Treatments (continued)
Listed below are the three problems David is most often asked about:
An outline of the relevant therapy for each situation is shown here,
but if you would like further details, please don't hesitate to
contact David. Session length: Most sessions last for approximately 50
minutes, though, in common with all good therapists, David does not work
'to the clock'. If a little longer time is needed, then a little
longer time is given. Therefore, if you should find yourself waiting
for a few moments after your appointment is due to start, please be
patient.
Quit Smoking
Therapy
This therapy is, quite simply, the best available. The success
rate is far higher than you might imagine - in fact, some surveys
have shown it to be definitely one of the most effective methods of
quitting. No drugs are used and there are no unpleasant side
effects; many people experience no withdrawal symptoms and little or
no craving, so if you're determined to kick the habit, it REALLY CAN
HELP. A single 90 minute session is all that is necessary.
Anxiety and
Stress
Hypnosis is of enormous help in reducing stress and/or anxiety
levels, though there are two distinctly different methods of
treatment. Whether you need help for a 'one-off' situation like a
driving test, for example, or a more persistent and possibly
deeper-rooted problem, Hypnosis can help you. The best method for
any individual can really only be determined by consultation, many
people finding that two or three sessions, spread over a month or
so, are sufficient.
Fears and
Phobias
When you have a fear or phobia that you really cannot get to
grips with however hard you try, no amount of well-intentioned
'help' from friends or family is likely to solve the problem - it
can even make things worse. Although it may seem impossible to you
now, hypnotherapy can help to remove the problem so that you could
simply forget it ever existed in the first place. Using only the
right sort of therapy means that you won't replace one fear with
another, either.
It is often believed that the only way to overcome deep-rooted
fears is to somehow 'face up' to the feared experience. You may rest
assured that this is simply not the case and you will therefore not
be subjected to any type of exposure therapy.
