Everyone needs a certain amount of pressure to motivate them towards achieving goals. But, too much pressure that exceeds individuals' perceived ability to cope becomes stress. The consequential feelings of distress can negatively affect not only our physical health (leaving us prone to anxiety and depression, as well as to physical conditions such as heart disease, back pain, digestive problems and headaches) but all aspects of life and our enjoyment of it.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) defines stress as "the adverse reaction people have to excessive pressure or other types of demand placed upon them". Stress can result from any number and combination of sources such as work demands, insecurities, family expectations and financial concerns. Whatever the cause, prolonged exposure to stress can leave people feeling unwell, tense, irritable, intolerant of criticism, angry, out of control and unable to cope, sleep, switch off or relax. Often emotions, perceptions of self-confidence and feelings of self-worth are also affected.

We take a holistic approach to helping individuals manage stress more effectively, using deep relaxation hypnosis and stress hypnotherapy to counteract the negative physical and psychological effects of stress. With hypnotherapy counselling, individuals' specific stressors/perceived threats are identified and explored and constructive approaches to overcoming them taken.

"I enquired about hypnotherapy because I was still in a long period of work stress and generally feeling low and useless. I felt hopeful from the beginning even though there was no particular reason why it should work, but it was worth a go. Once I had my initial meeting and my programme was explained to me, I had every reason to believe that it would be successful, which I can now say it was. I now believe in myself and my confidence grows everyday, especially at work."

"I went into my first session with an open mind and was immediately impressed with how easy it was to achieve deep relaxation."
