Confidence and Self Esteem

Belief in your own abilities (self confidence) and how you feel about yourself (self esteem) are two separate but intertwined parts of who you are.

We all benefit from self confidence as we go through life. It is something which can be enhanced and learned and one of the ways in which we can do that is by developing a genuine understanding of your current level of self confidence. Together we can work on the things that chip away at your potential and elevate the beliefs that will help you progress.

How you see yourself is so important in life. Having poor self esteem will impact your ability to function, your motivation and even slide you towards depression and a sense of failure. Hypno-Psychotherapy (the targetted use of Hypnosis in Psychotherapy) helps you to understand the inputs, messages and judgements you absorbed as you grew up. These in turn frame how you judge success and failure. The more we think negative thoughts or react to things in a negative way, the harder it is to do otherwise. You can learn the tools that allow this change to take place and you can thrive on the understanding that past messages and understandings need not frame how you live your life in the future.

Developing a better you.

Achieving your goals in life is not possible without self belief, motivation and understanding of how you fit into the world around you.

Without self belief you will not see yourself as being able to achieve anything. Without motivation you may be able to set yourself a target but you will be held back by events that get in the way of achieving your dreams. What you want to do and the nature of your goals is influenced by the experiences, people and messages that your have interacted with over the course of your life. Building towards your dreams with achievable short term goals will help to develop a sense of successful thinking which will replace the disruptive patterns of behaviour that have held you back.

Performance Enhancement

Whether it is at work, on-stage or in the bedroom, performing to your best abilities is possible for everyone if they wish.

By developing an understanding of where your negative thoughts have come from, you can choose to enhance the part of you that makes performance possible. Through the use of hypnosis we can make the most of the fact that your brain can be taught new approaches to events that have yet to happen. Hypnosis is one way of teaching your brain how to learn a new skill before you have practiced it. Developing a positive mental attitude changes your brain so that it will become more positive and conceive of repeated success in your future goals.

Public Speaking

If you are one of the many people who has experienced a fear of public speaking, understanding how to change and direct your body’s nervous reactions can be transformational.

Your low self esteem may lead you to focus on how others expect you to make a mistake or fail. You may have a feeling of fear because you are unused to the attention or perception of failure. By re-educating your mind to overcome the fight or flight anxiety that can come with presenting in public, you can put aside the subliminal fears that influence you and become confident that the energy you feel is both creative and positive.

What is Therapy & Counselling?

Many people have an idea of what therapy is like because they have seen it depicted on television or in films. You make have seen someone lying on a couch or talking to an “Expert Therapist” who nods knowingly. This can be a reality for some people, but the truth is that the only expert on how to be you, is you. Your therapy at Assisi Therapy in Salisbury can include Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy or Counselling and the only thing that influences the balance of these approaches, is what is best for you.
