About Me:
About Me

I became interested in hypnosis when I was on holiday in Tenerife and saw a stage hypnosis show in which some of my friends took part. I knew them well enough to know they weren’t faking it.

About two weeks after coming back from holiday, I saw an advert in a newspaper about an NLP course with Paul McKenna and decided to attend. I had never heard of NLP; I didn’t even know what NLP stood for. I just thought it must be something to do with hypnosis because Paul McKenna was a hypnotist.

Following this, I decided to learn more about hypnosis but couldn’t afford to pay thousands of pounds for training courses so I joined lots of hypnosis forums and read books recommended on these, plus suggested reading lists from some hypnosis courses. I also bought video and home study courses and followed these for about three years before going on one and two day hypnosis courses.

After this, I decided hypnotherapy was something I would like to choose as a career. So I researched which courses were the best available and decided to take a course with Terence Watts, who teaches hypnoanalysis, and Stephen Brooks, who teaches Ericksonian hypnosis.

By the time I had finished these courses, I had accumulated a wealth of theoretical knowledge and practical experience, but did not feel confident enough to start charging clients because I was only new and I thought that maybe I would not be able to help people.

So I decided to go and see the best therapists in the UK and the US and have some sessions with them so that I could see what therapy was like outside the classroom, and also to benefit from the therapy itself. I decided that I would only see people with at least ten years’ experience because I thought I could learn from their experience.

Afterwards, I looked around for places where I could start working with real clients and since then, I’ve worked at a hospital, in a women’s shelter, given talks to groups, worked with company executives on stress management. I’ve also worked with lots of sports people because this is what I’ve chosen to specialise in.

Hey Tom,

I just read your post on the sports hypnosis group and I want to thank you for the documented study about hip flexor strength improvement via mind training. I have long heard of a same kind of experiment in Australia with free-throw shooting but could never find documentation. Do you know how to get a copy of the actual hip flexor study?

And, I'm very impressed with your credentials and website, it looks that you are doing very well for yourself.

Back @ ya - Michael E... You made a statement: This is one of those topics that many Hypnosis Practitioners have difficulty discussing. It seems to provoke a lot of emotion that can be "uncomfortable" to tolerate/experience. I wondered if you conn…

Michael, I’m not sure what you’re “just asking”. I’m not up on the “leading adult theories” regarding the accuracy of memory related to negative emotional experience. It’s my understanding that when someone is experiencing “fight/flight stress”,…

Devin a few months ago I created a group called "dual inductions" as a way for people to discuss paraliminals aka dual inductions. If you search for dual inductions in the group search function you'll find it. Antonio best of luck
