Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a modern, evidence-based approach that combines elements of Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with clinical hypnosis to help people make positive changes in their lives. It’s future-oriented and emphasises a person’s strengths and resources rather than focusing heavily on past problems or traumas.
Here’s a breakdown of what it involves:
1. Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
Focuses on goals, not problems.
Encourages clients to visualize their preferred future.
Uses techniques like the miracle question and scaling to identify progress.
Builds on what’s already working, even if it’s just small steps.
2. Hypnosis
A relaxed, trance-like state (like driving from A to B).
Helps bypass the critical conscious mind and access the subconscious.
Reinforces positive suggestions and imagery that align with the client’s goals.
3. The Process
The therapist helps the client define what they want to achieve.
Each session includes talking therapy (solution-focused questions), followed by hypnosis.
Clients are often given audio recordings to use between sessions to reinforce progress.
4. What It’s Used For
Anxiety, stress, and depression
Confidence and self-esteem
Phobias and fears
Habits like smoking or va**ng
Sleep problems and performance enhancement as well as so much more!
It’s generally a short-term therapy and is considered empowering, positive and forward-looking.
