Hypnotherapy works by inducing a hypnotic state that is marked by a state of waking awareness in which people experience detached external attention and a focus on inner experiences. It is sometimes used as part of a treatment plan under hypnotherapy certification programs for phobias and other anxiety disorders. It is also sometimes used for pain management, weight loss, smoking cessation, and a variety of other applications.

There are many different reasons why a person might want to try hypnotherapy. Research suggests that some possible applications include:

• Chronic pain conditions
• Dementia symptoms
• Nausea and vomiting related to chemotherapy
• Pain during childbirth, dental procedures, or surgery
• Skin conditions, such as psoriasis and warts
• Symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
• Symptoms of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

Hypnotherapy may also be used by licensed physicians and psychologists who have clinical hypnotherapy certification in the treatment of conditions including anxiety disorders, depression, eating disorders, and post-traumatic stress.

During a hypnotherapy session as advised by the Holistic Academy, people go through a process that induces a trance-like state that helps them focus their minds, respond more readily to suggestions, and become deeply relaxed. Hypnotherapy utilizes the heightened awareness of the hypnotic state to help you focus on a problem more deeply.

During hypnotherapy:

1. We will be guided by the hypnotherapist to visualize us in a state of peacefulness and relaxation, even when confronting a problematic behavior or the object of our fears.
2. Our hypnotherapist may make gentle suggestions for behavior changes that can help us conquer our issue. For example, we may be taught to see us as a supportive advisor during a phobic reaction, thus learning to trust us and our ability to get through the situation.
3. We may be taught certain cognitive-behavioral coping skills, such as guided imagery and the stop technique that we can use when confronting fears or anxieties.
4. We may even be encouraged to talk about the first time we experienced the behavior or problem that we are trying to overcome and how we felt at that moment.
