Whether you want help to stop smoking or build your confidence to achieve your personal goals, hypnotherapy is an effective way to do this through a qualified practitioner.

It is often difficult to make that initial appointment to discuss personal matters. Nevertheless, in the private, confidential and professional atmosphere of the London Therapy Centre people are often surprised to discover how quickly they are able to overcome their initial discomfort and discuss their personal problems.

At the London Therapy Centre you can expect a qualified psychotherapist to approach your problems in a manner which is sensitive to your feelings and you can expect him or her to behave in a professional, ethical and responsible manner.

We offer psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and a combination of both therapies, hypnoanalysis. Depending on the nature of the problem, the psychotherapist will propose the optimum therapeutic approach, as well as the recommended length of treatment.

Most people experience anxiety or depression at some stage of life and need to come to terms with pain or disappointment. Often this can be resolved by the individual without outside help. Sometimes, however the difficulties persist causing unhappiness at home and at work. This may be because current difficulties are stirring up feelings from the past of which the person is not consciously aware. Psychotherapy can enable individuals to understand hidden aspects of themselves.

Psychotherapy can help those who:

• feel anxious and unable to cope with the burdens of life.
• experience an underlying sense of sadness or dissatisfaction.
• lack confidence or feel they are not adequately fulfilling their potential.
• experience difficulty making or sustaining relationships or who are repeatedly drawn into unhappy partnerships.
• find it hard to come to terms with a life change such as bereavement, divorce or job loss.
• express emotional problems through physical symptoms.

Psychotherapy has been repeatedly scientifically demonstrated to be of benefit for most people in most situations. Benefits might include the lifting of a depression or no longer feeling afraid or angry or anxious. You may experience a significant lessening of the distress of depression or anxiety. You may be better able to cope with social or family relationships, and so receive more satisfaction from them. You may better understand your personal goals and values and thus grow and mature as a person.
