The first session is 90 minutes. We talk through what's going on, identify what's driving it, and begin working on it together.

Follow-up sessions are 60 minutes, each one focused on your specific goals and where you want to get to.

My approach blends Hypnotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Mindfulness.

All sessions are 1-to-1, online via Zoom..

It depends on the specific situation. Most people start to notice real change within 4 to 8 sessions, but it could be fewer or more. We set a clear goal at the start and check progress along the way, so you'll always know what's going on.

Most of what drives our behaviour, reactions, and emotions happens at a subconscious level. Once we develop these patterns, they become automatic, just like driving a car.

That's why lasting change is difficult through conscious effort alone. Hypnotherapy works by accessing that automatic part of the mind directly, and when combined with Cognitive Behavioural techniques, clinical studies show this combination is highly effective for anxiety, stress, social anxiety, and panic attacks.

Most clients notice a real shift, often sooner than they expected.

Hypnotherapy is one of the most researched therapies. It is recognised by the British Medical Association, the British Psychological Society, and the American Medical Association as a valid and effective treatment.

It has nothing to do with stage hypnosis. You stay fully aware and in control the entire time.

Scientific research has shown it to be effective for anxiety, stress, phobias, panic attacks, confidence, and habit change, which is exactly what I work with.

Combined with Cognitive Behavioural Techniques, research shows it works even better.

It feels like a state of deep physical and mental relaxation - pleasant and calm. Your mind stays clear throughout. You might be guided to "sleep" but you won't actually fall asleep - it's simply a way of helping the mind relax deeply and let go of overthinking.

No, and this is one of the biggest misconceptions about hypnotherapy. You remain aware and in control the entire time. You can hear everything, respond freely, and come out of it whenever you want. You are always an active participant, never a passive subject.
