Hypnotherapy will help you perform to the best of your abilities.
We cater for all standards, from amateur to professionals.
At top level the difference between success and failure is small.
Hypnotherapy can provide you with that important edge.
For example, all footballers know that they should score from the penalty spot but it is a fact that when under pressure the likelihood of a penalty being missed greatly increases due to anxiety. Similarly in snooker, an easy pot becomes a difficult one when the outcome of the frame is at stake.
Such scenarios are repeated in most sports.
The combination of hypnotherapy and cognitive behavioural therapy helps the sportsperson to anticipate and overcome such moments of anxiety.
Hypnotherapy helps sportspeople achieve their full potential by eliminating a fear of failure that may be holding them back. Lack of self-belief often means that a person has set his or her sights too low. This is as true off the sportsfield as it is on. Most people are capable of achieving a great deal more than they thought, or were led to believe possible.
Leeds Hypnotherapy Clinic practitioner Daniel L. McDermid is a former professional sportsman himself. He has a vast understanding of how the pressure of sport can undermine an athletes ability to realise his or hers full potential. He also recognises how anxiety can cause an athlete to withdraw physically from a competition. Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT) is used to give the amateur or professional athlete an understanding of his or her condition. This process allows athletes to gain the confidence to perform to the best of their natural capability.
