The European Society of Hypnosis comprises 32 societies taken from 17 countries in Europe. Members come from a medical background, although there are also some dentists, psychologists, psychotherapists and other health care professionals who have a legitimate reason for using hypnosis in clinical practice. There are also a number of academics who are members of this organization. The ESH promotes and maintains the highest of standards across Europe. Further, members are keen to keep the use of hypnosis up-to-date. The European Society is closely affiliated to the British Society of Clinical and Academic Hypnosis (BSCAH), and there are members who give workshops and presentations in order to develop understanding of the use of hypnosis in clinical practice today. Contemporary Hypnosis & Integrative Therapy is the official journal for both BSCAH and ESH.      

 

 

 

On the 6th of June 2011, Dr Kraft will be giving a presentation on the use of hypnosis for smoking cessation. David will present a case study which illustrates that hypnosis can be used effectively to help individuals stop smoking in one hour. The case study looks at a 33 year old man who had been a heavy smoker for over 20 years. He gave up smoking after one hour and did not smoke one cigarette for then on. At the year follow up, Philip, was still smoke free.

Dr Kraft will talk about the importance of building rapport while booking the session and building expectation on the phone. He will then describe his unique approach to treatment which incorporates the use of aversion, chaining suggestions, poetic repetition, response sets, split screen imagery and the ‘Non Smoker Walk’.

Smoking Hypnotherapy with Dr Kraft is a highly effective form off treatment which has no side effects.

On 6th of June Dr David Kraft will be giving a presentation on his approach to smoking cessation. Smoking has a deleterious effect on nearly every organ in the body. Dr Kraft has spent a considerable time helping many people give up smoking; many individuals that have given up smoking say that they feel the immediate effects of being a non smoker. David has had a considerable success helping people to give up smoking and many have given up in one session. The smoking cessation programme is a complete abstinence programme. It is important that clients work together with the therapist and make a verbal contract that they will never smoke a cigarette again. The treatment is a powerful one. It reduces or, in some cases, eliminates cravings, and the use of aversion is a particularly helpful strategy. Dr Kraft also uses a split screen imagery approach which encourages clients to choose the healthy option, and to give up smoking.

David Kraft is a fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine and a member of the Hypnosis and Psychosomatic Medicine Section. He is also a member of the British Society of Clinical and Academic Hypnosis (BSCAH). David has a diploma and an advanced diploma in clinical hypnosis and a diploma in clinical psychology. He has published several articles in the field of hypnosis and integrated psychotherapy in both international and national journals. David runs a successful practice in Harley Street.

Dear hypnotherapist

I am looking for a psychotherapist as well as a hypnotherapist, and I wondered whether you might be the answer because you do both. I looked for a centre for Psychotherapy, and I centre for hypnotherapy and I found this one–London Psychotherapy, and I was impressed by the webbsite. How many psychotherapists use hypnosis here in London? There can’t be many. I have been suffering depression for some time now and I also have terrible problems with all sorts of aches and pains around my body. I worry about my legs and whether I have got some sort of muscular disease. I get thrush. I worry that I am not producing the right amount of fluid in my vagina, and this really worries me because I am on 30. There is masses of fluid and I have no problems masturbating, or having sex, but I still worry. When I am down, and really depressed, I think about suicide, and I also worry about my eyes. My eyes itch all the time, and I can’t stop thinking about them. I need a psychotherapist or a psychiatrist now. I also get headaches and feelings of being bloated, and period pains, and pains in my anus. But all of these symptoms alternate with each other, and it is driving me mad. I heard that hypnotherapy can help to control pain, but I realize now that a lot of these worries are psychological. I need to find a good counsellor or psychotherapist who can help me with these problems. I want to talk to somebody who is caring and considerate. I have been taking anti depressants for my depression, but this form of treatment does not help. I need a psychotherapist! I also need a hypnotherapist, and one in London. My depression has worsened recently, and so many friends of mine have seen good results with hypnotherapists here in central London. Also, another friend of mine trained as a counselor and then started to use hypnotherapy on herself, and she has seen great results too. She is her own psychotherapist now, and her own hypnotherapist. How cool is that?! I also looked at this new ‘In Treatment’ programme on HBO, and thought that this is exactly what I need. In Treatment is a wonderful programme, and each client is given space to work out their problems. Are you like the person in ‘In Treatment?’ If you are caring and like the person in the television programme, please give me a session. I want to see you every week, and watch how I develop. Wow-In Treatment. This is so exciting, and empowering. I feel that my depression is going already.

Dear Sir

I am looking for a hypnotherapist in London who can help me with my problems. I am an orphan, and have suffered from nightmares all my life. I have an anxiety problem and this gets worse at night. I am so scared all the time, and I don’t know what to do. My anxiety is sometimes a panic attack, and sometimes I feel like I am falling. I feel out of control, and alone. I feel that no one loves me and that no one cares at all about how I feel. No one does. Please make sure that I am ok and care for me. I need to speak to someone, and I need time in the hypnotherapy to explore my problems. Is that something that you do?

Dear Dr David Kraft

My name is J. I am 14 stone and I have had two babies. I am now 42 and decided to have a hysterectomy last month because of what my doctor said. I went to a specialist in London and he performed the operation under a general anaesthetic. I want to take off weight so much. I was 10 stone five years ago before I had my two daughters and I want to take off that weight. Now, I am so depressed too. I know that the operation was a life changing event for a woman, but I feel less of a woman. I still want sex and everything, but I somehow feel less attractive to my husband. I feel fat, and non-sexy, and this feeling has worsened since I had the operation. I want another operation now to get rid of the fat, but I know that this would probably be a bad idea. Can we use hypnotherapy to help me with this problem? I heard that weight loss hypnotherapy was very effective for woman.

The fact that I have had a hysterectomy won’t effect my ability to take off weight, will it? I was told by my doctor that each person is different and that I should be fine, and still have good sex. I have had good sex since the oiperation, although it took some time to recover from this trauma.

I took a lot of care after the operation. Many surgeons agree that six to eight weeks is sufficient time to recover from the operation: I did not have sex for three months even though I was dying for it.

I worried that I would get chronic pelvic pain, but I didn’t.

Please help me take off weight and feel better about myself. If hypnotherapy is useful, please help me.

Dear Dr Kraft

I have been looking at your website–in fact the website of London Hypnotherapy UK–and I am really keen to see you at 10 Harley Street. How many people work at London Hypnotherapy UK? I would really like to see you if possible because I need you to help me and I want the best hypnotherapist possible. When I come for the first session, will we be able to use hypnotherapy/hypnosis straight away? My friend went to see a hypnotherapist last year for her eating problems–she eats too much chocolate–and she has now taken off nearly a stone. It sounds like hypnotherapy is really very powerful indeed. My mother also went to see a hypnotherapist in Cardiff near where she works and she has found that she likes to keep seeing him for top up regularly–well, once every three or four months. She finds it really helpful to do this from time to time. She suffers from IBS. Also a really good friend of mine came over from Saudi Arabia especially to see you and he is now so much better. He had all sorts of problems and he is so much happier now having seen you. Thank you so much for that!

I also have problems with IBS. I feel bloated and I sometimes have constipation and sometimes suffer from diarrhea.

Many thanks

Del

Dear Del

Of course I can help you and I can also offer you ‘top up sessions’ if you feel that they would be helpful. I am the therapist at London Hypnotherapy UK. We will use hypnotherapy at the first session when you feel that it is appropriate to do so.
