How Telford Hypnotherapy can help sufferers of shy bladder is by identifying any underlying cause of anxiety or lack of confidence which may be a contributing factor in stimulating an extreme self consciousness, in the sufferer.

 

"At this point, I think that inappropriate or dysfunctional self-consciousness is the common factor that runs through all the variations of the problem".

In some cases the origins of this inability to urinate in the company of others can be linked back to experiences in childhood, for others the reasons may be more hidden.

Recent investigations have estimated that some 17 million people can suffer with this disorder, also known as bashful bladder, or Shy-Pee.  The inability to urinate in public rest rooms can have a debilitating affect, restricting everyday interaction with friends and family and resulting in increasing isolation and loss of self esteem.  

In addition to discovering any underlying cause I can help you to increase your confidence and overcome any loss of self esteem that may have occurred because of  this largely misunderstood complaint.  At Telford Hypnotherapy I offer a caring and completely confidential service that encourages frank and open discussion about this and other problems.
