Is hypnotherapy the solution for anxiety and stress?

So many of the clients I see come to me after having tried almost everything to resolve their anxiety and stress. Medication, various talk therapies such as Psychoanalysis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Neurofeedback and even shamanic practices. While some of these work to varying degrees, they are often predicated on a misunderstanding how the Mind-Body system works and sometimes even make things worse for the client. The thing that make the biggest difference for my clients is the experience of how worrying is essentially a hypnotic effect and learning how to change that with h ..read more

The one mindset that helps deal with disaster

Recently like many around the world, I found myself watching the devastating forest fires raging in Australia. The incredible amount of damage that has been caused is almost unbelievable. Wildlife, livelyhoods, homes, vinyards…nothing could escape the destructive force of nature that occurred. I then also think of the tremendous upswelling of support and resilience that has been shown by the people affected. It has been nothing less than the best of the human spirit in action. In made me think of how we all experience disasters and devastation in our lives. Whether it be losing a ..read more

Why would I try hypnotherapy?

So perhaps you’ve been recommended CBT (Cognitive behavioural therapy) you have tried talk therapy or even another type of psychotherapy. It either hasn’t worked to resolve your problem or maybe it hasn’t completely done that. Perhaps it’s even made things worse. The truth is you’ve done everything you can consciously to fix this issue and yet there it is. I’m here to tell you that’s a good thing. Why? Because that problem or issue is completely out of your conscious control (if it wasn’t you wouldn’t be reading this).  Wouldn’t it makes sense to work directly with the part of yo ..read more

     Maria, Marijuana, the weed, the pot, the herb the ganja… whatever you call it, it’s everywhere. Since the rise of cannabis associations here in Barcelona over the past years, high potency cannabis has been more and more readily available. Not Unsurprisingly I’ve also been seeing more increasing numbers of clients for cannabis addiction. While in recent years attitudes towards the use of cannabis have changed with legalization happening in many states the USA for recreacional and Medical use, the negative effects compulsive compulsive or addictive use of cannabis  is really ..read more

Soon the Holidays will be upon us: Christmas and on into the New Year! There will be lights, food, presents and no doubt you will be hearing and reading therapists and life coaches talk about the dreaded “resolutions”. Maybe you think that this year will be the year you will stop engaging in certain unhealthy habits or perhaps change your relationship with food or maybe just begin to think more positively about life. Maybe you tried last year and the year before that? Maybe you thought that it would make sense to just put off making resolutions altogether…because you never seem ..read more

Why you are still “stuck” after so much therapy

Why vs. How and why solution focussed hypnotherapy is the better option for rapid change. When many clients come to me they have already seen various psychologists, psychiatrists and various kinds of psychotherapists.  After months and even years of weekly sessions with these types of practitioners, I often get the question: “Why am I still experiencing this problem in my life and how can a hypnotherapist help when they are not able to? ” “Why” is not the question;  it is actually the problem. While it is useful to know what the conditions were that might have lead to certain pre ..read more

It’s all just placebo

“It’s all just placebo” I am sure you´ve heard that a million times… I personally cringe when I hear that phrase, because even though people recognize that there is a placebo effect, I KNOW they don´t really get it. There is no such thing as JUST placebo. Do you think it’s just anything that seems to be a medical treatment but is not? Do you think it´s a “trick of the mind” ? The power of belief and expectation is incredible and it’s a lot more than just positive thinking and studies show that “fake” treatments can significantly outperform drugs in clinical trials. The amazing th ..read more

Spring cleaning

My partner and her family celebrated Easter Sunday this year by having a Barbeque in the graden of her aunt´s place here in Gràcia. As we enjoyed the wonderful weather, food and company I had a moment to reflect on the coming months and how much I like Spring. It is, for me a particular time of renewal as I have my birthday in May, but also a time when I seriously consider letting go of the things that no longer serve me: in my Business, in my health and other areas of life it´s a moment when a “Spring Cleaning” is in order. It´s a wonderful to have an opportunity to make space ..read more

Mind your weight:  Fat thinking vs. thin thinking

One of the most common things that people come to a hypnotherapist is for help losing weight. Everyone wants to be healthy and look good and some find that despite their best efforts when it comes to staying active and exercising regularly (and may even succeed in losing a significant amount), they cannot keep it off due to their eating habits. They say “you can’t outrun your fork”. Whether due to stress at work or in their personal lives, it can be easy to turn to food as a coping mechanism. This so called “emotional eating” is a psychological barrier to the goals of health and ..read more

Do I need coaching or therapy?
Hypnotherapy in Barcelona Blog
by Ryan
4y ago
  This is one of the questions that I get asked most. As someone who works both as a clinician and a coach, it’s important for me that people really understand the distinction between the two. So what is the difference between coaching and therapy? When is therapy really helpful and when does the idea of a therapeutic model get in the way of real growth? Imagine a boat. This boat has holes in the bottom and is taking in water fast. The crew of this boat knows that unless they fix these the boat is going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. It takes someone with a particular skill ..read more
