Hypnotherapist deals with depression in Sheffield

[jimmymcnulty]

There is no empirical evidence that hypnotherapy helps depression.

 

 

Is there an qualified, reputable hypnotherapist in Sheffield who deals with depression?

 

Thanks

For my money, if your suffering from depression you need to deal with the root cause, if its something like being lonely, then the best thing you can do is join a group and meet others. Whatever you enjoy it could be walking, playing music, joining a dance class, joining a debating society etc......if you get out of the home, then thats an example of dealing with the root cause.

 

There are things that are more complicated, I would imagine having very little money is the worst at this present time. YOu struggle to pay the bills, you have no money left over (or are sliding further into debt) so you can't get out because you can't afford to, so you become more isolated etc.....

maybe try this lady , http://www.dianaluke.org/index.html she is lovely she will listen and help you make good choices for you. She also does counselling and has loads of qualifications , she is good I know a few people who have been helped by her and I myself have spoken with her, she really helped me make pretty tough choices through and tough period in my life , I can honestly say If i hadn't done this i wouldn't be the person I am today.

Another vote for Diana Luke , she has been very helpful to me in the past , with depression over my disabilities and the future. In my opinion you couldn't wish for a nicer therapist.

I googled Diana's name as it rang a bell, she was a radio presenter on a show I listened to many years ago.

I remember her having a lovely voice, would make a great hypnotherapist.

Not only is Diana good at hypnosis, she is a very genuinely very nice person. I would highly recommend Diana Luke to anyone looking for hypnosis.

Seen a counsellor and it did nothing. GP talked about hypnosis and she said she's knon patients to have good results from it.

 

 

if the GP is recommending hypnotherapy i'd suggest that you ask her to refer you to a specialist on the NHS

 

 

The NICE guidelines recommend Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for depression. NICE is the Government's service that makes recommendations / writes guidelines for Doctor's etc to follow about the most effective way to investigate / treat lots of conditions. You can find the NICE guidelines on Depression at http://publications.nice.org.uk/treating-depression-in-adults-ifp90

 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy but is different to counselling. It is available on the NHS - usually at your GP surgery. You can find out more about CBT at http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Cognitive-behavioural-therapy/Pages/Introduction.aspx

 

CBT is free on the NHS but if you want to go elsewhere and pay a friend was treated by Maria at http://www.collinsdonnelly.co.uk/page.php?domain_name=collinsdonnelly.co.uk&viewpage=Profile

 

 

There's even online versions of CBT that are recommended by NICE - you can find more details about this and the other services available in Sheffield at

I know it isn't hypnotherapy but hope this is helpful
