Hypnotherapy can help children with DYS disorders, whether with managing emotions, memorisation, school phobia<\/a> or self-esteem. Beyond the reluctance often felt towards the discipline itself, parents have a role to play in fostering the therapeutic bond<\/strong>, but this means setting a very clear framework with them before the first session. Here’s how.<\/p>\n

Demystifying hypnosis<\/h2>\n

Whatever the nature of the disorder (dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia\u2026), hypnosis can address its consequences<\/strong> for the child, namely a lack of self-esteem and confidence. It can also help with restlessness, stress and attention difficulties<\/strong> caused by ADHD<\/a> (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).<\/p>\n

Contrary to popular belief, hypnosis doesn’t allow anyone to control the patient<\/strong> or make them do things they don’t want to do. This discipline helps children better understand their own sensations and emotions.<\/p>\n

Since the most imaginative people, and those best able to concentrate, tend to enter a hypnotic state more easily, children, with their great imagination, let themselves be guided easily<\/strong> towards greater wellbeing. But the effectiveness of the session depends on their own willingness to take part.<\/p>\n

Parents, allies in treating a child with DYS<\/h2>\n

When a child with DYS is brought in for consultation by their parents, the hypnotherapist takes time to ask them about their perception of the discipline<\/strong>: do they have any fears or concerns? The aim is to explain hypnosis and dispel any worries about the child being manipulated in some way.<\/p>\n

Once the common misconceptions about hypnosis in children<\/a> have been cleared up, the next step is to clarify the role parents play in the therapeutic approach<\/strong>. From them, the professional gathers valuable information: the child’s environment, favourite activities, interests, behaviour\u2026 all essential data for getting to know the patient better<\/strong> and building trust between the two of them.<\/p>\n

Before the first session, the hypnotherapist asks the child about their own expectations, which may not be the same as their parents’<\/strong>. Indeed, a child with DYS may raise a difficulty that isn’t the one their parents would have highlighted, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

Parents taking part in sessions<\/h2>\n

If the child has agreed to it<\/strong>, parents can take part in the first hypnosis session. However, since their presence increases the likelihood of performance anxiety, which could jeopardise the session’s success, it’s generally best not to favour this option. In fact, from age 5 onwards<\/strong>, the hypnotic experience is usually carried out without the parents present<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
