What is the difference between hypnotherapy & counselling?

​Hypnotherapy and counseling are both forms of therapy that aim to help individuals overcome emotional or psychological difficulties. However, they differ in their methods and techniques.

Hypnotherapy involves inducing a state of hypnosis, which is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility. During hypnosis, the individual is guided through various techniques to help them access their subconscious mind, where they may be able to identify and address deeper issues that may be causing their problems. Hypnotherapy can be particularly useful for individuals who have difficulty accessing and expressing their emotions, as well as for those who may benefit from changing their deeply ingrained thought patterns or behaviors.
Counseling, on the other hand, typically involves talking with a trained professional who can provide support, guidance, and advice. Counseling may involve techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which aims to help individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors, or interpersonal therapy (IPT), which focuses on improving relationships and social skills. Counseling can be useful for individuals who need a safe and supportive environment to discuss their feelings, as well as for those who may benefit from learning coping skills.
