'If my mind can conceive it and my heart can believe it, then I can achieve it.' Muhammed Ali

Hypnotherapy is all about allowing your imagination to conceive solutions and possibilities. Your job is to start believing it and that's when we can achieve so much.

The language of your mind is your imagination, interpreting the world you live in through metaphor, symbols and the stories you tell yourself. What is this story that you are telling and showing yourself? Is the metaphor of your life a positive or a negative one? What would happen if you changed the story, created a new metaphor and began to tell yourself every waking moment that you can do and have the things you want?

Start today to rewrite the story in your head. No matter what your past or even your current situation, the future is an open road not a foregone dead end. So often we let fear of rejection or failure determine our every step. The longer we listen to the same inner voice telling us we 'can't' do something, the more it becomes a fake reality. Allow yourself the freedom to spend a week (or even a day) telling yourself the opposite over and over.

Hypnotherapy is not magic. It requires work from you and sometimes a lot of work. It's all about changing that inner voice and beginning to believe in yourself. It's about changing the patterns in your life that reinforce negative beliefs and creating new ones that stimulate inner strength and belief.

Typically we talk, focussing in on the changes you want or need to make. Then there's a period of 'trancework'. This is the internal processing that involves engaging your imagination and having faith that somewhere inside you is the answer. That faith is the self belief we all need to move forward in our lives. That self belief is what so many of us lack and it's the greatest gift you can give to yourself.

Fears and Anxiety - from phobias to constant worrying and self doubt

Depression - allow yourself to turn depression around and begin to see the light in your life rather than the dark

Fertility and Birthing - Helping you through the IVF or assisted Fertility process, or negotiating an unexplained infertility diagnosis to helping you to achieve a positive birth

Grief - dealing with guilt, anger, shame, shock and how to learn to live with sadness and loss

If you can imagine, you can be hypnotised.

If you can learn, you can be hypnotised.

If you focus and think, you can be hypnotised.

Hypnosis within a therapeutic environment is not about mind control and theatrics - that's for the stage and entertainment. I aim to teach you how to recreate the session at home and how to use techniques to empower and enable you.
