Hypnosis for Children
Generally, children respond to hypnotic suggestion better than adults because they use their imagination so much more. Children are in and out of hypnosis all day long. Hypnosis is like daydreaming—daydreaming with a purpose. In hypnosis, we use that daydreaming state of mind for a reason—to bring desired changes.
How Hypnosis Helps Children
Hypnosis is beneficial for children's health problems. There are many studies to back this up. Hypnosis also works quickly to relieve the presenting symptoms, but it might take extended psychotherapy to deal with the underlying psychological issues.
​
Of course, hypnosis cannot cure disease or severe medical issues, but when used to treat many conditions, it can be very effective—even in cases where children have severe psychological problems. In severe cases, we work with the child's medical team to get the best outcome possible.
