Break Free from Addictions, Habits & Emotional Struggles

Most people who are willing to participate, able to follow instructions and want to experience hypnosis can enter a hypnotic state. You remain aware and in control throughout the process.

However, hypnotherapy may not be appropriate for everyone or every situation. If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, acute mental-health distress, psychosis or certain other serious mental-health conditions, we recommend discussing your situation with an appropriate medical or mental-health professional before undertaking hypnotherapy.

If you’re unsure whether hypnotherapy is suitable for you, we’re happy to discuss your circumstances before making an appointment.

Typically, you will be guided into hypnosis about half way through a session. In some complex cases, the first session is spent getting detailed background. Then hypnosis can be used to reinforce your goals, or to uncover and remove troubling issues. A strong counselling element is also likely to play a part in the process.

Hypnosis is refreshing, relaxing, and energising; for some even more refreshing than sleep. Most important is the fact that it works— people get results. Hypnosis is experienced as a state of being deeply relaxed. In fact, if you wanted to compare hypnosis to anything, the closest you could get is when you are extremely relaxed early in the morning just waking up or late at night just drifting off into sleep where you are not really sure if you are awake or sleeping.

Yes. Most addictions are caused by events deeply buried in the past. While treating addictions many methods fail to address these issues, and so really only deal with symptoms. Hypnotherapy addresses the causes. We specialise in working with clients who wish to manage their alcohol, smoking, vaping, marijuana and gambling use.

You have an unconscious and conscious mind. Your unconscious mind is the one that drives your life. It does everything you don’t think about – for example all your habits that you just automatically do without having to think about them. And the conscious mind is the part of your mind that thinks, and makes choices, and decides what it is you do and don’t want to do.

The problem is that your unconscious mind will take over when you are not consciously thinking about what you’re doing. For example, have you ever driven to your destination and realised you don’t remember much of the drive? This is because you were likely daydreaming about other things with your conscious mind, and so your unconscious mind took over driving the car out of habit.

What hypnosis does is it utilises this state of deep relaxation where your unconscious mind is open to directly absorbing new beliefs, thoughts and habits. This means that when you are not consciously thinking you are on autopilot and will do what you have always done.

Hypnosis provides access to the unconscious mind where most of our behaviour originates. With our guidance, you literally change undesirable emotions, habits, and behaviours into new desirable ones. You create a new you!

Hypnotherapy may help some people manage anxiety, stress and the emotional patterns associated with them. By working with thoughts, feelings and responses that can often happen automatically, hypnotherapy can help you develop new ways of responding to situations that trigger anxiety.

Rather than simply focusing on the symptoms, our approach explores the patterns and experiences that may be contributing to your anxiety. We may also use EFT Tapping and other complementary techniques, depending on your individual circumstances.

Everyone experiences anxiety differently, so we take a personalised approach to help you work towards greater calm, confidence and emotional wellbeing.

Research suggests that EFT Tapping may be an effective tool for reducing stress. Peer-reviewed research led by Professor Peta Stapleton at Bond University in Queensland has investigated EFT and its effects on stress, including physiological markers such as cortisol.

EFT Tapping is designed to help reduce emotional intensity and can be a useful technique for managing everyday stress and emotional overwhelm. We use EFT alongside other approaches, depending on your individual needs and goals.
