      Hello! I have studied hypnotherapy briefly during my undergraduate degree but I have not had the chance to use it.

      I’ve studied hypnotherapy in the past but I’ve never used it myself as I work in a different area of psychology.

      Similar to Jamie and Hannah, I have studied it in the past, but I haven’t had the chance to use it. I have heard interesting things about its effectiveness though.

      I haven’t studied it, but I did receive it once to help me with anxiety. For me, being able to be more ‘in the moment’ is really helpful as it helps me to stop repeatedly thinking about things that have happened in the past, or things that might happen in the future. It also helped me to reframe some of my negative thought patterns. I think it can be really powerful, but does need to be delivered by properly trained in it. It is also important to understand that it might not be the best tool for everyone.
