Hypnosis to Reframe Trauma as a Lucky Escape

Picture the thing that happened to you sitting differently in your mind, lighter, further away, almost like a lucky escape.

That on edge feeling that won't switch off, the sadness underneath it, that is the place this session meets you.

A calming lake settles as your breathing slows, then a fisherman drops bait onto a hook, and you feel what it is to nearly be caught and then wriggle free. That scene is there to help you consider that whatever happened, it could have been worse, and that matters. From there, you move into a private cinema with three screens, where a difficult memory is played backwards and forwards until it loses its grip, and a steadier version of events takes its place. This was shaped from work with a client processing the aftermath of a serious assault.

It runs about 33 minutes, and it tends to leave the memory feeling like something you got through, not something still happening to you.
