Hypnotherapy for Children
​HYPNOTHERAPY FOR CHILDREN
​
IN A WARM, FRIENDLY, CHILD CENTRED WAY, WITH SCRIPTS TAILORED TO YOUR CHILD'S FAVOURITE CHARACTERS, COLOURS OR THEMES, WE CAN WORK TO HELP YOUR CHILD OVERCOME A RANGE OF ISSUES.
​
I OFFER A FREE INITIAL CONSULTATION WITH YOU AND YOUR CHILD SO YOU CAN SEE HOW I WORK AND IF HYPNOTHERAPY IS FOR YOU.
​
Children respond very well to hypnotherapy. You may notice how easily your child becomes entranced by stores or programmes and it is just his state of deep relaxation that is used in hypnosis.
​
It is recommended that parents are present, either in he room or outside of the room during therapy. Where the parent is outside the room full recordings will be provided.
​
I have undertaken additional training to work with children offer hypnotherapy for children 10-17 for:
​
Social Anxiety
Absence from school due to anxiety
Exam, tests and 11+ nerves and performance
Phobias: dentist, needles, doctors to name but a few
Skin picking, hair pulling (eating) and other compulsive habits.
​
Just like adults children:
​
HAVE TO BE MOTIVATED TO CHANGE - IE THE PROBLEM HAS TO BE A PROBLEM FOR THEM NOT JUST OTHERS
​
CANNOT GET STUCK IN HYPNOSIS
​
CANNOT BE MADE TO DO ANYTHING AGAINS THEIR WILL OR VALUES AS THEY UNDERSTAND THEM
​
CAN BRING THEMSELVES OUT OF HYPNOSIS AT ANY TIME
​
Full written consent is required from parent or guardian. Teenagers mid teens can be deemed Gillick competent and may wish to drive heir own therapy journey. This is something you should allow for and consider your reaction to.
