Where do I go if I want to find a hypnotherapist in London?

The best place to start is to go to a reputable hypnotherapy centre–for example London Hypnotherapy UK or another suitable organization.

What is the difference between a hypnotist and a hypnotherapist?

Generally, a stage hypnotist describes himself as a hypnotist while a trained therapist who uses hypnotherapy in the consulting room describes himself as a hypnotherapist. Hypnotists have no concern for the well being of their subjects; their only concern is to make fun of them and to provide entertainment for the audiance. A hypnotherapist is only concerned with the welfare of the client.

How does psychotherapy come into play here?

Technically, hypnosis is not a therapy on its own: it should be combined with another type of therapy–CBT, psychodynamic psychotherapy, humanistic therapy, NLP, amongst others. At London Hypnotherapy UK, the approach is to combine psychotherapy with hypnosis. This form of treatment comes under the banner of integrative psychotherapy (Although this is a generic term applied to the combining of all sorts of therapy).

How do I book an appointment?

One used to have to ask for a referral letter from one’s general practitioner; however, but now, all one has to do is to phone up for an appointment.

The number is as follows: 0207 467 8564.

Hypnotherapy can be used to treat a large number of disorders. The following is a list of some of them:

phobias, stress, panic attacks, performance anxiety, PTSD, alcholism, sexual dysfuncction, sleeping problems (including insomnia), IBS, exam stress, migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), grief, depression, eating disorders (including anorexia and bulimia), OCD.
