If you’re feeling stuck in negative thoughts or struggling to change unhelpful habits, solution focused hypnotherapy could be the gentle, effective approach you need. Based on the latest neuroscience and positive psychology, this type of therapy helps you move forward—not backward—by focusing on solutions instead of problems.

But what exactly can solution focused hypnotherapy help with?

Here are some of the most common and effective uses.

1. 🧠 

Anxiety & Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Solution focused hypnotherapy for anxiety works by reducing the activity of the fight-or-flight response and promoting calm, rational thinking. It helps you:

• Let go of constant worry and overthinking
• Build confidence in handling everyday challenges
• Sleep better and feel more in control

It’s ideal for social anxiety, health anxiety, exam stress, and general overwhelm.

2. 😰 

Stress & Burnout

If you’re constantly exhausted, snappy, or tense, hypnotherapy can help you:

• Relax deeply and regularly
• Rebalance your mind and body
• Restore a sense of clarity and calm

Professionals, carers, and parents often benefit from this empowering approach.

3. 🚭 

Stop Smoking with Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a popular and effective way to quit smoking without relying on nicotine patches or medication. In just one intensive session, many clients:

• Identify subconscious triggers for smoking
• Strengthen their motivation to stay smoke-free
• Walk away with a clearer, healthier mindset

4. 🎢 

Low Mood & Mild to Moderate Depression

While not a replacement for medical care, hypnotherapy for low mood helps:

• Shift focus from what’s wrong to what’s possible
• Encourage healthy routines and uplifting habits
• Build small wins that boost long-term confidence

It’s often used alongside other support like GP care or counselling.

5. 🐜 

Phobias & Fears

Whether it’s a fear of flying, spiders, needles, or public speaking, solution focused hypnotherapy for phobias uses a tried-and-tested protocol that often resolves the issue in just 3–4 sessions.

No reliving traumatic memories—just calm, confident change.

6. 🧍‍♀️ 

Confidence & Self-Esteem

Build a healthier inner dialogue and take bold steps forward in life. Hypnotherapy can help with:

• Interview nerves
• Social anxiety
• Public speaking
• Body image and self-worth

Many clients feel more “like themselves” again after just a few sessions.

7. 🧒 

Children’s Hypnotherapy

Gentle and solution-focused, this approach is ideal for children and teens dealing with:

• Separation anxiety
• School worries
• Sleep issues
• Exam stress

Sessions are tailored to be age-appropriate, creative, and reassuring.

8. ⚖️ 

Weight Management & Healthy Habits

Rather than diets or willpower, hypnotherapy for weight loss helps you:

• Understand and change your relationship with food
• Feel more in control of cravings and triggers
• Improve motivation for movement and self-care

It’s about long-term change, not quick fixes.
