At Monarch Psychology, we are dedicated to offering evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs. Clinical hypnosis is a powerful therapeutic tool that can help you access your subconscious mind to foster healing, break unhelpful patterns, and achieve personal growth.
Clinical hypnosis is a guided process where a trained therapist helps you enter a focused, relaxed state of mind—often referred to as a trance. In this state, your subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions, insights, and change.
It’s not about losing control or being “put under”; instead, you remain fully aware and in charge, working collaboratively with your therapist. Trance is considered to be a normal and adaptive altered state of consciousness that occasionally occurs spontaneously for many people.
Your therapist will start by exploring your goals and concerns. The therapist will guide you into a relaxed state using calming techniques such as deep breathing or visualization. Once in this state, the therapist will offer positive suggestions or explore underlying issues, depending on your treatment plan.
