Anxiety Support

If you suffer from anxiety you are probably aware that you are constantly predicting the future in a negative way and how it can sabotage positive thoughts, stop you from socialising and get in the way of relationships.

We now know that chronic anxiety is a mental health problem, and that it actually derives from primitive responses that have evolved to keep us in a state of high alert when we are in danger. Unfortunately our brain often misinterprets our modern world in this primitive way and whilst trying to keep you safe it just creates anxiety. How do I know if I anxiety?

Anxiety is recognised as a sustained mental health disorder that can be triggered by stress. Anxiety doesn’t fade into the distance once the threat is mediated. Anxiety hangs around for the long haul, and can cause significant impairment in social, occupational, and other important areas of functioning.

Levels of anxiety range from mild to severe, and in many people this can trigger panic attacks, but there is a way to reduce, or even remove anxiety permanently.

Hypnotherapy includes relaxation techniques, which tell the primitive and anxious part of the brain that you are safe. With CBT and Solution focused therapies your feelings of anxiety can be reduced and this helps you to take control of your thoughts, feel calm and begin to take control of your thoughts again.
