Listen to the welcome message by Dr Axel Wuerz:
Welcome and thank you for your interest in hypnosis
If this sounds encouraging to you, please explore this web-site further to find out more about the therapy I offer.
You may have come to this web-site because you want to find out more about hypnotherapy. Maybe you want to achieve a certain goal or you are currently facing a physical or psychological problem that you want help with.
Whatever it is, I cannot make you loose weight, magically take away your pain, instantly change your mood or alter your habits with a click of my fingers. This may sound surprising in an age where some therapists claim to be able to do all that.
What I offer is to use all my experience in hypnosis, medicine, mental health and neuroscience in order to enable you to achieve your goals and learn to overcome your problems. This difference is crucial, because I, like many experienced therapists, am convinced that any true and enduring change can only occur by helping the person seeking treatment to learn how to use the multitude of their internal resources to make the desired changes. The improvements are achieved by the person, not by the therapist or hypnosis. Hypnosis is a powerful tool to access the internal resources, enhance self-control and achieve the desired changes. The therapist's role is to use all his skills to help and guide along this way.
In this sense the saying "Give a starving man a fish and he will not suffer hunger for one day. But teach a starving man how to fish and he will not suffer hunger ever again" is also true for achieving personal goals and coping with physical or psychological problems.
