Exam stress to exam success with hypnotherapy
SERVICES
Chris Battle's experience as an educator and hypnotherapist will help your child be confident in exams and improve their memory.
Does your child start to panic at the first mention of exams? Then you are not alone. Exam nerves and stress happen to most of us. The right amount of stress can motivate us and keep us focused. Too much stress and anxiety and we lose focus on the important things, and our imagination and negative automatic thoughts take over. We start to panic and catastrophise.
NLP hypnotherapy can teach invaluable techniques to improve your memory, revision skills and most importantly to help your child feel confident within themselves that they can recall the information needed at the right time. Clients report that it’s the worry of their mind going blank at that vital moment that causes their anxiety.
Exam success depends as much on your state of mind, as it does on your academic ability. Hypnotherapy can help your child walk into that examination room calm, confident and focused every time.
With the use of a gentle but deep relaxation, the subconscious mind will accept positive suggestions that will help your child strengthen their memory, increase confidence and change the way they think and behave for the better. A relaxed mind is a confident mind that will remember and recall information when needed, leading to exam success.
Would you like your child to be that calm, confident, successful person?
About Chris Battle
UCL graduate Chris Battle has worked with hundreds of students as a teacher and tutor, and found a real need for the service ExamSuccessHypno provides.
Again and again, I had clients who experienced the same problem: the student learned the material to a high standard, on practice papers they could consistently achieve 'A' grades, and then in the real exams their nerves were so bad they would achieve two grades less. For many GCSE and A level students, this had huge consequences on their futures; university course choices were more limited and career prospects too were affected. As a teacher, I started out focusing on raising the knowledge, understanding and exam technique of the student. Eventually, I have come to realise that a huge amount of underachievement occurs because of stress and anxiety - this is the problem that ExamSuccessHypno is designed to help.
Chris is himself a graduate of one of the world's top universities, and has studied neurolinguistic programming to Master Practitioner level with Dr Richard Bandler, joint founder of NLP and teacher to Paul McKenna.

Appointments
All NLP hypnotherapy sessions will be subject to appointment.
Before any fees need to be paid, or any commitment entered into, an initial consulation will need to take place, either by Skype (preferable) or by telephone. During the consultation, Chris will discuss with you and your son/daughter what you want to achieve through NLP hypnotherapy.
It is important to remember that a parent or guardian will need to be present at all times when under-16s are undergoing therapy.
The face-to-face NLP hypnotherapy sessions typically will be:
- First session of 1.5 hours.
- Second session of 1 hour
- Third (and usually final) session of 1 hour (this can be via Skype if necessary).
Three sessions of NLP hypnotherapy are usually what is necessary to achieve a breakthrough in a student's anxiety towards exam situations. Motivation towards school and education in general will improve substantially with this level of hypnotic intervention upon the subconscious mind.
Generally, there should be a minimum of one week - at the most a month - between each session of therapy. Some clients like to continue to have periodic 'top-up' sessions each term or half term, to keep the student's mindset strong, and this can be arranged ad hoc.
During the first session, Chris will begin to assess your problem through a series of questions, taking details of your history connected with the issue and your psychological health. Whilst doing so he will also explain how the mind and therapy works, so you feel informed and comfortable at all times. From this information he should be able to give you a guide to the amount of sessions required and for you to have plenty of opportunity to ask questions, express any concerns etc. He will also introduce you to hypnosis and NLP during this first session.
Subsequent sessions consist of discussion time of your son/daughter's progress and any changes you have noticed, as well as areas they may still need further progress on. NLP hypnotherapy will be continued into subsequent sessions. Wtih each subsequent session there will be continual movement towards your goal, this is your therapy and therefore your input on your progress and any concerns are taken seriously and welcomed.
Chris books appointments to deliver therapy with a number of clients on one day, typically using a meeting room in a hotel or business centre. Current regular locations are: North London (Finchley), Milton Keynes, and Bedford. The exact details of available days and times can be discussed during the initial conversation.
