Stop Smoking Hypnosis in Derby

Stop Smoking Hypnosis in Derby

Have you been looking for Stop Smoking Hypnosis in Derby as a way of quitting smoking in Derby ? Well, think about this for a moment : Lung cancer has become a formidable disease, killing about 1.5 million people per year globally. Were it a disease that wasn’t predominantly man – made (ie smoking) it would be called a Pandemic and the world would be in a state of constant worry. In the UK alone c. 40,000 a year die from this disease (that’s 110 a day) and almost 80% of these cases are preventable.

Why do you do it ?

But, ok you probably did really know that – but when you smoke, you don’t like to think about it do you ? Because you don’t like to think about it you tell yourself that you like it. Maybe it’s your one bit of pleasure in life. Or everyone’s got to die sometime etc etc. On average it takes around 15 years off your life and the death is usually slow and agonising and dreadfully upsetting for your loved ones.

What about the cost, on average its £250 a month – £3,000 pa. Crazy for something that’s killing you.

What to do next

I have been a practicing Hypnotherapist in Derby for 17 years and have carried out 10,000 + client sessions – providing hundreds of clients with stop smoking Hypnosis in Derby. Why don’t you look at my website www.alexanderpractice.co.uk to see how I can help you. Cost wise it’s £120.00 for the one off session (you only need one) – and of course you save that money the moment you quit smoking in Derby.

Help with Driving Confidence in Derby

Help with Driving Confidence in Derby

As a Hypnotherapist & Cognitive Behavioural Therapist in Derby with some 17 years experience, it’s often very surprising just how many people struggle with driving nerves and are seeking help with Driving Confidence in Derby.

If you’re looking for help with driving confidence in Derby how many of these symptoms do you recognise :

  • You stick to the area / location that you know
  • The thought of travelling any distance makes you anxious – often days before the journey
  • You avoid / don’t go on holidays
  • The thought of dual carriageways / Motorways fills you with terror
  • Travelling as a passenger is equally as difficult
  • Panic attacks can occur when you go on journeys outside your comfort zone
  • You let your partner do all the driving

It’s interesting how the fear can actually become a phobia and dominate your life to the point where your life just seems to close in around you – and you end up just doing less and less. Therefore if you’re looking for help with driving confidence in Derby isn’t it time you got your independence / life back and did something about it ?

Why not have a look through my website www.alexanderpractice.co.uk to see how I can help you ?

You can contact me via the website or as follows – everything as you’d expect is in total confidence :

Help with Gambling Addiction in Derby

Are you, or do you know someone who is looking for help with gambling addiction in  Derby ? To be honest, when you think about it, it doesn’t matter whether you’re losing “big time” or not. You’re still losing aren’t you….

I’ve had people come to me looking for help with gambling addiction in Derby who are simply playing ‘ Russian Roulette ‘ with their family finances. And let’s face it when you lose – as surely you do in the long term then it’s not just you, it’s your wife / partner / children who ultimately suffer.  Equally I’ve had people come who are relatively wealthy and losing £thousands daily / weekly.

OK, I know you sometimes win, which sometimes seems to make it all worthwhile. But these gambling companies exist “as a business” – they’re in business to make money at your expense…and I’ve seen the lifestyles they have – again at your expense. They couldn’t exist without you losing….and you DO lose in the long run, don’t you.

OK, enough of the lecturing, the things I’ve stated above you know anyway – don’t you. So if you’re at that point in your life where you’re genuinely looking for help with gambling addiction in Derby why not have a look at my website www.alexanderpractice.co.uk to see how I can help you. It all starts with YOU.

But before we talk about me, what about you. What is it that you’ve been looking to “sort out” ?

Hypnotherapy is most certainly not “messing with your mind”, nor will it be “opening a can of worms”. Nor is it “trick” or “quack”. I could not have been in practice for 17 years – probably more than anyone else in the region if what I did was not effective – could I ? Typically Hypnotherapy has been associated with Stopping Smoking, helping you to lose weight, maybe boosting your confidence a little, helping you to stop biting your nails etc. Actually I use it also as a way of bring relief from :

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Panic attacks
  • Phobias
  • Insomnia
  • Alcoholism
  • Eating disorders

Perhaps more than you had initially thought…. So if you’ve been looking for a Hypnotherapist in Derby then consider the following :

  1. I’ve been in practice for more than 17 years – perhaps more than anyone else in the region
  2. I’m also qualified as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and a Stress Management Consultant
  3. My office is in a professional area of Derby
  4. Everything is in total confidence and privacy.
  5. You will find me a caring and approachable therapist with a wealth of life skills.

Help with Alcohol Addiction in Derby

By

Help with Alcohol Addiction in Derby

So its now 2019 and many of us turn our thoughts towards new year resolutions, maybe to stop smoking, maybe to get fitter, but also maybe you’ve realised that your glass of wine / beer when you get home after work has become an unhealthy and escalating habit and you’re now looking for help with alcohol addiction in Derby. Ok, I’m not trying to make out you’re an alcoholic or that you cant actually exist without a drink. What I’m saying is that maybe, as I’ve said, its just become an unhealthy habit for you. So you’re not actually looking for help with alcohol addiction in Derby – just a bit of help in getting into a healthier lifestyle. And that perhaps is what 95% of people who come to me with alcohol problems want. Yes, of course I do get alcoholics coming to me – but often theirs is a problem in that the alcohol is used as a way of blotting out past problems. So in dealing with such cases when someone does need help with alcohol addiction in Derby, then I always work on the cause of the problem first. Without going into too much detail I hope that makes sense.

