What is hypnosis?
Noni's work is grounded in the philosophy of hypnosis taught by Milton Erickson who believed in the power of our unconscious to facilitate personal healing.

All experiences and insights come from and are directed by the client's own inner knowledge.

The technique Noni is most passionate about and uses mostly is Ego State Therapy. This works respectfully and gently with conflicted parts of the personality to bring about understanding, insight, harmony - and with that, change.

Hypnosis or trance is an everyday experience very like being absorbed in a good book or an engrossing film. It’s simply a state of focused awareness, sometimes deeper, and sometimes lighter.

Why use hypnosis?
When you can't think yourself out of behaving in a way that is distressing to you, then hypnotherapy can help. When a part of you feels one way and another part of you feels the other, hypnotherapy helps you find the place of no conflict. Perhaps you want to stop smoking but part of you loves to smoke; or part of you feels too afraid to do what another part of you really wants to do. When you hear yourself say "I hate it when I do that!" then hypnotherapy can help.

What will I experience?
Trance is a gentle but powerful experience. You’ll feel connected, centred, empowered and quiet inside. Because Ego State needs only a light to medium state of trance, a lot of the time you'll feel like you're just sitting there with your eyes shut having a strange and often highly emotional conversation.

Will I lose control?
You are always in control with hypnosis. You go as deeply or as lightly into trance as you choose.
