WHAT IS PERFORMANCE HYPNOTHERAPY?
Performance hypnotherapy is a specialised form of hypnotherapy focused on enhancing an individual’s mental and emotional state to optimise performance across various fields such as sports, academics, business, and the arts. During a session, a certified hypnotherapist guides the client into a deeply relaxed, focused state known as hypnosis, where the subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions and visualisations. This allows for the reprogramming of limiting beliefs, reduction of anxiety, and the strengthening of confidence and motivation. Performance hypnotherapy aims to break down mental barriers, improve focus, and cultivate a resilient, winning mindset that supports sustained success and peak performance in demanding situations.

How does performance hypnotherapy work?
Performance hypnotherapy works by guiding individuals into a state of deep relaxation, often referred to as hypnosis, where the conscious mind is quieted, and the subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions. In this receptive state, the hypnotherapist introduces imagery, affirmations, and visualisations designed to change unhelpful thought patterns and strengthen mental resilience. This process helps to reduce anxiety, enhance focus, and build confidence by creating new neural pathways. The therapy is interactive and client-centred, allowing the individual to internalise positive behaviours that improve performance in their specific field.

Replaces negative patterns with positive suggestions

How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions required varies depending on individual goals, the complexity of issues, and personal responsiveness to hypnotherapy. Typically, many clients begin to notice improvements within 4 to 6 sessions, but some may benefit from fewer or require more for deeper change. Performance hypnotherapy is often tailored to focus on specific challenges, which allows for a relatively focused and efficient approach. Your hypnotherapist will discuss progress regularly and adjust the treatment plan accordingly to ensure the best results within a reasonable timeframe.

During sessions, clients remain fully aware and in control, able to hear and respond to the hypnotherapist at all times.

Can performance hypnotherapy help with stress management?
Yes, performance hypnotherapy is highly effective for managing stress, which can often undermine performance. By inducing deep relaxation and teaching techniques to manage anxiety, hypnotherapy helps lower stress hormone levels and quiet the mind. This creates mental space to focus more clearly on tasks and reduces the risk of burnout. Learning to control stress through hypnotherapy also improves sleep quality, energy levels, and emotional resilience, all of which are crucial for sustained high performance.
