Physical Abuse Ireland
Hi, my name is Paul Hunter. If you’ve googled “physical abuse” you’ve come to the right page.
I am a Clinical Hypnotherapist, cbt practitioer and Life Coach based in Ballincollig in Cork. Over the past fifteen years, I have helped many victims of abuse to overcome the psychological scars of their trauma.
The bruises heal but the long term damage is to your self esteem and confidence. Through the years I have had many victims telling me of how they barely had the confidence to look a person in the eye any longer.
I believe we all deserve a shot at being happy. I also believe that no-one has the right to take that away from us.
You know how to be happy. It’s still inside of you. It’s been there from the moment you were born. With my help, you can uncover it again, and feel like you deserve to be happy and secure.
Hypnosis can help you to imagine, rehearse and believe something that the conscious mind simply can’t, or won’t believe. Many abuse victims simply can’t imagine having a happy life again.
