Uncovering the Root Cause: A Holistic Approach to Lasting Change

At Light Manor Hypnotherapy, we recognize that each client’s journey is unique. Some individuals are deeply curious about uncovering the root cause of their challenges, while others are more focused on finding effective solutions. This distinction shapes how we approach hypnotherapy.

We often ask, “If your issue could be resolved without identifying its cause, would that be acceptable to you?” While tools like regression can be valuable in identifying underlying causes, they serve a greater purpose: achieving meaningful results.

​

Resolving the Issue, Not Just Reliving the Past

​

Most clients come to us with the goal of resolving their concerns, trusting the guidance and expertise of their hypnotherapist. Even if terms like "age regression" are unfamiliar, many are open to exploring their past or addressing underlying patterns to bring about change.

Importantly, our approach is not about revisiting numerous past events. Instead, we focus on the key moments that reveal the root cause of the issue. By understanding this core process, we avoid unnecessary content and concentrate on the minimal information needed to create lasting change.

​

Addressing Perceived vs. Actual Causes

​

Sometimes, clients arrive with a strong belief about the cause of their issue and how it should be addressed. For example, someone struggling with overeating might attribute it to their carb intake and ask for suggestions to avoid bread. Through careful conversation, we might uncover that the overeating stems from emotional distress, such as unresolved issues in a relationship.

If we only addressed the surface symptom—binge eating—the results might be temporary. Instead, we guide clients to see that resolving the deeper emotional cause leads to long-term success. With clear communication and mutual agreement, most clients are open to this more comprehensive approach.

​

Overcoming Resistance to Emotional Work

​

Not everyone is comfortable addressing emotional roots. Some clients may ask for a quick fix or a visualization to “magically” stop the behavior. While these techniques can offer temporary relief, they don’t address the underlying cause of the issue.

Through education, thoughtful discussion, and pre-session consultations, we help clients understand the value of addressing both symptoms and root causes. For clients who remain resistant, we conduct assessments to determine whether hypnotherapy is the right fit for their needs.

By focusing on understanding and resolving the deeper issues at play, we aim to provide clients with meaningful, lasting results. At Light Manor Hypnotherapy, your well-being is our priority.
