Clinical Hypnotherapy and Trauma Therapy in Dorking, Surrey
Change is easier than you think…
The brain is constantly changing its structure for better or worse. You can take control of this process and use it to your advantage!
Achieve the life you want!
I am an experienced registered clinical hypnotherapist and trauma therapist based in Dorking in Surrey. I practise solution focused hypnotherapy, which means we focus on how you want things to be rather than dwelling on the problem or analysing distressing past experiences. It works by replacing unhelpful thought patterns, responses and habits with healthy ones at a subconscious level.
Many conditions are caused or exacerbated by stress and anxiety. People often come for hypnotherapy for one issue and notice other symptoms disappear as their overall stress levels are reduced and their resilience increases. You may find it helpful to read some of my client reviews.

I have helped hundreds of people with a variety of issues including generalised anxiety, social anxiety disorders, PTSD, panic attacks, low self-confidence, low self-esteem, irrational thoughts, obsessional behaviour, specific fears and phobias, symptoms of depression and irritable bowel syndrome, insomnia, coping with major life changes, chronic pain, overcoming addictions and unwanted habits.

What is solution focused hypnotherapy?
Solution focused hypnotherapy is a modern evidence-based therapy combining a form of psychotherapy called Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with some Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques and hypnosis to reduce stress and anxiety and help you achieve positive changes quickly through gaining control of your thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It focuses on finding solutions rather than trying to uncover or analyse the origin of problems, although that can sometimes be helpful. The techniques I use do not require you to talk about problems or relive traumatic past experiences but aim to help you move from where you are to where you want to be.
Hypnotherapy is more than just hypnosis. It is a collaborative process and provided you are willing to make changes to the way you think, it can be highly effective in relieving the symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression; improving sleep patterns; eliminating unwanted habits and behaviours; and generally helping you achieve a better quality of life. I will help you become clearer about what you want to achieve and help you reach your desired goal.
Although I cannot offer guarantees, I do have a high success rate in helping my clients reach their goals. You may find it helpful to read some from some of my client reviews.
Hypnotherapy is a gentle but powerful tool to help you overcome barriers, achieve your goals and reach your full potential.
