How exactly does regression work?

By this we mean going back in time by using all the information stored in our brains, especially in our subconscious. Because consciousness is reduced during hypnosis, the critical thinking brain is in the background, leaving more room for your subconscious thoughts. In light hypnosis, all kinds of images and feelings from the past can be uncovered.

For regression, we want to achieve a deeper trance, for which we use various “induction” techniques. In deep hypnosis, memories can go back to childhood and sometimes even to the womb, and for those who believe in reincarnation, you can indeed go further back to previous lives.

Sometimes we also get questions about “recreational regression”, in other words, simply seeing who or what you were in previous lives for fun. That is also possible. We take plenty of time to bring you into a state of deep relaxation and then “see” what comes to the surface.

Healing old pain

Once insight has been gained into the cause of the current problem, “healing’ can take place. Sometimes, seeing things through today's eyes is enough to make the undesirable effect disappear. In other cases, more work is needed, but that can also be done directly in the session with me. Because the issues being worked on have often been with you for a long time, the session can evoke intense (often liberating) emotions. In principle, a single session is enough to set a lot in motion.

Do I need to believe in hypnosis to be able to undergo regression?

That is not necessary, and you are certainly allowed to be critical beforehand. To experience good hypnosis, an open and curious attitude is most effective.

Frequently asked questions

Isn't hypnosis very scary?

No, hypnosis is a wonderful thing to experience and a very special experience. Read the questions and answers below.

Is one hypnosis session really enough? Or does it only have an effect after several sessions?

In most cases, yes. Hypnosis is an incredibly powerful tool.

The hypnotist uses the word ‘sleep’. Will I actually fall asleep?

No, you are not actually going to sleep. You are simply conscious and can hear everything. However, your brain knows exactly what is meant by the command ‘sleep’ and will give you a nudge to relax more quickly and deeply or to go straight into hypnosis.

How does it feel to be under hypnosis?

Anyone who has ever been hypnotised will agree: it is a fantastic experience.

What is the difference between a hypnotist and a hypnotherapist?

A hypnotist is an expert in the field of hypnosis and not a therapist. They can usually help you resolve your problem in a single session. As a hypnotherapist and coach, I have completed a six-year training programme and can provide you with insight into the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of a problem, which we can then work together to identify and resolve. This usually requires one to three sessions.  It is also possible to follow an additional coaching programme after the hypnotherapy.

Can I get stuck in hypnosis?

No, this is not possible. The hypnotist will end the hypnosis, or you can stop the process yourself.

Can the hypnotist make me do things I don't want to do?

No, that is impossible. A hypnotist can only make you ‘do things’ that you would also do in everyday life. If you would morally reject something or normally never do something, you will not do it under hypnosis either.

Can anyone be hypnotised?

In principle, anyone who is willing can be hypnotised. Only people with intellectual disabilities or mental disorders cannot be hypnotised.

Can I be hypnotised against my will?

No, your willingness is necessary to achieve a state of hypnosis.

Can I be hypnotised without knowing it?

This is also not possible. No willingness is not hypnosis.

How long does a session last?

A session lasts approximately 45 minutes, including the preliminary discussion. During this preliminary discussion, we discuss the pitfalls, wishes and expectations. In the case of hypnotherapy, the session can sometimes run a little longer, up to approximately 1.5 hours.

My problem relates to a painful issue that I would rather not discuss. Can hypnosis still help me?

Yes, that is possible. In the case of direct hypnosis, it is not necessary to know the background of a problem or to bring up painful issues. You tell us what is bothering you and what your wishes are. We will then work in your subconscious to bring about the desired changes.

How long will it take before I see results?

In many cases, you will see immediate results after the session. In some cases, such as weight management, it may take a while before you see results.

How long will the changes last?

In almost all cases, the changes are immediate and permanent.

How will I feel after a session?

You feel relaxed, refreshed and fantastic.

Can I hypnotise myself?

Yes, you can. Self-hypnosis can be learned. However, it is not as powerful as being hypnotised. In one session, I can provide you with a tool to make it easier for you to do this yourself.
