What is the difference between Counselling Psychology Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy?

–

Counselling is a short-term conscious level treatment that places emphasis on a specific symptom or immediate issues. Counsellors help their patients identify, define, and work through emotional, social, or educational issues they may be struggling with. It involves discussion with your therapist to explore and work through your issues, eventually coming to your own resolutions.

Psychology is a long-term approach focussing on human emotions and behaviour with a heavy focus on science based practice.

Psychotherapy is an approach that provides long-term relief with a deeper focus on human behaviour and emotions on a conscious and subconscious level. Psychotherapists aim to explore, unravel, and address elements of a patient’s psychological history. Hypnotherapy is usually a blend of counselling, psychotherapy and hypnosis as a therapeutic tool. It involves being put into a trance state and your subconscious mind opening up to the positive suggestions that the therapist plants. This is where it is important to have a qualified therapist working with you.
