My name is Chris Gelder,

I am a qualified and registered Lancashire Hypnotherapist based in Leyland, and I can help you achieve effective Positive Personal Change.

Positive Personal Change for you may be to stop smoking, lose some weight, get rid of a phobia that stops you enjoying your life fully, or help you beat the stress and strain of everyday life, or it may be something completely different.
Hypnotherapy is extremely effective
for the treatment of these and many more conditions.

Have a look at my web pages as you may be surprised to discover how hypnotherapy can help with many more conditions than those normally associated with Hypnotherapy, and typically these can be as diverse as IBS, PTSD, Panic attacks and increasing self confidence.

The list is long, as anything that stress makes worse, hypnosis can make better.

I look forward to working with you.

Chris Gelder

ABOUT PSYCHOTHERAPY...

The aim of Psychotherapy is to help you think and feel differently, to explore and understand the issues in your life that are causing you problems, and to support you in bringing about positive personal change.

It is generally more intensive than Counselling - and may involve attending several sessions a week over a period of months, and sometimes years. It can be given on a one-to-one basis, and also to couples, families or groups.

Psychotherapy is often used to deal with long standing psychological problems that have built up over a period of time, and although the therapy can sometimes be a painful process, it can also be a liberating experience, as you open up to new creative ways of thinking and behaviour.

There are many branches of psychotherapy available, and therapists may specialise in different techniques. These can vary from the 'talking' therapies to more active ways of expression, such as creative arts, drama and music therapy.

The various approaches range from humanistic, person-centred and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), to the more analytical types such as psychoanalytical psychotherapy, and some therapists offer an integrated approach, incorporating different methods. You may come across numerous named techniques under the umbrella of 'psychotherapy' - however, they're usually just variations of the few basic types, which have been developed in recent years.

For treatment to be successful, psychotherapy requires a relationship built on trust between the client and the therapist. Therefore it's always advisable to make sure your therapist is well qualified and experienced (see Disclaimer below). Psychotherapists are usually registered with at least one of the professional organisations, and should work within a strict code of practice.

As one method may be more appropriate for your needs than another, it's a good idea to find out exactly what's available and what each type can help with, before embarking on any course of therapy.

For more specific information, please refer to the individual therapists' listings on this page, or visit the websites of the Psychotherapy organisations on our Addresses & Info page (see below). You can also find a wealth of useful information on the 'Mind' charity website: www.mind.org.co.uk/Information.htm
