A safe, structured form of focused attention – where the conscious mind quiets just enough for the subconscious to receive new instructions, release stored emotion and recover its balance.

Clinical hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation, targeted language and visualisation to bring your mind into a deeply receptive state – the same state you naturally drop into while reading, driving familiar roads or just before sleep.
In that state, the subconscious – which stores emotion, memory and habit – becomes accessible in a way it isn't in normal waking life. We work there gently, with your full consent, second by second.
Most of what runs your day – emotional reactions, habits, self-image, fear – is not authored by your conscious mind. It's stored, deep and automatic.
Research suggests up to 95% of daily behaviour runs from subconscious patterns – not conscious choice.
Hypnotic states correspond to theta & alpha brainwaves – the same states linked to deep insight and learning.
You hear everything. You choose everything. Hypnosis is collaboration, not surrender.
No. You remain in full control throughout. If a suggestion conflicts with your values, your mind simply ignores it. Stage hypnosis is theatre. Clinical hypnotherapy is medicine.
Quite the opposite. You'll be deeply relaxed but more aware than usual – often with sharper focus and clearer memory of the session afterward.
Almost everyone can experience therapeutic hypnosis. What varies is depth – and a skilled practitioner adjusts in real time.
You cannot. The hypnotic state ends the moment you choose to end it – or simply when the session is over.
Clinical hypnotherapy has decades of clinical literature behind it and is endorsed by major medical bodies for specific applications including anxiety, IBS, pain and habit change.
15–20 minutes of context: what you're navigating, your history, what change would feel like.
Guided relaxation – breath, body, voice. You stay aware. The mind softens.
Targeted suggestion, regression or visualisation – chosen for what you came in for.
A gentle return, debrief, and a small practice to take home until next time.
