Are ghosts from the past underlying your difficulties?
Whatever is troubling you, old traumas are often part of the problem, causing long-term stress which makes everything more difficult to cope with. Traumas create memories which are alive and painful, making you wince at any reminder. You may be restricting your life to avoid arousing these old fears.Traumas range from car accidents, war, assault, abuse to bullying, humiliation, rejection, bad relationships or breakups, medical procedures -- bad experiences of any kind. They can leave you victim to anything from nightmares, flashbacks and panic attacks to phobias, general anxiety, depression and tension. Suspect trauma if emotions like fear or anger, panic or sadness, seem to suddenly come out of the blue.
Human Givens hypnotherapy for trauma is gentle and painless. You won't have to talk at length -- or even at all, if you don't want to -- about the incidents involved. It's not necessary to 'confront' or 'face' the issue. Often just one or two sessions of therapy is enough. Afterwards, the issue has become just a memory like any other. You feel better and brighter, with more mental energy, and a calmer perspective. Mental problems and unwanted behaviours are just about always worsened by stress, so once traumas are eased so are they.
Take the first steps towards ending trauma
Try hypnotherapy to free yourself from trauma, post-traumatic stress and 'subclinical traumas'. If it's not convenient to see me for face-to-face therapy in Willesden Green, North West London, or Crawford Street W1, phone therapy could be the answer for you.
War veterans
If you're a war veteran, free counselling for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and other stress symptoms can be available using the very effective Human Givens approach from myself, or, outside north west London, from other therapists throughout the UK working with the Resolution Project -- a new approach for military PTSD. See them on Facebook.
