About Jacqueline Inglis

In addition to being a Hypnotherapoist she is a qualified Yoga teacher and has taught yoga and relaxation for many years. This along with her own experience of hypnotherapy (to enable me to pass my driving test) has led her to an awareness of how we can all gain positive control of our lives. She has trained at the Clifton Practice under the tutelage of David Newton.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy

Hypnosis has been used for many years as a way of allowing people to make positive changes to their lives. It is also used as a way of managing pain, anxiety levels, phobias, habits such as smoking and specific areas such as trauma or bereavement.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy uses practical, modern and well researched strategies to help people make significant, positive changes in their lives in a relatively short period of time. Working with Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, we look at what the client wants to achieve rather than on the problem(s) that prompted them to seek change.

The approach focuses on the present and future and not on the past. The Hypnotherapist asks the client to consider their preferred future, for instance, what would be better if the problem had improved? What would have changed?  This enables the client's possible solutions to become more apparent and worked towards. 

Hypnotherapy can be successful where other therapies are not. It works by bypassing the conscious mind, where our logical thought processes take place and can have a positive impact in many areas. The following list is an example of some of the areas that can benefit: 

  •  Confidence
  •  Goal Achievement
  •  Weight Management
  •  General Anxiety / Exam Nerves
