Andrew Dobson's Bio

Andrew has been conducting hypnotherapy for many years. His interest in hypnosis began with a combination of an interest in complimentary healing and the less serious idea of creating many of the effects that you are likely to see in a hypnotic stage show. However during his training he witnessed in class, a stroke victim gain control of the paralysis on the left side of her body after 6 months of unsuccessful physiotherapy. So began his serious study of the subject.

Andrew found that although as a lay hypnotist the results with clients were outstanding, the profession did not have the credibility of other professional therapies. He then decided to study Psychology. While his views about hypnosis moved from the more 'complimentary' ideology to a psychological model, he did not, in his clinical training ever find any therapy modalities that created results with such power and efficiency (with the exception of NLP which in itself uses hypnosis).

Andrew is presented with his Hypnotherapy Qualifications in 1992 by Ormond McGill

Andrew has worked in New Zealand conducting seminars for both Government and business employees. Over a period of time he has honed his skills working with people from all walks of life. He utilizes his knowledge in differing communication styles to provide an effective hypnotic session for everyone in these hypnotic sessions.

Hypnosis Works! We know this because there are many psychological studies that demonstrate efficacy as a method of change. There are however there are not as many studies for Hypnosis as there are for traditional psychological interventions, and for this reason hypnosis is often overlook as a method of change. Typically Therapist will use outdated and timely interventions, often lasting several months without any real change in behavior.

Rest assured, hypnosis is completely safe; after all we go into the hypnotic state many times a day (see the Hypnosis section). Although the methods used in these sessions are at cutting edge of technology - they are based on methods that are known to have either been demonstrated to work or shown in clinical studies to show a strong influence
