What It Is
Are you feeling stuck, stressed, or overwhelmed? Do you struggle with habits, fears, or emotional blocks you just can’t seem to break? Hypnotherapy is a safe, natural, and effective way to access your subconscious mind—the part of you that drives behaviour, emotions, and beliefs—and create deep, lasting transformation from the inside out.
What Is hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses guided relaxation, intense concentration, and focused attention to bring you into a state of heightened awareness—commonly known as a trance. In this state, your mind is more open to positive suggestions, insight, and healing. We focus on achievable, preferred future goals that support lasting improvements in wellbeing.
Hypnotherapy is a collaborative process where you’re always in control. It’s not about being “put under,” but rather about becoming more in tune with your own inner resources.
Benefits of hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy has helped many of people make meaningful changes in their lives. Some of the most common benefits include:
- Stress & Anxiety Relief Hypnosis calms the nervous system and helps reframe negative thinking patterns. It’s a powerful tool for reducing stress, anxiety or general unease.
- Habit & Addiction Control Whether you’re trying to stop smoking/vaping, reduce alcohol use, or break a compulsive habit, hypnotherapy can help rewire the subconscious patterns that keep you stuck.
- Better Sleep Hypnosis can guide your mind into deeper relaxation and support healthy, restful sleep patterns.
- Confidence & Self-Esteem Boost your self-belief, overcome fear of failure, and reconnect with your inner strength—perfect for public speaking, career growth, or personal goals.
- Trauma & Emotional Healing Work gently with anxiety triggers, or self-limiting beliefs to gain insight and emotional freedom in a safe, supportive environment.
- Weight Management & Mindful Eating Reprogram your relationship with food, reduce emotional eating, and create healthy, sustainable habits.

What to expect in a session
We will begin by discussing your goals and the changes you want to make. Each session is tailored to your unique needs. You’ll be guided into a relaxed state, where we’ll work with your specific goals—whether that’s letting go of a fear, reinforcing a new behaviour, or healing from past events. You will remain in control throughout the session. Most people find the experience deeply calming and empowering and provided you are open to change and willing to engage in the process, hypnotherapy can be a powerful tool for improving both mental and physical wellbeing.
