Why do people come visit us?

People usually visit Dr Natalie, Strategic Psychotherapist & Clinical Hypnotherapist because they have come to a crossroads in their life. People come for very simple things, others for far more complex issues, either / or, they realise they want something to change.

Enough is enough!

Perhaps they may have heard about our clinic, or heard that Psychotherapy and Clinical Hypnotherapy could help. Or perhaps they have tried other Therapy models without success and are looking for something different.

Most people come to the stage of knowing that if they keep on doing what they've always done, they are going to continue to get the same results – and that’s OK if you’re happy with the results you are getting in your life, but it’s pretty silly if you continue doing what you’ve always done, if you’re not happy.

Most of our clients have reached a point and decided it’s time to do things differently. To make the necessary changes. It's time to get back in control. Control over their thinking, their behaviour and ultimately their lives.

They want to break old habits. They want to think more positively, have more choices, and control, and feel better about themselves.
They want the past to be left in the past and to start anew with a clean slate.

And like most of us, they ultimately want to be happy and relaxed, with a sense of freedom and the power to choose.

That's why people visit Dr Natalie, so they can make the changes that they want to make.

Why Psychotherapy?

The psychotherapy modality that Dr Natalie uses is Strategic Psychotherapy.
Strategic Psychotherapy looks to understand and change the processes you use to create and maintain your problems. It is far less interested in ‘why’ things happen and more interested in ‘how’ they happen – how your problems are created and how you maintain them.

Knowing how, means having ‘know-how’.

Knowing how you do something puts you back in control.

Modern and effective Strategic Psychotherapy in combination with Clinical Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool in aiding you to make the changes in your life that you are seeking to make, giving you more choices, freedom and control.

Why Clinical Hypnotherapy?

Firstly, a Clinical Hypnotherapist is a specialist in hypnotherapy.

A Clinical Hypnotherapist uses hypnosis as a therapeutic modality to work with problems or conditions that a client wishes to change.

During therapeutic hypnosis, the conscious mind (that critical, analytical and often very busy part of the mind) is able to take a rest. Allowing the client to tap into the storehouse of information and often hidden strengths, that lie in the subconscious or unconscious mind.

This allows the person to make positive changes to thought patterns, beliefs, behaviours, habits or the effects of traumatic incidents that may be having a negative impact both mentally and/or physically.

And to put your mind at rest, hypnosis is a normal and very naturally occurring, healthy state of mind. It’s the same state, but at a deeper level, that you’re in when your gaze out the window daydreaming, or are zoned out whilst engrossed in a book or reach a destination while driving but can’t remember getting there. It is totally natural and it’s drug free. And at all times you, are totally in control throughout a session of Clinical Hypnotherapy.

Can we help?

Hypnotherapy has been around for hundreds of years helping all manner of conditions and problems. Now days, people still present with all sorts of issues, ranging from: anxiety, overwhelm, procrastination, weight loss, difficulty sleeping, self-doubt, low self-esteem, addictions, pain and PTSD just to name a few.

On the other hand, people also come to improve themselves. Improve their performance in leadership, study or sport, enhance memory, gain more confidence in social settings or in public speaking, or to be more tolerant, understanding and patient. It really is limitless what hypnotherapy can help, when it is done well.

Dr Natalie’s approach

Dr Nat, treats every client individually, there is no cookie cutter, one size fits all approach or the old way - reading generic hypnosis scripts out of a book, or fitting the client to a particular old Psychotherapy model.

Modern Strategic Psychotherapy in conjunction with modern Clinical Hypnotherapy, if needed is a modern approach, that is about customising every session to meet the needs of the client, helping to create the lasting changes that they want to make.
