Hypnotherapy explained
Hypnotherapy combines relaxation with focused attention to examine the thoughts, beliefs and automatic responses that influence everyday behaviour.
It is a collaborative process. You remain aware and in control, and the work proceeds only with your agreement.
The process
We begin by discussing what has been happening, how long it has affected you and what you would like to change.
Hypnosis is a relaxed, focused state. You remain aware and in control throughout, and the session proceeds at a suitable pace.
In this focused state, we work with the beliefs and automatic responses behind the pattern and develop alternative ways of responding.
Hypnotherapy is not a substitute for appropriate medical or mental health care. Suitability is assessed individually, and outcomes vary.
Hypnotherapy is not stage hypnosis, and it is not sleep.
You cannot be made to do anything against your wishes, and you can speak, move or end the session at any point.

Fees discussed at your free introductory consultation.
Established patterns often require more than one session. A programme provides continuity and time to address them in greater depth.
Each session is tailored to your needs and agreed goals.
Across four sessions, we review progress and adapt the work where needed.
Six sessions for deeper, lasting change.
Fees discussed at your free introductory consultation.
A six-session programme allows us to work with more established patterns and build lasting change over time.
Each session is personalised and we review progress regularly.
Further support for returning clients.
Fees discussed at your free introductory consultation.
Top-up sessions are for returning clients who have already attended a session.
They may be useful when a previous pattern returns, circumstances change or you wish to consolidate earlier work.
