Hypnotherapy can treat a wide range of problems by easing symptoms of some physiological issues and reprogramming our automatic negative patterns which feed phobias and bad habits. The main treatments are detailed below and include Stress, Anxiety, Phobias, Trauma, PTSD, Anger Management, Smoking Cessation, Past Life Regression (PLRT), Weight Loss, and self-defeating behaviours such as vaping, nail biting, and skin picking. I can support you with many other issues, so please get in touch to discuss your personal situation.

Full Terms and Conditions are available on Booking. *Disclaimer* – I do not claim that Hypnotherapy can cure any conditions/ills/health issues. I am not medically qualified in any way or qualified to give nutritional or medical advice. I offer a complementary therapy and I am only qualified to treat at a sub-clinical level.
Hypnotherapy for PTSD/Trauma
10 sessions £65 per 1 hour session
Trauma – The body and mind’s response to an emotionally distressing event or events. The distress reaction is often referred to as ‘Psychological trauma,’ more commonly known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). You may have been diagnosed by a medical professional with PTSD nor you just suspect you are struggling with this.
I aim to help you explore how past experiences are showing up for you in the present. Looking at the past does not mean stepping back into the memory. Your subconscious mind is a great protector and will not allow you to go anywhere you are not ready to.
If left untreated, PTSD can lead to Depression, Anxiety, Phobias, and Suicidal Ideation, along with Self-harm, Grief, and Dissociation. Some clients report challenges like weight loss or gain, sleep issues, substance abuse, sexual dysfunction, hyper-vigilance, and in extreme cases Borderline Personality Disorder. While addressing and reducing the impact of traumatic responses in your current life, it is essential to remember that outcomes can vary for each individual, and healing is a personal journey.
We work together in a gentle and careful way. Firstly I will give you strategies to use when triggered to ground and regulate. This is the most important initial stage. The reviewing and reprocessing stage confidently commences around the 2nd or 3rd session (or whenever you are ready), I always advise clients that when you are in hypnosis, you will feel relaxed, detached, distanced and dissociated therefore protected from traumatic memories, not fully engaging with them, looking in from your calm and relaxed state.
Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy, and I am here to support you every step of the way. With your informed consent, I would be more than happy to collaborate with your GP and your existing medical team to ensure a comprehensive approach to your well-being. Before we begin any analytical work, we will have an assessment session together, and I will ask for your written consent via a treatment form, to move forward.
Hypnotherapy for Anger Management
2 – 4 sessions £65 per 1 hour session
Anger is a healthy emotion but how we manage our expression of it is usually where our problem stems from.
- Anger can be a warning to others that they are near to pushing you too far
- Anger can be a symptom of hunger, lack of sleep and other physical dis-ease as well as co-existing with anxiety, depression and is often one of the first symptoms of stress.
- Anger can arise to help us protect ourselves or loved ones. Injustice was the fuel for the Suffragette women’s movement who were fighting for their voices to be heard and the right to vote around 1906.
- Anger can become a problem habit so is more difficult to change. In these cases, triggers for our anger are hidden in our subconscious so finding the activating thought takes a little extra.
Anger can become an unwelcome visitor in lives of clients and when it’s release is uncontrolled or unpredictable, it can be very destructive. Severe bouts of anger and rage can damage marriages, family relationships, careers and in extreme cases can have legal implications. The aftermath of anger or rage will usually result in feelings of guilt and shame. It is important when working with anger to understand that it doesn’t define you, but is an important part of all of us so I offer my full empathy, kindness and understanding as I do with all issues, but especially anger.
We work together to address and transform the part anger plays in your life through a unique visualisation technique, and secondly we work on self-acceptance, validation, understanding and forgiveness so you can move forward without guilt, regret or shame.
Hypnotherapy for Anxiety
4-6 sessions £65 per 1 hour session
Anxiety is not your enemy, it is an important natural process we experience when we perceive a threat either through a fearful thought, or in an external situation. We need anxiety to keep us safe. However, when we spend minutes, hours and days in our flight/fight/freeze/fawn state, we can become exhausted, both mentally, physically and emotionally. We may start to avoid situations where we feel anxious and eventually, our world gets smaller and smaller. Hypnotherapy speaks to the subconscious part of your brain where anxiety lives. We work together to reset the nervous system by changing the neural pathways to reshape our anxiety to a more manageable level.
Hypnotherapy for Phobias
1-3 sessions £65 per 1 hour session
Common phobias are of course spiders, heights, dogs, needles and dentists but there are phobias which are based on seemingly everyday objects or even farm animals. Some examples are phobias of buttons (Koumpounophobia ), mirrors (Eisoptrophobia) and Hens (Alektorophobia). Regardless of the source of fear, the fears are real and can be terrifying. Our Emotional right brain will always win over our logical left brain. Cognitively attempting to solve the problem will not give the solution. Communicating with the emotions will lead to solutions which is why Hypnotherapy is so effective. It talks directly to your emotional state.
