Read below to find out how I can help you lead a happier, healthier life. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have or to book in your free consultation.
Anxiety & Stress
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy offers a powerful tool for managing anxiety and stress by promoting relaxation and tapping into the subconscious mind to reframe negative thought patterns. Hypnosis induces a deep state of relaxation, allowing you to access your inner resources and develop coping strategies to manage stressors more effectively. Using a combination of hypnosis, NLP, CBT and solution focused talking therapy, I help my clients gain a greater sense of control over their emotions and responses, leading to a calmer, more balanced state of mind. With regular sessions, you can experience lasting relief from anxiety symptoms and develop a renewed sense of confidence and resilience in facing life's challenges.
Confidence & Self Esteem
Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool for enhancing confidence and self-belief by accessing the subconscious mind and rewiring limiting beliefs. Through guided relaxation and visualisation techniques, hypnotherapy helps you uncover and challenge negative self-talk, replacing it with positive affirmations and empowering beliefs. By creating a state of deep relaxation, hypnotherapy allows you to access your inner resources, fostering a strong sense of self-assurance and belief in your abilities. My goal is to help you experience a powerful improvement in your self-confidence, enabling you to approach challenges with courage, resilience, and a newfound belief in your potential for success.
Perimenopause & Menopause
Hypnotherapy provides a gentle and empowering avenue for alleviating peri and menopause symptoms. With a focus on reducing stress and promoting relaxation, I employ metaphors and positive suggestions to directly target the subconscious mind. Using a solution-focused approach, we leverage your inner strengths, challenge the inner critic and instil confidence, peace and happiness. Hypnotherapy can help you to tap into your innate resources, fostering resilience and promoting overall well-being during this transitional phase of life. This holistic approach not only helps manage symptoms like hot flushes, mood swings and poor sleep but also fosters a positive mindset that allows you to embrace the menopausal journey with confidence.

Low Mood & Overwhelm
Solution-focused hypnotherapy offers a positive, forward thinking and empowering approach to addressing low mood and enhancing overall happiness. My aim is to help you identify your strengths and resources, guiding you towards your goals through small, achievable steps. Solution-focused hypnotherapy promotes a shift in mindset, allowing you to cultivate a more positive outlook on life. With regular sessions, you can experience a profound transformation in your mood and well-being, leading to increased happiness, resilience, and fulfilment in life.
Sleep Issues
We all know what a difference a good night’s sleep makes, and hypnotherapy offers a gentle and very effective approach to treating sleep difficulties and insomnia. Through relaxation techniques and guided imagery, hypnotherapy can help you unwind and quieten the mind, allowing you to enter a deep state of relaxation conducive to sleep. By identifying and addressing any underlying stressors, anxieties, or negative thought patterns that may be contributing to sleep disturbances, hypnotherapy promotes a sense of calm and tranquillity, paving the way for restful and rejuvenating sleep. Hypnotherapy can help you experience improvements in sleep quality, duration, and overall well-being, leading to a refreshed and energised state upon waking.
Work, School & Sports Performance
Hypnotherapy is a valuable tool for enhancing sports and work performance by harnessing the power of the subconscious mind to optimize focus, motivation, and confidence. Through guided imagery and positive suggestion, hypnotherapy can help athletes, students and professionals tap into their inner strengths and overcome mental barriers that may be holding them back. By instilling a deep sense of confidence, determination, and mental clarity, hypnotherapy enables individuals to perform at their peak, whether on the field, in the classroom or in the workplace.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Gut-directed hypnotherapy has emerged as a highly effective treatment for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and the NHS. This specialised form of hypnotherapy focuses on addressing the gut-brain connection, helping you to manage your IBS symptoms and improve your quality of life. Through relaxation techniques and positive visualisation, gut-directed hypnotherapy aims to reduce gut sensitivity, alleviate abdominal pain, and regulate bowel function. By promoting relaxation and reducing stress, this approach can also help to minimise the psychological factors that often exacerbate IBS symptoms. With a tailored program of gut-directed hypnotherapy, you can experience significant relief from IBS symptoms and regain control over your digestive health. Gut-directed hypnotherapy is suitable for both adults and children.

FAQ's

How many Sessions Will I Need?
Solution focused hypnotherapy offers the potential for swift results, often outpacing traditional talk therapies. Positive change typically emerges within 6 to 12 sessions, depending on your goals. This collaborative journey relies on your active participation and commitment to attending sessions, along with engaging in activities between sessions, ensuring optimal outcomes.
Do I Need To Do Anything In Between Sessions?
This will depend on your goals for therapy, but I may ask you to listen to a relaxation audio at night before you go to sleep. This helps not only your sleep but also helps to reinforce the work we do in sessions. This is particularly beneficial for gut-directed hypnotherapy. There may also be small tasks for you to complete between sessions such as noticing changes or positives.
Is Hypnotherapy Suitable For Children?
Is Hypnotherapy Safe?
Yes, children are usually very receptive to hypnotherapy due to their fantastic imaginations. I use a variety of creative techniques to engage children according to their goals and interests, and I work with children from the age of 7. I am fully insured and have an enhanced DBS.
Yes, hypnotherapy is absolutely safe and you will remain in control at all times. Trance is a daydream state that we go into naturally many times a day e.g. if you’re driving or walking somewhere familiar and it is very relaxing.
Children & Teens
Solution-focused hypnotherapy offers a gentle and positive approach and I offer tailored programs specifically for children and young people aged 7 and above. Harnessing their imagination, we collaborate to define and reach their objectives by breaking them down into manageable steps. Using visualisations, confidence-building exercises, and metaphors, I aim to empower young people to recognise their strengths, resilience, and unique qualities. Unlike traditional talk therapies, our focus remains steadfast on their future goals rather than dwelling on the past.
With over a decade of experience working with children in various capacities, I take pride in my ability to quickly establish rapport with young clients, ensuring they feel at ease and secure throughout our sessions.
As a parent, I understand the importance of supporting not just your child but also you, the caregiver. That's why my child programs include a complimentary one-hour session just for you. It's essential for you to feel your best, equipped with valuable tools to support your child effectively. Prioritising the well-being of both you and your child fosters a harmonious family dynamic, and I'm here to support you every step of the way.
