Amanda Dounis - Working Successfully with Kids, Teens and Tweens
Do you know that hypnosis can help kids and teens cope with stress, anxiety, and even overcome bad habits? Many hypnotherapists shy away from working with young people for various reasons. The art of hypnosis has been used for decades to help people overcome their fears and phobias. And, contrary to popular belief, hypnosis is a safe and effective way to improve mental health in people of all ages.
Amanda has been working with kids for many years. She is down to earth and resonates kindness.
How Does Hypnosis Help Kids and Teens and How is it Different to Adults?
Reducing Anxiety and Stress - Kids and teens experience stress without the hindsight that adults have. As adults it is easy to say “You will be ok” but as a child with no experience with the issue it can feel as though the whole world is against you. Anxiety and stress are common in kids and teens, especially in today's fast-paced world. Our young people are pressured to achieve more, in less time whilst multitasking - OOOF!!! thats brutal.
Back in my day Sunday’s were the day of rest and as much as we always had “work” to do on the farm their was no social/tech distractions or shops open. It was purely a day to disconnect and reconnect with your living environment.Overcoming Bad Habits and Phobias - Amanda has helped little ones using hypnosis/nlp communication to overcome bad habits such as nail-biting, bed-wetting, and thumb-sucking. By accessing the subconscious mind, the hypnotist can help young people change their behavior patterns.
But how do you get a child into hypnosis when they wont sit still? Amanda has the experience and answers for you at the conference.
Improving Self-Esteem and Confidence - Low self-esteem and lack of confidence can be debilitating for young people. With the body changing and growing it can be confusing as to where your going and who you feel confortable with. A lack of supportive home life can also contribute to this. Hypnosis can help young people develop a more positive self-image and improve their confidence.
Hypnosis can also assist with sleep improvement, study focus and more!
