If you’ve never experienced hypnotherapy before, you might imagine lying back with your eyes closed while someone reads a script to you.

And while guided hypnosis can be part of our work, my approach is often much more conversational than people expect.

I use Clinical and Advanced Conversational Hypnotherapy to explore what’s happening for you through therapeutic conversation, carefully chosen language and techniques tailored to your individual needs.

That might include guided hypnosis, imagery, exploring familiar responses or helping you notice the moments when an old pattern begins — and where a different response might become possible.

You won’t be expected to arrive with all the answers. You don’t need to know exactly why you feel a certain way or why you keep doing something you’d rather change.

We can explore those things together.

Over my years in practice, I’ve also developed my own processes for bringing these approaches together. Rather than taking every client through the same script or assuming that the same technique will suit everyone, I adapt our work to your experiences, your goals and the way you respond.

For me, the starting point isn’t a standard programme.

It’s you.
