Mental health disorders and dual diagnosis conditions affect millions of individuals across the country. From anxiety and depression to substance use disorders and trauma-related conditions, the burden of these challenges can deeply impact one’s quality of life. When mental health issues co-occur with substance abuse, known as dual diagnosis, the path to recovery can be more complex and requires an integrated, holistic treatment plan.
At Stone River Behavioral Health in Holmdel, NJ, we understand the intricate relationship between mental health and dual diagnosis. Our mission is to empower individuals to find clarity, balance, and long-term healing through evidence-based and alternative therapies. One of our most transformative offerings is hypnotherapy, a therapeutic approach that helps clients unlock the subconscious mind and access inner resources for change. With professional guidance, our hypnotherapy services offer a safe and effective method for healing emotional wounds, addressing mental health challenges, and supporting long-term recovery.
- What Does Hypnotherapy Look Like?
What Is Hypnotherapy and What Does It Involve?
Hypnotherapy is a form of guided therapy that uses relaxation, focused attention, and suggestion to achieve a heightened state of awareness known as a trance. In this state, individuals are more open to therapeutic guidance, making it easier to explore unresolved emotions, challenge negative patterns, and adopt healthier behaviors. Contrary to popular misconceptions, hypnotherapy is not mind control or stage hypnosis—clients remain fully aware and in control during sessions.
A hypnotherapy session at Stone River Behavioral Health typically begins with a calming induction process, guiding the client into a deeply relaxed yet focused state. From there, the therapist may use direct suggestions, visualization techniques, and regression therapy to address the underlying causes of emotional distress or behavioral challenges. Each session is personalized to meet the unique needs and goals of the client, with the pace and focus tailored to their comfort level.
Our certified hypnotherapists work alongside our broader clinical team to integrate hypnotherapy into the individual’s comprehensive treatment plan. Whether used as a standalone technique or in conjunction with cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma work, or addiction recovery programs, hypnotherapy plays a powerful role in achieving long-term mental and emotional well-being.
Who Can Benefit from Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a versatile and inclusive treatment option that can help a wide range of individuals, especially those who have not found lasting relief through traditional methods. It is especially effective for individuals who are open to alternative therapies and are motivated to explore the mind-body connection as part of their healing process.
Hypnotherapy can help quiet the racing mind, reduce physical symptoms of stress, and instill a greater sense of calm and control. Clients with chronic anxiety or mood disorders often find it easier to manage emotional regulation through regular hypnotherapy sessions.
Hypnotherapy is particularly beneficial for those who have experienced trauma. It can help clients access repressed memories, reduce flashbacks, and shift the emotional intensity associated with past experiences, making trauma processing more manageable.
For those navigating substance use disorders, hypnotherapy can target the psychological drivers behind addiction. It can reduce cravings, increase motivation, and strengthen inner resolve to remain on the path to recovery.
Hypnotherapy is also ideal for clients looking to overcome phobias, improve sleep, manage chronic pain, or eliminate negative habits like smoking or overeating. It works by addressing the subconscious belief systems that often drive unwanted behaviors.

Benefits of Hypnotherapy for Mental Health and Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Hypnotherapy offers a range of benefits when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. It is non-invasive, drug-free, and rooted in empowerment, helping clients build resilience from within.
Promotes Deep Relaxation and Stress Reduction
One of the most immediate effects of hypnotherapy is a deep sense of calm. This state of relaxation can lower cortisol levels, slow the heart rate, and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. Over time, consistent hypnotherapy can help reduce chronic stress levels and improve overall emotional regulation.
Accesses the Subconscious Mind
Traditional talk therapy works primarily with the conscious mind. Hypnotherapy dives deeper, helping clients uncover subconscious thoughts, memories, and beliefs that may be contributing to their distress or dysfunction. This approach allows clients to break long-standing behavioral cycles rooted in unconscious patterns.
Supports Trauma Processing
For clients dealing with trauma, hypnotherapy allows a safe and contained space to revisit difficult memories without becoming overwhelmed. This can help reduce symptoms of PTSD and support emotional integration. It provides a gentle yet effective method to release stored trauma and promote healing from within.
Enhances Other Therapeutic Modalities
Hypnotherapy can be a valuable addition to other forms of treatment, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), or EMDR. It amplifies the impact of these approaches by fostering openness and mental clarity. Clients often report deeper breakthroughs in therapy when hypnotherapy is used as a complementary technique.
Encourages Positive Behavioral Change
Whether it’s overcoming addiction, managing anxiety, or building self-confidence, hypnotherapy helps instill new, empowering beliefs. Clients often report greater motivation, focus, and follow-through after just a few sessions. The enhanced self-awareness from hypnotherapy contributes to long-lasting personal growth and stability.
