What is Hypnotherapy? Understanding the Power of Your Subconscious Mind
Is hypnotherapy for me?
Hypnotherapy is a gentle, effective way of working with the subconscious mind — the part of you that holds your automatic thoughts, habits, memories, and emotional patterns. When we try to change with willpower alone, we’re often working at a surface level. Hypnotherapy allows us to go deeper.
At CHC Therapy, hypnotherapy is always safe, respectful, and client-led. You remain fully in control throughout the process. It’s not about being “put under” — instead, it’s about entering a calm, focused state where your mind is more open to positive suggestion and healing.
In this relaxed state, we can work together to:
Gently explore the root causes of unwanted behaviours or beliefs
Release limiting patterns and emotional blocks
Reframe past experiences in a safe and supported way
Strengthen confidence, self-worth, and emotional balance
What Can Hypnotherapy Help With?
Hypnotherapy can be used to support a wide range of issues, including:
Anxiety and stress
Low self-esteem or confidence
Fears and phobias
Sleep difficulties
Emotional eating or unwanted habits
Public speaking, performance anxiety, and self-doubt
Inner child work and emotional healing
What Does a Session Feel Like?
Many clients describe hypnotherapy as deeply relaxing — like guided meditation with a purpose. You’ll be gently guided into a calm state of awareness, similar to the feeling just before you fall asleep or when you’re “zoned out” in a daydream.
You won’t lose control or be made to do anything you don’t want to do. You can speak, move, or open your eyes at any time. The experience is collaborative, respectful, and focused entirely on your wellbeing.
Why Choose Hypnotherapy at CHC Therapy?
We understand that stepping into something unfamiliar can feel vulnerable. That’s why we offer hypnotherapy with deep care, trauma-informed awareness, and your comfort as the priority. Sessions are always tailored to you — your pace, your goals, your story.
You already hold the wisdom and strength within you. Hypnotherapy simply helps you access it.
