!

Hypnotherapy allows you to rewire fear-based thought patterns, explore emotional triggers, and cultivate a sense of safety, trust in oneself and steadiness.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy for Anxiety Relief

Anxiety can affect every area of your life. How you manage your workload, how you show up in relationships, how able you are to rest and sleep. Hypnotherapy helps treat the root causes of anxiety and equip you with lifelong tools. Here’s what you can expect:
 

•    Hypnotherapy Calms the Nervous System
Guiding you into hypnosis activates the parasympathetic nervous system, the rest and digest response. Slows your heart rate, tense muscles relax, and stress hormones subside.

•    Shifts Anxious Thinking Patterns
Reframe subconscious beliefs from “I’m not safe” to “I can handle this” and shift from panic to presence.

•    Improves Sleep and Restorative Rest
With hypnotherapy we can help you to reduce night time overthinking so you might find it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep.

•    Enhances Emotional Resilience
The more trauma responses resolve the more control you gain over your emotions.  With me you will learn how to calm using breathing techniques, visualization, and we can create “anchors” to manage stress and daily challenges.

•    Promotes Long-Term Change
Self-hypnosis tools help you maintain progress and reinforce positive habits beyond therapy.

What to Expect in a Hypnotherapy Session

Your comfort is my top priority. Each session begins with an open, supportive conversation. I hold a space without judgement or pressure. During our conversation it's likely there will be something that I sense holds an emotional charge or links back to old trauma. We will agree on where to begin the focus of the session and I will guide you into a relaxed, receptive state using breathwork and imagery. We create a this safe space within which to explore underlying thought patterns. I have many techniques to draw upon but often find approaching from an inner child healing, parts therapy / IFS (Internal Family Systems) feels an intuitive and natural way to reprogram anxious responses by meeting the needs of the younger self that were not met in childhood in this subconscious state. You’ll leave each session with a slightly new perspective and often with tools to use in everyday life, empowering your growth between visits.

Is Hypnotherapy Safe? 

Yes, absolutely. You are always in control. Hypnotherapy is not about reliving trauma or being “put under.” Instead, it’s a collaborative process that moves at your pace. You’ll never be asked to explore anything you're not comfortable with. Like any therapy, if you want to make progress you do need to be willing to face the uncomfortable and commit to the process, returning for regular sessions determined to change your quality of life. I invite you into this work and hold space for you to do it, I do not do it for you.
Sessions are, personalized, move at your own pace; focused on safety and healing.
