About Pax Hypnotherapy

Hi, I'm Rachael, a former nurse now re-trained in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH).  SFH works on the premise that we all have the resources within us to overcome difficulties and obstacles in our lives and to cope better when difficult events occur.  By combining talking (psychotherapeutic) methods with hypnotherapy, SFH facilitates your accessing these resources, helping you to get the very best out of yourself. In engaging with a course of hypnotherapy, you will learn how anxiety and fear are created and, through adopting  a more positive mindset and experiencing the transformative power of trance, will be able to take constructive steps each day towards achieving your goals.

SFH is grounded in up to date neuroscience. The approach is explained in detail at your initial consultation for which there is no charge (this takes around 40-60 minutes). A course of therapy is usually in the region of 6-12 one hour sessions, the exceptions being smoking which is one extended session and phobias - generally three sessions.

Many day to day problems and difficulties can be effectively reduced if we tackle the issues that are going on 'upstream'.  I have a particular interest in helping people suffering with chronic anxiety, who feel that they are somehow standing in their own way.  Getting out of the cycle of anxiety frees up your energy and focus to make progress in other more rewarding areas of your life.
