Artt Therapy - A short history

 

Alan became interested in hypnotherapy many years ago and had considered training, however, like many other people was "too busy working" to consider doing anything else. After reaching that golden age where "life begins" he began to relax and slow down from a hectic lifestyle and look for new interests and directions.

 

In Alan's own words

 

"I can't recall exactly what focused my interest on hypnosis again, however, I remember becoming fascinated by Paul McKenna after watching him on TV explaining and demonstrating how hypnosis could help people with phobias.

Then and now I spend many hours a week reading and researching hypnosis, and it became clear to me that here was an age old natural method of therapy that seemed to be having a bit of a renaissance. I realized almost immediately that I wanted be a hypnotherapist. There was an enthusiasm inside of me that I had not known for many years. I was at that time living in Germany, with no chance of finding a training school that taught hypnotherapy in English. The decision was made to find the best training I could, and after a few mouse clicks surfing the Internet I found a very helpful experienced Munich-based therapist Olf Stoiber.

He recommended a training establishment in England.

 

I was very quickly enrolled and off to Essex to EICH. After a couple of hundred hours of theory and practical workshops I graduated with a Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis and added a further Diploma in Advanced Hypno-Analysis.

Alan's Ethos

 

"The field of alternative medicine is growing day by day. The gap between traditional and complementary treatment is narrowing and in many cases both are working together to help relieve a variety of ailments. In the UK quite a few health trusts now refer people with specific ailments or disorders to alternative health practitioners, where it is deemed likely that the alternative method may result in a rapid improvement in their condition, or that it complements traditional medicine to promote a faster recovery."

 

Life's Experience

 

"We are all individuals, no two of us are the same. We have all grown up in different environments, experienced feelings, such as happiness, sadness, illnesses, and trauma, all in different ways.
Our self-limiting beliefs can often hold us back from achieving and pursuing the life we really could enjoy if empowered with the ability to change."

 

Make that change now!

 

"I get great satisfaction seeing someone improve and better their lifestyle through the use of rapid change techniques, such as those that hypnotherapy offers."

For Example...

 

> The client who has suffered acute stress for a long time suddenly regains their zest for life.
> The success of passing the driving test or exam with no "nerves".

> The real happiness of overcoming a life long phobia so that it seems as if it never was a problem in the first place.

These and many other life changing achievements are possible.

 

"Hypnotherapy can help you make that change"
