Hypnotherapy for Trauma Recovery

How Does Hypnotherapy for Trauma Work

Trauma can trigger the brain’s amygdala, setting off a fight-or-flight response that leads to a constant state of stress. Hypnotherapy helps reduce this reaction by guiding individuals into a profoundly relaxed state, allowing them to access the subconscious mind.

In this relaxed setting, patients can explore memories, emotions, or sensations linked to their trauma. This journey is about healing rather than merely revisiting painful memories. Techniques such as guided visualization and relaxation methods are employed to help clients alter how their brains process trauma. Many individuals report a significant anxiety reduction—often by over 50%—after just a few sessions.
