About Hypnotherapy
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy helps you move from feeling stuck, overwhelmed or anxious to feeling calmer, more confident, and more in control.
It combines practical, forward focused therapy with deeply relaxing hypnosis to help settle the mind, soothe the nervous system, and support real, lasting change.
While I work with adults facing a range of challenges including stress, anxiety, low confidence, and life transitions, I have a particular interest in supporting women experiencing medical or health anxiety. Together we work to ease the fear, uncertainty, and emotional strain that can come with symptoms, illness, or treatment, helping you reconnect with your inner steadiness and strength.
Rather than dwelling on the past, our sessions focus on what is already working and the small, manageable steps that help you move forward.
You’ll also gain a clearer understanding of how your brain responds to stress, so you can feel more empowered in everyday life.
All sessions take place online via Zoom or WhatsApp, allowing you to relax in your own space and fit therapy around your life, health needs, and schedule (pets and pyjamas always welcome!)
This work is deeply meaningful to me. Supporting you to find calm, confidence, and a sense of connection again is at the heart of everything I do.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy?
It’s a modern, evidence-based approach that combines gentle talking therapy with hypnosis (a deeply relaxed, natural state). We focus on the present and your future, not your past, helping you feel better, faster.
What is hypnosis? Will I be asleep?
Not at all. Hypnosis is just a calm, focused state, similar to when you're daydreaming or watching TV. You're fully in control the whole time. You don’t need to do or say anything, just relax and listen.
Who is it for?
Almost anyone! Whether you're dealing with anxiety, low mood, OCD, panic, IBS, insomnia, or confidence issues, this therapy can help. The more open and engaged you are, the more you'll get from it.
How long is each session?
Each session typically lasts between 50 and 60 minutes, though sometimes we may run over slightly. If that happens, there’s no extra charge, your comfort and progress come first.
What should I expect during my first session?
Your first session will be an Initial Consultation, where we’ll talk about your needs, goals, and what you'd like support with. I’ll explain how hypnotherapy works, including how the brain plays a role and why you might be feeling the way you do. I’ll also take a brief, non-invasive medical history to help provide the best possible care.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on your goals and how you respond to the process. We'll review progress regularly to ensure it's working for you. Most people benefit from 8 - 12 sessions, but everyone has different needs. We’ll talk more about this in your initial consultation.
What if I need to cancel a session?
I know that unexpected things can come up, and I’m always happy to reschedule or cancel a session if I’m given more than 24 hours’ notice. If it’s less than 24 hours, I’m not able to offer a refund, unless there are special circumstances, which I’ll consider on a case-by-case basis.
For block bookings, a missed session may be deducted, and please note that block bookings are non-refundable. Since I work with many clients, I kindly ask that you respect both my time and the commitment you’ve made to your sessions.
Hypnotherapy works best when it’s consistent, so regular attendance is really important. If cancellations become frequent, I may need to pause or bring our work together to a close.
When are payments required?
Fees are payable in advance at the point of booking.
How are payments made?
Payments are made by bank transfer. When you make a booking, I’ll send you a secure payment link. For international payments, a PayPal link will be provided instead. At this time, no other payment methods are available.
Is everything confidential?
Yes. All sessions are strictly confidential, in line with professional standards and ethical guidelines.
Do I have to talk about my past?
No. This therapy is all about moving forward. We don’t dig into past events, we look at where you are now and where you want to be.
Can you guarantee success?
No therapist can guarantee 100% success, and it wouldn’t be right to try. Real progress depends on your commitment to change and my ability to support you. I’m fully trained, experienced with a wide range of issues, and have seen strong results, as shown by my testimonials. You’re always in control of how many sessions you have, and we’ll review things together each week.
How do I get started?
You can contact me for a free introductory phone call or book in for a friendly initial consultation. We will discuss your needs, explain how everything works, and answer any questions you may have.
