Hypnosis can help you with any behaviour you want to improve or change. It may be beneficial in the management and treatment of a wide range of issues, including insomnia, depression, anxiety, fears and phobias, pain relief, psychosomatic illnesses, weight loss, anger issues and stress management. Hypnosis can also support you in overcoming addictions, building your confidence, or dealing with challenging changes in your life.
The term "hypnosis" comes from the Greek word hypnos, meaning "sleep." Hypnotherapists use exercises that bring about deep relaxation and an altered state of consciousness, also known as a trance. In this state, an individual’s mind is deeply focused, and particularly responsive to ideas or images. This does not mean that a hypnotist can control the person's mind or free will; on the contrary, hypnosis can actually teach people how to master their own states of awareness, allowing them to affect their own bodily functions and psychological responses.

Dreaming is the subjective experience of imaginary images, sounds, voices, thoughts and sensations during sleep. Dreams can vary from normal and mundane, to surreal and bizarre, and can often drive creative thought or trigger inspiration. Our daily waking activities also have an effect on our dreams.
Psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists all receive rigorous training in ethics, including the importance of maintaining confidentiality. With extremely rare exceptions – such as when a patient is a danger to him or herself (suicidal) or to another (homicidal) – therapists cannot disclose any personal information about their clients without prior permission (and this is usually done only in rare instances, such as when a client wishes the therapist to consult with his or her doctor). If you are considering therapy, but have concerns about confidentiality, it is good to discuss the issue up front, before beginning your first session. Whatever your question or concern, don't be afraid to ask!
