Psychology & Psychotherapy

Hypnosis for Therapeutic Purposes
European Accredited Academy of Psychotherapy @ Vives - KU Leuven
In times where a picture or a video is worth a thousand words, the power of the visualisation becomes more and more important.
This intense course of hypnotherapy taught me how to use the power of the mind to improve (sports) performances, enhance self-esteem, cope with anxieties and stress and transform performance-limiting mindsets into performance-enhancing ones.
A really powerful tool to overcome deep-rooted behaviours still used to little in the business world.