If you suffer with a phobia, the severity of your reactions can sometimes result in experiencing a hot, sweaty, panic. Our responses are automatic, sometimes dramatic and appear to others as completely irrational. We will do anything to avoid feeling that way again so as seen with anxiety, we start to avoid the objects/places/situations limiting our freedom in life. We can develop phobias from our own experiences, sometimes long forgotten or we can learn and inherit phobias from our caregivers.
I use NLP techniques to help change the deep rooted automatic responses whilst you observe from a safe state of dissociation and deep relaxation. Together we work towards that ‘thing’ becoming totally irrelevant to your thoughts in your everyday life as you free yourself to enjoy lost moments/places and experiences which were previously out of bounds to you.
Hypnotherapy for Weight Management
4 – 6 sessions, £65 per 1 hour session
Hypnotherapy is an effective tool for personal transformation. When we consume more food than we burn, we tend to gain weight. This therapeutic approach explores various aspects of our relationship with food and how it has shaped our bodies and minds. Together with clients, I delve into the root causes of emotional eating, low self-image, and self-esteem issues, sometimes tracing back to our early years. We team up to identify problematic foods, risky situations, and emotional triggers. Then the real work begins; during sessions, clients simply relax while I help them reprogram old subconscious eating patterns linked to comfort, rewards, stress, and protection. As with any change, client commitment is crucial, yet the process feels natural, encouraging healthier eating and increased activity. Hypnotherapy emphasizes making better choices rather than focusing on food quantities. The framework promotes better eating without restriction, paving the way for sustainable weight loss. Many clients find themselves investing in new wardrobes, hiring personal trainers, and engaging in regular exercise, all because they enjoy doing this for themselves and appreciate being free from the burdens of long-term emotional eating.
Past Life Regression Therapy (PLRT) 2hr Session £130
PLRT in a spiritual sense – It’s seen as a way to heal the ‘whole’ person by clients who believe our souls carry emotions from past life drama and experiences. These emotions can bubble up without us realizing, showing up as weird phobias, tough relationships, and those annoying negative emotions that don’t really make sense in our current lives.
PLRT within a metaphorical context – Even if you are a completely logical and scientific person, your subconscious may offer insights and provide solutions to you through your past life regression. You may experience life as a King or Queen for example and within this archetype, there maybe lessons or messages for you which will help you in your current situation or life time.
A note on Past Life Phobias – ‘ There’s a good amount of research on people who believe in reincarnation, and who claim they remember details from their past lives. One University of Virginia study found that some children who claim to recall their previous lives suffer “unusual” phobias that they say are related to those past lives—and specifically the way they died. For example, a child might have an intense fear of water that she attributes to drowning in her past life.’ – Heid, M. (2018a). 29 Weird Phobias That Really Do Exist. [online] Prevention.

Hypnosis for Stress Relief
4-6 sessions £65 per 1 hour session
Most stress is triggered by external events and situations that involve change in some form. We as humans react badly to changes especially unexpected ones such as job loss, bereavement, relocation or divorce. All types of stress (with the exception of Eustress) can lead to more serious health issues such as insomnia, depression, IBS, loss of appetite, loss of libido, increased blood pressure and risk of heart disease. Treating Stress as the root cause can reduce the chances of developing more serious stress-related illnesses, some of which are listed above. Providing clients with SELF-HYPNOSIS tools to cope in everyday life with stress is a essential part of this treatment. We can take you to a beach somewhere, maybe a lush green garden or a bright, warm, sunny woodland glade to refill your body and soul with peace and tranquility all from the comfort of our therapy space. Hypnotherapy gives your subconscious tools which help with coping and reducing stress levels at your command.
Hypnosis for Smoking Cessation
4 x 1hr sessions £250
As an ex-smoker, I am able to put myself in my clients’ shoes when overcoming that old habit of smoking. If you would like to read my own journey to becoming a non-smoker then please click here. Of course every client will have a different relationship with smoking and when planning your session, your relationship with smoking will be the focus. One thing that all successful clients have in common, is the highest level of commitment they have. I offer a free telephone consultation to ascertain whether your level of commitment is going to lead to your success. For professional and ethical reasons, I only work with committed clients who I am certain are ready to get their lives back and become non-smokers. A 7 day smoking diary is required to be completed before your session. This enables me to tailor your therapy to your specific habit and the emotions/thoughts which have previously triggered your subconscious belief that smoking is helping you.
You choose the date that you wish to step into your new life as a healthy non-smoker.
The previous single session approach to smoking cessation has been reviewed and the new 4 session course will support you for longer. We look at the subconscious emotions which drive your smoking and use Solution focused to help you step into your new life as a non-smoker and love it so much that you cannot remember being a smoker.
