The
Clinics
The BST Foundation private clinics were established over
ten years ago with the principal aim of goal directed treatment
for a range of psychological and behavioural problems. The
Foundation's consultants have gained a reputation for successful
and rapid treatment of many problems, frequently within
1-3 consultations and their techniques have been featured
in several articles on both National TV and in the press.
A range of behavioural problems respond to clinical hypnotherapy

The
primary BST Foundation clinic is situated in Harley Street,
London with additional smaller clinics in Surrey.
The
Treatment - What's Involved
Consultations
last about an hour and a half and are conducted on a one
to one basis. During the consultation the therapist takes
a full case history & assesses the problem. This is
followed by a thorough explanation of the treatment where
any questions you have can be answered.
The
length of therapy will depend on the nature of the problem,
however the clinics specialise in brief therapy aiming to
achieve quick results, often within 1-3 consultations. Fees
will vary depending on which clinic you attend and will
be requested at the end of each consultation.
Clinical
Hypnotherapy
The
hypnotic experience varies from one person to another, but
generally involves natural deep states of relaxation (in
which you can access subconscious resources to facilitate
positive change in your life.) This naturally relaxed state
allows you to establish appropriate new beliefs and act
upon them, resulting in you breaking unwanted habits, changing
your behaviour patterns and overcoming limiting beliefs.
Throughout
the hypnotic experience, you remain in full control and
are not unconscious or asleep. Most patients experience
a great feeling of well being and a more positive outlook
after each consultation.
Brief
& Strategic Therapy
Brief therapy involves a range of rapid, modern
therapeutic approaches to specifically treat anxiety problems.
The approaches are based upon a psychological understanding
of how our minds can learn to cope with stress and anxiety
and also overcome fearful situations. The therapy is goal
directed and aims to create change within 1-3 sessions.
It will also equip you with ongoing successful strategies
to cope with future life stress.
