What can hypnotherapy help with?

Solution Focused Online Hypnotherapy supports your mind in moving from survival mode into a calmer, more confident, and focused state.
It’s a combination of future-oriented conversation and deep relaxation (hypnosis) — helping you build new, more helpful patterns in the brain.

Hypnotherapy can help when you feel overwhelmed, emotionally tired, or stuck in unhelpful cycles.

Here are some of the most common areas I work with:

  • Stress and chronic tension
  • Anxiety and overthinking
  • Panic attacks
  • Trouble falling asleep or staying asleep
  • Low confidence or self-worth
  • Procrastination and lack of motivation
  • Difficulty switching off and relaxing
  • Phobias (e.g. flying, spiders, claustrophobia)
  • Public speaking and performance anxiety
  • Anger or emotional reactivity
  • Exam nerves and fear of failure
  • Driving anxiety
  • Nail biting and unwanted habits
  • Smoking or vaping cessation
  • Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
  • Chronic pain and somatic tension
  • Trauma and emotional processing
  • Sports or performance pressure

Hypnotherapy is a gentle and practical way to create lasting change — regardless of your age, gender, or life story.
We focus on what’s already working and build more of it — together, step by step.

What does “Solution Focused” mean in online hypnotherapy?

“Solution Focused” means that we don’t spend sessions digging into what’s wrong —
we focus on what’s possible.

Instead of analysing the past in detail, we gently explore:
– what’s already working (even a little),
– what’s important to you,
– and how to take small, meaningful steps toward the life you want.

This approach is positive, respectful, and forward-looking.
It helps you reconnect with your strengths, your values, and your ability to move forward — even if things feel heavy or unclear right now.

You don’t need to have the answers.
We find them together, starting from where you are.

Where to start?

The first step is a Free Online Initial Consultation, which lasts around 45 minutes.
It’s a calm, informal conversation where you can share what you’d like to change or improve, and I’ll explain how hypnotherapy works and answer any questions you may have.

During the consultation, we’ll also fill in a short form together, which helps us understand your current situation and what you’re hoping for.
Based on this, we’ll decide together whether hypnotherapy is the right path for you and whether we can continue working together.

There’s no need to prepare anything in advance. There’s no pressure, no judgment — just a respectful and supportive space to talk.

To book your consultation, simply send me a message via email or through the contact form on the website.
It’s helpful if you briefly share what you’re looking for support with, and what you’d like to change or improve.
Please also let me know your general availability — which days and times work best for you.
I’ll then reply with possible appointment slots, and once we agree on a time, I’ll send you a link for our online meeting.

Writing this message is already the first step — a gentle move toward the change you’re hoping for.

How does it feel to have a hypnosis relaxation session online?

Clients find online hypnosis (trance) relaxation sessions to be just as effective and enjoyable as in-person ones. You may experience deep relaxation, clarity, and a sense of calm, all from the comfort of your own space. The familiar environment can even enhance your ability to relax and connect during the session.

Is hypnotherapy safe?

Yes, hypnotherapy is considered a safe therapeutic technique when conducted by a trained professional. I am trained & registered with the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH), and I carry insurance and a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) certificate, ensuring that you’re in safe hands. It’s a non-invasive method that can help with various issues, including stress, anxiety, and phobias.

Can I fall asleep? Am I going to wake up?

During a hypnotherapy session, you may experience deep relaxation that feels similar to sleep, but you won’t actually be asleep. Instead, you’ll enter a focused state of awareness, where you can engage with suggestions and therapeutic processes while remaining fully aware and in control.

When you sleep, you can still hear various sounds around you. For example, parents often wake up to the sound of a crying baby in another room. This phenomenon highlights the mind’s ability to remain partially aware even during deep sleep, allowing you to respond to important stimuli in your environment. Understanding this can be beneficial when considering the effects of relaxation techniques like hypnotherapy, where you may achieve a similar state of heightened awareness.

Absolutely! I will guide you back to full awareness at the end of the session, ensuring you feel refreshed and alert.

Does it work online?

Yes, hypnotherapy works effectively online! The techniques and strategies used in hypnotherapy can be adapted for virtual settings, allowing you to benefit from the process regardless of your location. Many clients have successfully achieved their therapeutic goals through online sessions, making it a convenient and accessible option. We feel best in our own homes, saving valuable time on travel. This allows us to easily incorporate sessions into our calendars.

All you need is a phone or computer with a reliable internet connection. You can have something to drink and a blanket for comfort. Sometimes, clients use headphones for better audio quality. Of course, it’s important to have a quiet and peaceful space during the session, allowing for true relaxation. You can comfortably sit or lie down during the hypnosis, trance time (relaxation part of the session).

How Many Hypnotherapy Sessions Are Needed?

The number of hypnotherapy sessions required varies significantly and depends on several factors that we discuss during your free initial consultation. This is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have, and I’ll be happy to provide answers before you decide on a session package.

Typically, a minimum of 6-8 sessions is recommended. However, in some cases, you may need 10-12 sessions for optimal results. The pace and process of hypnotherapy are influenced by a variety of factors, including the duration and complexity of the issues or habits you wish to address.

It’s important to understand that achieving lasting change is not a quick fix. If a problem or habit has been with you for a long time, it requires commitment, patience, and a series of small steps. Our brains need repetition to be retrained. We focus on recognizing small successes and finding joy in the process and the daily life. This means shifting our attention away from perfectionism and towards consistency in our actions.

By embracing this approach, we can ensure that the changes you seek are not only effective but also sustainable over time. Remember, the journey towards personal transformation is just as important as the destination.

Do I need to be in a specific state of mind for hypnotherapy?

No specific state of mind is required. However, being open to the process and willing to engage can enhance your experience.

How do I prepare for an online session?

Find a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed. Ensure you have a stable internet connection and that your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) is charged. Wear comfortable clothing and consider using headphones for better audio quality.
