Step Two
Step Two : Contact to make your first appointment  online or in person and we will help you to identify your unhealthy Beliefs.

Step Three
You need to  change these  beliefs to healthy beliefs in the next appointment ( We can  help you with this)

Step Four
Install the healthy beliefs into your subconscious. You will receive a CD or audio download to help you to do this. You will then have a follow up session to see how you are doing

 Beliefs can be healthy or unhealthy. Unhealthy beliefs lead to unhealthy thought, feelings, behaviour and symptoms.

Unhealthy beliefs are rigid, unrealistic, don’t make sense and don’t help you. Unhealthy beliefs are usually in the form of musts, should or have to.

Take for example someone at work whose unhealthy belief is “I must complete all my work, if I don’t , its awful, like the end of the world, I can’t stand it, I am useless and a complete failure.

The person with this belief is going to feel stressed for the majority of the time as pressure at work often means that we cannot always complete everything. A healthier belief will create a different response, they are not likely to suffer from stress.

These four steps  above constitute Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. It  is a structured process that involves uncovering your subconscious unhealthy beliefs, changing them to healthier beliefs, which results in healthier thoughts, feelings behaviour and symptoms.

Unhealthy beliefs are rigid, unrealistic, don’t make sense and don’t help you. Healthy beliefs are flexible, logical, realistic and help you Hypnotherapy adds a powerful dynamic in that it weakens the unhealthy beliefs and strengthens the healthy beliefs. The process also involves tasks and challenges that you carry out between the sessions. CBH is a proactive proven therapy.
