Meet Adam Pearson, your hypnotherapist

I'm Adam Pearson. I trained with the Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy College in Bristol and I am accredited by the National Council for Hypnotherapy and the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. My background is in management and youth development.
​
​I also volunteer with The Wave Project, a brilliant charity helping young people to reduce anxiety and develop confidence through surfing. And I run various local community health groups. You can see more on linkedin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How does hypnosis work? Hypnosis is a natural process through which our minds become relaxed and focused at the same time. We do it ourselves all the time in conversation, listening to music, during familiar tasks and activities. It turns out that when we are in this state, the mind is particularly open to learning and change. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy combines positive therapeutic conversation with hypnosis.
What can hypnotherapy help with? Hypnotherapy is really good for anxiety and stress, as well anger, depression, fears, some specific conditions such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), phobias (needles, dogs, flying, driving and water are the most common) as well as habits and unconscious patterns and beliefs which affect performance and quality of life.

Many physical conditions can be exacerbated or caused by stress (e.g. IBS; Insomnia) and so hypnotherapy can often help to alleviate these. It can also be very helpful for social and relationship issues, and in managing obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours (OCD).
What are the benefits of hypnotherapy? The benefits are significant, namely the freedom to enjoy life and achieve your goals, free from anxiety, depressed feelings or anger.  One of the first and most common positive side-effects is better sleep. Success requires a commitment and a desire to change - it's not magic and no one can do it for you - but the process is straightforward and enjoyable and we aim to make it as easy, fast and cost effective as possible.
Does online hypnotherapy work? Online hypnotherapy has been around for a long time and it works very well. Several clients are still choosing to access the benefits of hypnotherapy without leaving home. Read more here:

How many sessions will I need? Everyone is different as you can have as many or few as you like. You'll learn a lot at the first session, and many people see improvements within the first few weeks. A series of 6-12 sessions is normal and sometimes it's more, sometimes fewer. Some people stop smoking after one longer session, or happily conquer a phobia after 4 sessions. My objective is usually to help you get to a point of feeling calm and in control, and confident that things are going to stay that way.
How much does it cost? Sessions costs £75, for 50 minutes, usually weekly. £150 for a double-length stop-smoking session.
Does hypnotherapy work for children? Children from 8 years old can make extremely good hypnotic subjects and can use their imaginations and creativity to very good effect, often with dramatic and surprising results even where other treatments have failed. The first meeting is with just a parent, free of charge. A parent is then required to attend all sessions, although they don't need to participate.
I am on medication - can hypnotherapy work with that? The process sits happily alongside the use of most medication, and we will explore how this works. We can work in consultation with your doctor where relevant. 
What is the "solution focused" approach? "Solution focus" is a set of techniques which involves focusing on what you want, more than on problems or their causes.  It takes the pressure off conscious effort or analytical thought and instead stimulates the imagination towards better things, for example by creating rich pictures of the outcomes you want, and letting the subconscious mind figure out how to get there.
Is hypnosis safe? In any state of hypnosis, people are actually more in control than when they are awake. They are always able to return to full awareness at any point, and usually do so feeling refreshed, lighter and more optimistic. I am fully accredited, registered, DBS-checked and insured.
