About Hypnotherapy

Contrary to popular belief there is nothing weird or mysterious about hypnosis and it is not a state of deep sleep. It is a naturally occurring relaxed state of heightened awareness.

What is it?

Hypnosis is an inward focusing of attention through which the demands of the outside world are switched off. It is a state of deep relaxation, a form of trance, during which the critical analytical mind shuts off, making the unconscious mind more accessible.

During hypnosis you are not asleep, and nothing can happen without your consent. You can hear everything being said and afterwards will usually remember all that has happened while in hypnosis.

“Hypnotherapy can be used to help you gain control over undesired behaviors or to help you cope better with anxiety or pain. Hypnosis that’s conducted by a trained therapist or health care professional is considered a safe, complementary and alternative medical treatment.” — Mayo Clinic

The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis defines hypnosis as: “A state of inner absorption, concentration and focused attention”.

The US Department of Education defines hypnosis as: “The bypass of the critical factor of the conscious mind (a person’s analytical and judgmental ability) followed by the establishment of acceptable selective thinking”.

Acceptable selective thinking refers to the creation of new beliefs in the unconscious mind through reprogramming whilst in hypnotic trance. The reprogramming changes perceptions, breaks habits and creates new automatic responses to situations.

Life Coaching

What is it?

A way to help you maximize your full potential and achieve your goals professionally and personally.

What does life coaching do for you?

A life coach helps you to recognize your goals, analyze your current situations, identify and change self-limiting beliefs and any other obstacles in your life.

A life coach helps you to create a plan of action and cultivate the motivation and discipline to create the bridge between your goals and achievements.

Counseling

The American Counseling Association (ACA), defines counseling as “a professional relationship that empowers diverse individuals, families, and groups to accomplish mental health, wellness, education, and career goals.”

Counseling is a collaborative effort between you and Myrto as your counselor, and acts as an adjunct to hypnosis and life coaching, helping you to improve communication and coping skills, strengthen self-esteem and promote changes in behavior and wellbeing.
