Hypnosis for Phobias
Welcome to Quiet Medicine
I'm Lisa Jackson, a fully qualified clinical hypnotherapist based in south London. I founded Quiet Medicine because I wanted to provide a caring and supportive environment in which, whatever your issue, we can work together to effectively resolve it. I'm committed to inspiring, encouraging and empowering you to use hypnotherapy as a powerful tool for lasting change.
FREE YOURSELF FROM FEAR
If you have a phobia, then you've developed an irrational fear of a particular situation or thing that's not dangerous and which doesn't bother most other people, though for you its effects may be debilitating. It's possible to develop a phobia about virtually anything - snakes, spiders, heights, confined spaces, exams (see exam nerves), flying in an aeroplane, buttons or going to the dentist (see dental phobias). Hypnotherapy quickly and effectively combats phobias and will help you free yourself from fear so you can get on with living your life.
HYPNOTHERAPY WORKS!
A study published in the American Journal Of Clinical Hypnosis concluded that 'hypnosis is an effective and efficient adjunct in the treatment of phobias.'
Anxiety UK (formerly the National Phobics' Society), the UK's leading charity for people affected by anxiety disorders, advocates the use of hypnotherapy to its members.
TESTIMONIAL
'I wanted to drop you a quick line about my continued sucess following my hypnotherapy sessions with you in January. Aside from my problem with heights/voids/bridges I have (had) a fear of putting my head in the water and couldn't even manage a length of front crawl... I recently went for scuba lessons and had one really horrendous day: trying to take a regulator out underwater and not panic is hard work, so I ended up a nervous wreck. However, I engaged all the skills you gave me and postive thoughts... The next day I did my scuba diver qualification with my confident head on, and after that I just got better and better. It was all a bit emotional and quite life changing for me... It has also helped my swimming: front crawl is no problem now and, as for swimming underwater, you'd think I was a natural. I'm sure that the hypnotherapy I had for my vertigo helped... Learning to dive was truly an amazing experience - thank you for helping to make it possible and to allow a 47-year-old to keep pushing her boundaries. This year I have realised that so many of my friends are becoming more and more nervous of doing things - and I certainly don't want that to happen to me. This year diving, perhaps next year paragliding!'
