Hypnotherapy for Anxiety in Ely and Newmarket: What To Expect, How It Works and Why It Helps

So many people continue to struggle with anxiety. It can take over your thinking, drain your energy and limit what you feel able to do. It’s the main thing I help people with and I get asked a lot of questions about my hypnotherapy for anxiety in Ely and Newmarket (and online!).

Anxiety can make even the simplest of tasks feel overwhelming. There is the constant worry, intrusive thoughts and sense of dread about what could happen. Your mind can fix on one thing and think of all the potential worst cases. Or it can race through a multitude of things so quickly that you struggle to grasp hold of anything. And there are all the uncomfortable physical sensations of anxiety. You feel a tightness in your chest, your heart can race, you feel hot, tense, anxious and restless. It can affect your sleep and appetite. And the ripples of anxiety can have a negative impact upon relationships, friendships, home life and your work.

Anxiety can leave you feeling trapped in a cycle of tension, discomfort and unease. Those anxious thoughts lead to more anxious feelings that lead to even more worry. Even when you feel a bit better there is the lurking dread that your anxiety will resurface.

I remember well when I used to struggle with anxiety. That constant alertness and vigilance to try and be prepared for something going wrong. I sometimes avoided things to get some relief, yet still worried endlessly. It was hypnotherapy that helped me to overcome my anxiety and that’s why it means so much to me to help others.

If you live in Ely or Newmarket and you are struggling with anxiety, you may be wondering whether hypnotherapy could help. I get asked a lot of questions at my free consultations about my hypnotherapy for anxiety. Naturally you want to know what it involves and how it works. As many others have discovered (take a look at the review pages), hypnotherapy is a powerful and effective way to reclaim your calmness, confidence and sense of inner control.

 

Understanding Anxiety

Anxiety is a normal human response when faced with a sense of threat or uncertainty. It’s a survival mechanism hard wired into us all.

However, sometimes this natural response can be too sensitive. It fires off even when you don’t need it. Some people with anxiety have always been over-thinkers and worriers but now it has become problematic. For others, a build up of things leads to a sort of psychological tipping point where there is so much stress that your brain perceives it as threat. And for others, it seems like their anxiety just comes out of the blue.

Anxiety can start to take over your thoughts, affect your well-being, and negatively impact upon sleep, relationships and just about every aspect of life. You may find that you just don’t want to do things or that you no longer get the same enjoyment from things. And trying to deal with all those ongoing thoughts and feelings is just exhausting.

With anxiety, you’ll experience persistent worry and a sense of dread. You’ll have difficulty relaxing and switching off mentally. That constant ‘what if’ voice will create ongoing potential future catastrophes. And you’ll experience restlessness, tension and maybe a racing heartbeat. It all leads to you withdrawing and avoiding certain places and situations.

Some or all of this may sound familiar if you are struggling with anxiety. Over the last fifteen years, I’ve helped many people from Ely, Newmarket and surrounding areas to overcome anxiety and rediscover calmness through hypnotherapy.

 

How Hypnotherapy for Anxiety Works

We already have the scientific research that shows that hypnotherapy is an effective treatment for anxiety (more here: The Effectiveness of Hypnotherapy as a Treatment For Anxiety). And you may have already read through the dozens of positive reviews from people who came to see me for anxiety hypnotherapy in Ely or Newmarket (Hypnotherapy Reviews).

Hypnotherapy draws upon ordinary psychological processes to help you to make positive changes to your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. We work out how your anxiety is keeping itself going and then change that pattern to help you feel more calm, confident and in control. We tackle aspects of your thoughts, habits, imagination, self talk, motivation, belief and expectations.

When you experience anxiety, your mind has learnt to respond to certain triggers with fear and worry. Logically you know you are safe but the emotions take over and your ability to think clearly diminishes. Rather than being controlled by your anxiety, hypnotherapy helps you to take back control over what you think, feel and do.

Anxiety hypnotherapy helps you to ease the physical symptoms of anxiety, change anxious thought patterns and to reduce negative self talk. Through your sessions you build your confidence and inner resilience and you strengthen your ability to feel physically relaxed and mentally calm.

As you change old patterns you have more time and space to think clearly and respond calmly. You can handle and deal with the things that once caused you anxiety. You feel happier and you feel better in yourself. You start getting on with the things you want to while feeling mentally, emotionally and physically calm, confident and in control.

 

What To Expect From Your Hypnotherapy Sessions

When you come for hypnotherapy for anxiety in Ely or Newmarket, you can start with a free consultation. This is a relaxed way to meet. You can tell me about how your anxiety is affecting you, and I’ll tell you how I work and how I can help you. I’ll also answer any questions you may have before starting your sessions.

At your first hypnotherapy session, we’ll talk through in more detail what is happening, when it happens, what you are doing and how you are doing it. We’ll also talk through your goals and how you’ll know our work together has been successful. We’ll be very thorough so that we focus on your individual experience of anxiety and so we can be very focused to get you a good result.

During sessions, you’ll learn a wide variety of strategies and techniques to help you to orchestrate your own thoughts and feelings. Your sessions will be focused on your needs and we’ll help you to calm the physical symptoms of anxiety, interrupt and reduce intrusive thoughts and worries and to build your confidence and self-belief for the situations in your life. You’ll learn a wide range of effective coping strategies that you can use in your daily life to support feeling better and that then help you to stay that way.

Whilst everyone is different, most people start noticing a difference after only a few sessions. You feel more mentally calm and physically relaxed. Your confidence and sense of control grow. You find yourself knowing that whatever happens, you’ll handle it.