So why do I drink so much ?

Well, clearly not an easy question to answer. Generally though, people use alcohol as a way of :
  • Feeling more confident
  • Feeling happier
  • Relieving stress
  • Unwinding at the end of a day
  • Socialising / having a good time
The thing is, once it starts to prolong, the “remedy” then becomes the ailment. One glass of wine when you get home can easily become a bottle. You start to become sluggish, cant be bothered to do stuff, take less interest in hobbies or looking after yourself. Your weight escalates, which in turn makes you feel unhappy with your appearance. You become more prone to snapping at your partner / falling out. Less interested in sex. Although you fall asleep easily enough, actually your quality of sleep suffers (alcohol is a stimulant) so you always feel tired. I think you get the picture.

So what now ?

Well, by the shear fact that you’re reading this article then you’ve either realised that you have a problem – or someone close to you has a problem. The big thing is to recognise, and yes, admit that something needs to change. As the saying goes “…if you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always got”. To be honest, for most people who come to me – the alcohol has just become a bad habit rather than them being an alcoholic and I’m able to carry out therapy in a “one off ” session lasting 1.5 – 2 hours (I would confirm this with you at initial contact).

Support for staff experiencing mental health problems in Derby

Support for staff experiencing mental health problems in Derby

I have been providing support for staff experiencing mental health problem in Derby for almost 17 years now. It may surprise you to learn that almost 20% of employees are dealing with a mental health problem.  For example anxiety, depression or stress. Ok, this may not be directly related to work related issues – but the fact is that this can stop people performing at their best.

Organisations perform better when their staff are healthy, motivated and focused.

The fact is that inevitably it will affect the profitability of the company, and especially if the employee is in a key position / having a key skill. Such people are exceedingly hard to replace – especially in these days of high employment. It’s estimated the costs of replacing key employees is as high as £20,000….makes sense to keep your workforce happy and motivated doesn’t it.

Smart employers support employees who are experiencing mental health problems to cope and recover.

The support people receive from employers is key in determining how well and how quickly they are able to get back to peak performance. Standing by people when they experience a mental health problem is not only about keeping hold of a valuable staff member. It also sends a message about your organisation’s values. All employees need to see that their organisation lives its values and treats its people well. Trust and integrity are key drivers of engagement. Organisations that support staff reap the benefits in terms of loyalty and commitment from all employees.

As indicated, I have been providing support for staff experiencing mental health problem in Derby for seventeen years now – having carried out many thousands of client sessions.

So whether you’re an employer (or an employee) seeking support for staff experiencing mental health problem in Derby  – why not check out my website www.alexanderpractice.co.uk  to see how I can help you. Then contact me as below to start the ball rolling :

Lose Weight with Hypnotherapy in Derby

By

Lose Weight with Hypnotherapy in Derby

It is now unfortunately a fact that almost a quarter of the population is now classed as obese, and it continues to rise – despite the fact that we as a population are now more knowledgeable about health & fitness than at any time in the past. I’ve been helping clients to lose weight with Hypnotherapy in Derby for seventeen years and have carried out many thousands of client sessions.

Men and women are both just as likely to be obese, although women are more likely to be morbidly obese (having a body weight high enough to pose a severe risk to health).Obesity is that fleshy accumulation of fat in your body which increases to the degree that it can swiftly increase the chances of health problems that can harm your health and wellbeing, including such problems as heart disease and diabetes. This fat can be fairly evenly distributed around your body or concentrated say on the stomach area (apple-shaped) or your hips and thighs (pear-shaped). It can take years off your life and also impair the quality of life, your self-confidence and esteem.

When working with clients to lose weight with Hypnotherapy in Derby – some can be looking to ‘shape up’, others have discovered that as you get older & your metabolism slows down its easy to put on weight by simply consuming the same amount of food that you’ve always done. Sometimes your lifestyle has meant you’ve snatched meals here & there (usually junk food), used drinking at the end of the day as a way of unwinding (alcohol contains many calories). Others have found that too many takeaways have added to the waistline.

But whatever belies your increased weight gain there is something that you can do about it….you just need to decide to do something about it !

”I just wanted to tell you that following our ‘one off’ session on the 10th April I have in a week lost 7 pounds. As you said I would, I have found that I am simply eating my three meals a day and have not found any urges to either snack or over eat, particularly as you will remember I used to ‘graze’ in the evening. Thank you so much”.

When I’m working with clients to lose weight with Hypnotherapy in Derby its important that you have some goal in mind. So, is it a reduced waistline, or just 1,2 or 3 stones…or dropping a couple of dress sizes. We’ll work together to help you to reach your goal. To be honest I’m often able to carry this out in a one – off session. Everything is of course in the strictest confidence.

Why not contact me now to see how I can help you ?
