Maidstone Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy Practice
From an early age, I was fascinated by hypnosis.
I remember watching a BBC documentary on hypnotherapy as a teenager and was truly in awe at the enormous potential of hypnosis. For me, the documentary removed the mystery of hypnosis and clearly showed how, when applied properly, it could transform lives.
My first experience of performing hypnotherapy occurred whilst I was researching hypnosis at my local library a couple of years later. After digesting a mountain of theoretical papers, I attempted to put what I had learnt into practice by removing a friend’s lifelong phobia of spiders. Before the appointment, even the sound of the word ‘spider’ would be enough to send my friend into a panic. After the appointment (with neither of us really knowing quite how well it had worked), we visited an exotic pet shop in Maidstone and he was quite happy to handle a large ‘Grammostola Rosea’ Tarantula spider in his hand. It would be fair to say that I was just as astounded as he was, that I’d been able to remove such an intense fear in under an hour.
It was at this point I decided that I would like to make a career from practicing hypnotherapy.
Several years later I formally trained as a hypnotherapist. This was invaluable experience as, although I was competent as an amateur hypnotherapist, during my training I managed to collate the individual aspects of hypnosis I had learnt independently into an entire holistic approach. After I had qualified, I joined the General Hypnotherapy Register and was awarded the General Qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice. After five years of continual practice, my qualification was upgraded to the Senior Qualification in Hypnotherapy Practice. At present I am considering studying for a PHd.
I live in Canterbury City centre and when I am not helping people in private appointments, I fill the remainder of my time with studying, amateur boxing, keeping fit and performing mentalism.
