Depression (Mild to Moderate)
Depression is a common mental health condition marked by persistent sadness, low mood, or hopelessness that affects daily life. The good news is it’s treatable, with support from your GP, medication, therapy, and lifestyle changes.
Hypnotherapy can be a helpful addition, but always consult your GP first, especially in cases of clinical depression, to ensure it’s the right fit for your care plan.
Rationalising Sadness - "It Will Pass"
Sadness is a normal, temporary emotion that everyone feels in response to difficult situations like loss or disappointment. It’s your mind’s way of processing something painful, but it usually fades with time or support.
Hypnotherapy can help by exploring deeper thoughts or past experiences that might be causing the sadness, and gently shift negative thinking into something more balanced. Together, we plan what you can do to help yourself navigate through the worst times and instil powerful, positive suggestions in you so you feel empowered and more confident to handle it daily, also using affirmations such as, “Like a Cloud, It Will Pass” has been shown to help.
Coping with Bereavement & Grief
Grief in bereavement is the deep emotional pain and sorrow you feel after losing someone you love. It’s a natural, human response to loss; whether it’s a death, the end of a close relationship, or even the loss of a role or future you expected. Grief can show up in many ways: sadness, anger, guilt, numbness, confusion, or even physical symptoms like fatigue or trouble sleeping. Everyone grieves differently, and there’s no “right” timeline. It’s how your mind and heart process the loss and slowly find a way to adjust to life without that person.
Hypnotherapy can help with grief by giving you a calm, mental space to work through the pain without getting overwhelmed. It can ease heavy emotions like guilt, despair or deep sadness, help you process and reframe painful memories, and gently support you as you adjust to life without the person or situation. It won’t erase the grief or memories, but it can make them feel more addressable and help you heal in a healthy way.
Managing Depression (Moderate)
Depression is a serious, long-term mental health condition that can affect how you feel, think, and function. It may leave you feeling hopeless, numb, or drained for extended periods, often without an obvious cause, and can impact sleep, work, and relationships.
Hypnotherapy can support depression by gently working with the subconscious to ease negative thought patterns, release suppressed emotions, and build self-worth and hope. It can complement other treatments like medication, but always consult your GP before starting hypnotherapy, especially for clinical depression.
