My name is Judit Hertel, and I am a clinical psychologist and hypnotherapist.
Do not hesitate to make an appointment for consultation if:
- you want to improve your self-knowledge
- you are facing difficulties in certain life situations (e.g. relationship issues, parenting issues)
- you are struggling with mental illness (e.g. depression, anxiety, panic attacks, etc.)
During hypnotherapy, we try to reach our goals by revealing and coping with the causes of psychological problems, without medication, if possible.
Essentially, in one part of the session, we create an altered state of consciousness by using relaxation techniques. We try to locate the unconscious roots of the patient's problems through this altered state of consciousness.
Mental images give us a better understanding of the problems.
I use hypnotherapy as a complement to the traditional talk therapy, incorporating it into the therapeutic process.
A long therapy is required in the case of problems that have been present for years or decades, with a therapy period of at least 6 months or even years.
We start our work with an experimental therapy of 3-5 sessions before the actual therapy takes place, in order to get to know each other better and to see how the method works for the patient.
As a clinical psychologist, I am also qualified to apply therapy in the case of the following mental disorders:
- Affective disorders (depression, bipolar disorder)
- Neurotic disorders (phobias, panic disorder)
- Anxiety
- OCD and compulsive behaviour
- Schizophrenia
- Stress disorders
- Somatisation disorders
- Eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia)
- Sleeping disorders
- Sexual disorders
- Postnatal depression
- Personality disorders (e.g. BDP, dependent personality disorder, etc.)
A similar method is applied to the various mental disorders, but during the altered state of consciousness, the guided imagery, used in order to evoke and generate mental images, is different.
Therapy may be financed through a health-care fund, in which case the session is billed tax-free.
I hold the required qualifications and licences.
