What is hypnotherapy?
A brief discuss on what hypnosis is, how it is used in a therapy context and how it can be intergreated with CBT
Mr Nathan Hook
Psychologist
“A qualified CBT therapist and Hypnotherapist running a private practice in the heart of Bristol.”
About Me
In my Bristol practice, I combine focused CBT and hypnotherapy to help clients navigate life's challenges. As a qualified Psychologist, I offer practical strategies to understand unhelpful thought patterns and cultivate inner resources. Whether you're seeking concrete tools for anxiety or deeper shifts, I provide a calm, collaborative space. My aim is to help you build lasting resilience and move towards a more fulfilling life.
Approach
Running a Bristol practice lets me pace sessions to suit you, blending CBT tasks with gentle hypnotic techniques to address anxiety, phobias or addictive urges. I offer face-to-face work in Bristol and secure online sessions in English, with clear agendas and brief between-session experiments. Sessions are collaborative: we set small, measurable steps, use focused rehearsal in trance, and track what changes between meetings. People seeking practical, lasting shifts tend to find this way of working helpful.
