In our exploration of various therapeutic modalities, hypnotherapy often emerges as an intriguing yet misunderstood field. I want to see if I can demystify hypnotherapy for some of you by steering clear from popular misconceptions of stage hypnosis and instead, draw an analogy to a lighthouse guiding vessels through stormy seas.
