Why would a Hypnotherapist tell people NOT to work with them? 🤔

Because the right therapist isn’t the right therapist for everyone.

And that’s exactly how it should be.

There are a lot of misconceptions about hypnotherapy. That it’s mind control. That it’s a quick fix. That you’ll lie back, I’ll wave a magic wand and you’ll leave completely transformed without lifting a finger.

If only it worked like that!

The reality is much more empowering.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is grounded in neuroscience. It’s about helping your brain build new, more helpful pathways through repetition, relaxation and practical strategies. My role is to guide you through that process, but lasting change happens when we work together.

If you’re curious about hypnotherapy but aren’t quite sure what to expect, this carousel is for you.

Save it for later, share it with someone who’s always wondered what hypnotherapy is really like, and if you have any questions, pop them in the comments. I’m always happy to answer them.

One of the things I’ve learnt from working as a Clinical Hypnotherapist is that anxiety doesn’t discriminate.

I’ve worked with people navigating trauma, grief and incredibly difficult life experiences.

I’ve also worked with people who, from the outside, seem to have everything they could ever want.

Loving families. Successful careers. Financial security. Good friends.

Yet they often tell me the same thing:
‘𝙄 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙄 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙗𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮... 𝙨𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙮 𝙙𝙤 𝙄 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙭𝙞𝙤𝙪𝙨?’

🧠 The truth is, our brains don’t decide whether we’re ‘allowed’ to feel anxious based on our circumstances.

My therapy room has always been a judgement-free space.

You never need to convince me that your anxiety is ‘bad enough’ or that you have enough reasons to be struggling.

❌ Together, we don’t spend session after session analysing everything that’s wrong.

✅ Instead, we focus on understanding how your brain works, recognising the strengths that have got you this far, and helping you move towards feeling calmer, happier and, as so many of my clients put it:

‘𝙄 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣.’

I’ve written a new blog post explaining why anxiety can show up even when life is going well, the neuroscience behind it, and why it’s much more common than you might think.

One week (or more!) into the Summer Holidays... how’s everyone doing?

Maybe you’ve had some lovely family moments ☺️

Maybe you’ve already heard ‘I’m bored’ approximately 642 times 😬

Or perhaps you’re wondering how there are still so many weeks left 🙈

If you’re feeling more frazzled than fulfilled, you’re definitely not alone.

The Summer holidays often bring a huge increase in the mental load.

You’re juggling childcare, work, meals, outings, keeping everyone entertained... all whilst trying to find five minutes to yourself.

No wonder your brain feels overloaded 🤯

I originally wrote this blog last summer, but after so many conversations in my therapy room over the past week with parents feeling overwhelmed, I realised it’s just as relevant now. So I thought it was worth sharing again.

In it, I explain:
🧠 What’s happening in your brain when the mental load ramps up
😳 Why this time of year can feel so overwhelming

I also share some simple, practical tips to help you feel calmer and enjoy the rest of the holidays without putting pressure on yourself to create the ‘perfect’ summer.

If the first week or two has left you feeling like you need a bit of a reset, I hope you’ll find it helpful 💕

🫶 And if you know another parent who could do with reading this, feel free to share it with them.

Ever found yourself needing a wee or 💩 just before an interview, presentation, exam... or even leaving the house?

As awkward as it feels, it’s actually one of the most common physical symptoms of anxiety that people talk to me about in the therapy room.

Here, I explain:

🧠 Why your brain does this and why understanding what’s happening can make these symptoms feel far less frightening.

A quick note: if you’re experiencing ongoing bowel symptoms or think you may have a digestive condition such as IBS or Crohn’s disease, it’s always important to speak to your GP to rule out an underlying medical cause.

If anxiety is stopping you from living the life you want, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can help you calm your nervous system, break unhelpful patterns and build lasting resilience.

This for every mum who is feeling a little overwhelmed by the thought of the summer holidays.

With the summer holidays about to begin for some families (and already underway for others), the overwhelm of how you’ll keep everyone entertained, juggling childcare and work, AND still finding five minutes to yourself has come up in so many conversations in my therapy room this week.

So I’m reposting this video, where I’m sharing 5 simple tips to help you feel calmer, lower the pressure and enjoy more of the summer instead of just surviving it.

Save this for later (or share with any mum friends) - you might thank yourself in a few weeks 💛

In this video, I explain why your brain naturally focuses on the negatives and share a few simple ways you can start training it to notice more of what’s going well.

As a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, this is exactly what I help my clients do. Together, we work with the brain rather than against it, helping to break unhelpful thought patterns and build healthier, more balanced ways of thinking.

Because thanks to neuroplasticity, your brain isn’t fixed.

The way you think today doesn’t have to be the way you think forever.

If you’re tired of overthinking, expecting the worst or feeling like your brain is always looking for problems, I’d love to help.
