Hypnotherapy can be used to treat   anxiety, phobias, substance abuse    including tobacco, sexual dysfunction, undesirable spontaneous behaviors, and bad habits. It can be used to help improve sleep, learning disorders, communication, and relationship issues. Hypnotherapy can aid in pain   management   and help resolve medical conditions such as digestive disorders, skin issues, and gastrointestinal side effects of   pregnancy  and chemotherapy.

Hypnotherapy utilizes the heightened awareness of the   hypnotic state   to help you explore your issues more deeply. You will be guided by the hypnotherapist to visualize yourself in a state of peacefulness and relaxation, even when confronting the object of your fears.   During hypnotherapy, you remain in control. It is not possible for anyone to force you to do anything against your will, even under hypnosis. You will be tuned into the work at hand, and so may not pay attention to your surroundings, but you will always be in charge of your own actions, behaviors, and statements.

Hypnotherapy is not the same as being “knocked out.” You will remember the things that occur during your hypnotic state, you will not be asleep or unconscious and you will be able to break the hypnotic trance at any time.

Your hypnotherapist may make gentle suggestions for behavior changes that can help you conquer your issues. For example, you may be taught to see yourself as a supportive advisor during your phobic reactions, thus learning to trust yourself and your ability to get through the situation. You may be taught certain   cognitive-behavioral  coping skills, such as   guided imagery , that you can use when confronting your fear. You may even be encouraged to talk about the first time you experienced the phobia and how you felt in that moment.
