Treatment for depression
Depression is a major worldwide health problem. It is a very common issue and anyone can suffer from it. If you suffer from depression then there is a way out. Depression can be effectively treated. I am confident that I can help you to overcome depression and find happiness in your life again.
Stress Control
Most of us are trying to find balance between our work and personal life, to lead happy and fulfilling lives without stress. Sometimes this appears too hard to attain especially when stressors such as difficult relationships, divorce, finances and work seem to accumulate and plot against us.
Suicidal Thoughts
You’ll be staggered to learn that around 80% of people have suicidal thoughts at least once in their lives. More than half of the people who actually attempt suicide are thought to be depressed. Working through these difficult times can find the root of your unhappiness and help you return to a fulfilling life.
Post Traumatic Stress
Are you feeling overwhelmed, devastated, anxious? There could be many reasons. From being the victim of an assault or seeing an accident, to extreme cases like experiencing a war situation at close quarters you may be suffering with Post Traumatic Stress.
Eating Disorders
Eating disorders can affect people of any age. You may have an eating disorder if you focus excessively on your weight and shape, make unhealthy choices about food with damaging results to your health. I have had great success with clients seeking a healthier outlook on diet and exercise.
Fear of Flying
If you have panic attacks or feel stressed at the very thought of flying, you’re almost certainly suffering with a flying phobia. It is not uncommon – and thankfully can be easily treated.
Bereavement and loss
You may be in lots of turmoil due to death of a loved one, a divorce or separation, pet loss and bereavement, moving home or a personal injury. Whatever the cause of the loss, the symptoms remain the same: acute phases of sadness, anger, guilt and even depression.
Confidence and Self-esteem
The key to your success is to always ensure that your self-belief and self-confidence are intact. If you doubt that you can BE, or DO or HAVE anything you truly desire in life, then your self perception, self-belief, self-confidence and self-trust has to be enhanced.
Alcohol Problems
For many people, alcohol problems and other addiction problems are caused by the need to relieve some physical or mental anguish in their lives by, literally, altering their state of consciousness. Any euphoria that alcohol provides is very short lived. A longer term solution can be found with a bit of dedication.
Anxiety and Panic Attacks
Anxiety and panic attacks can be very destructive and can make living a “normal life” almost impossible. Panic attacks produce a sudden feeling of terror with an overwhelming feeling of anxiety, fear, apprehension and fast or irregular heartbeat. A panic attack can begin after an experience of some trauma, separation or an accident. Learn how to the control and manage them.
Anger Management
Anger management courses offer treatment and therapy that can help deal with negative emotions. Anger is a powerful and important emotion and becomes problematic if you are not able to keep it under control. If anger is out of control it can adversely affect you and your relationships with others in both your personal and work life.
Treatment for Phobias
Phobias are often very intense, unreasonable fears that massively disrupt the life of an otherwise healthy person. My techniques can be used to successfully treat all types of phobias: agoraphobia, aviophobia (fear of flying) and other common phobias – fear of animals, insects, heights, closed spaces, blood and injections and more.
Stop Smoking Treatment
For the majority of smokers, finding the willpower to stop smoking can seem extremely difficult and many will end up starting the habit again after just a few months. Nicotine is an extremely powerful drug, but with the right help you can take it on with willpower alone.
Fetish Treatment
Fetishism is a sexual obsession focused on an inanimate object or body parts for sexual satisfaction. Fetishism is a variation of normal sexual behaviour but becomes a disorder when it adversely affects sexual, social and emotional functioning and starts to damage relationships.
Relationship Problems
Do you have a problem with your relationship? Perhaps you need to mend what you already have or need the help to move on with the least amount of trauma? A bad relationship can significantly impact on all areas of your life and drag you into a downward spiral.
Insomnia Treatment
If you suffer from sleepless nights, curing insomnia as quickly as possible is vital so that you can get your life back on track. I’ve had many patients who suffer from disturbed sleeping patterns. Using a combination of psychotherapy and hypnosis can very easily and quickly resolve insomnia by eliminating the underlying causes.
Sexual Dysfunction
Sexual relationship problems arise in many different forms, are distressing and is one of the most common issues I come across in my work. Sex should be fun, rewarding and satisfying and my goal is to help to achieve exactly that for all of my clients. I have an immense amount of experience in the treatment of all sexual problems including loss of libido and erectile dysfunction.
