FAQs

What is Hypnotherapy and how does it feel?

It’s a gentle therapy that harnesses deep focus and relaxation to facilitate change and healing through the power of your imagination and guided mental imagery. 

It feels like a deep, soothing relaxation where your mind becomes more open and focused. You may experience a sense of calm and heightened awareness, similar daydreaming. It’s a gentle and peaceful experience that allows you to tap into your inner resources for positive change.
