Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is a gentle, evidence-informed therapeutic approach that supports emotional wellbeing, behaviour change, and personal growth for children aged 6 and above, adolescents, and adults.
At Sprout in Motion, hypnotherapy is used as a guided, relaxed state of focused attention. It is not mind control. Clients remain fully aware, in control, and able to stop or adjust the process at any time. This calm and focused state allows individuals to access inner resources, build insight, and create positive change in a safe and supportive environment.
How Hypnotherapy Helps
Hypnotherapy can be effective for individuals experiencing emotional challenges, life transitions, behavioural concerns, or a desire for personal growth. Sessions are always tailored to the individual’s age, needs, and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is hypnotherapy safe for children?
Yes. Hypnotherapy is a safe, gentle approach when delivered by a trained professional. For children aged 6 and above, sessions are adapted to their developmental level and often use imagination, storytelling, and age-appropriate language. Children remain aware and in control throughout the session.
Will my child (or I) lose control during hypnotherapy?
No. Hypnotherapy is not mind control. Clients stay conscious, aware, and able to stop or change the process at any time. It is a state of focused attention and relaxation—similar to daydreaming or becoming absorbed in a story.
What concerns can hypnotherapy help with?
Hypnotherapy may support concerns such as anxiety, stress, phobias, trauma-related experiences, sleep difficulties, emotional regulation, habit change, confidence building, and personal growth. It can be used on its own or alongside other therapies when appropriate.
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions varies depending on the individual’s goals, age, and needs. Some clients notice changes within a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support. A personalised plan is discussed after the initial consultation.
