Hypnotherapy for weight loss
If you’d like to address your eating habits, I can help reframe your thought patterns, address your emotional triggers, and reinforce positive behaviours related to eating and exercise.

Hypnotherapy to quit smoking and vaping
Hypnotherapy can also be a powerful tool to quit smoking or vaping by addressing the psychological and behavioural aspects of nicotine addiction. Through guided relaxation and focused suggestions, I can help break the associations you have between smoking and daily routines, stress relief, or emotional triggers.
Unlike nicotine replacement therapies or medication, hypnotherapy works by shifting deep-seated thought patterns, making it easier to overcome cravings and resist the urge to smoke or vape.
During hypnotherapy sessions, deeper issues or personal concerns often come to light which can trigger the need to smoke. In such cases, it’s more effective to focus on the trigger, the cause behind your smoking habit, to help eradicate the urge for good.
Benefits of therapy:
- Can help identify deeper issues that cause negative habits like smoking
- Helps reprogramme subconscious triggers linked to smoking or vaping
- Reduces cravings and withdrawal symptoms

- Enhances confidence in your ability to quit successfully
- Reduces irritability and mood swings often linked to withdrawal
- Promotes relaxation and better stress management techniques
- Helps restore a sense of control over personal choices
- Supports long-term behavioural change to prevent relapse
Hypnosis and sleep
Hypnotherapy can be an effective tool for improving your sleep by calming the mind, reducing stress, and reprogramming negative thought patterns that contribute to insomnia or restless nights.
Guiding you through a relaxed state, I can help address underlying causes of sleep disturbances, such as anxiety, overthinking, or poor sleep habits.
Unlike medication, which may only offer temporary relief, hypnotherapy works on a subconscious level to create lasting changes in sleep patterns, for deeper and more restorative rest.
Benefits of therapy:
- Helps quiet a racing mind and reduce overthinking before bed
- Encourages deeper, more restorative sleep cycles

It’s also a good idea to talk to your GP about any ongoing symptoms or concerns related to menopause.

Phobias can feel overwhelming and sometimes limit your everyday activities or decisions. Hypnotherapy may help by working with the unconscious mind to gently shift the fear response, reduce avoidance, and build a greater sense of safety and control.
It can support the process of breaking down fear into smaller, more manageable parts, helping to reduce its intensity over time. While it’s not a replacement for medical treatment, it can be a helpful complementary therapy for some people.
