Anxiety

Over 8 million people in the UK are experiencing an anxiety disorder at any one time (Mental Health UK). You are not alone, even though it might feel like you are.

Anxiety is a common mental health condition characterised by excessive worry, fear and apprehension. It can manifest as physical symptoms like increased heart rate, sweating, trembling, and restlessness. Anxiety disorders can range from generalised anxiety disorder (GAD) to specific phobias, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder and more.

Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH) is a powerful approach that integrates Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with hypnotherapy, effectively managing anxiety disorders. Strong evidence suggests that combining hypnotherapy with CBT results in significantly more effective, rapid, and long-lasting treatment than CBT alone. 

A meta-analysis by Irving Kirsch compared the efficacy of cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy to CBT alone, drawing data from 18 randomised control trials – and showed that for between 70-90% of clients, cognitive and behavioural therapies were more effective when integrated with hypnosis. (Kirsch et al., 1996) (UKHH).
