Hypnotherapy for Trauma and PTSD

If you’re struggling with the effects of trauma or post-traumatic stress, hypnotherapy can offer a gentle, powerful way to support your healing.

Trauma can leave deep emotional imprints, whether it stems from a single event or long-term experiences such as abuse, neglect, loss, or accidents. These past events can trigger anxiety, flashbacks, nightmares, emotional numbness, or a constant feeling of being on edge. Hypnotherapy helps to release these patterns by working directly with the subconscious mind – where trauma is often stored.

How Can Hypnotherapy Help with Trauma?

Hypnotherapy allows you to process and reframe traumatic memories in a safe and controlled way. Rather than reliving the event, hypnosis helps you create emotional distance, change how your mind responds, and gently shift out of survival mode.

Many people find relief from symptoms such as:

• Intrusive thoughts or flashbacks

• Sleep disturbances and nightmares

• Feelings of guilt, shame, or fear

• Hypervigilance or being easily startled

• Avoidance behaviours

• Emotional shutdown or disconnection
  
  

Hypnotherapy can also help restore a sense of safety, rebuild confidence, and reduce anxiety linked to trauma.

Evidence-Based Support

Clinical studies and case reports suggest that hypnosis can be effective in reducing post-traumatic stress symptoms, especially when used alongside trauma-informed therapeutic techniques. It has been shown to help calm the nervous system, reduce emotional reactivity, and shift long-held patterns rooted in the trauma experience.

A Gentle Approach to Healing

Hypnotherapy doesn’t force you to talk about everything that happened. Instead, it works with your mind in a respectful and non-invasive way, helping you regain control and move forward at your own pace.

Whether you're living with recent trauma or still feeling the effects of something that happened years ago, hypnotherapy offers hope and real support.
