Hypnotherapy Specialising in Anxiety and Stress
Calm your mind. Change the pattern. Feel more like yourself again. No hype. No judgement. No unrealistic promises.
Sometimes you know exactly what you want to change. Sometimes you simply know that you don't want to carry on feeling the way you do. You might be struggling with anxiety, worry or overthinking. Perhaps stress is starting to take over, your confidence isn't where you'd like it to be, or a fear or habit is getting in the way of everyday life. Whatever has brought you here, you don't need to have all the answers before getting in touch. I offer a free initial consultation to identify how to achieve your desired outcome.
When anxiety and stress take over, even ordinary life can start to feel exhausting.
Constant overthinking. A mind that won’t switch off. Tension you can’t seem to shake. Worrying about what might happen next — even when part of you knows there’s nothing to fear. At Honest Hypnotherapy, I offer a calm, supportive approach to hypnotherapy designed to help you understand and change the patterns that may be keeping anxiety and stress going.
There are no unrealistic promises and no judgement. Just practical, personalised support focused on helping you move forward.
Why Honest Hypnotherapy?
I believe honesty matters when you're asking someone for help.
I am not going to tell you that hypnosis is magic. I won't promise to cure you. I won't guarantee that everything will change in one session. And I won't tell you that hypnotherapy is right for everybody. What I will do is listen carefully to what is happening, explain my approach clearly and be straightforward about whether I believe hypnotherapy could be appropriate for what you'd like to work on. If we decide to work together, your sessions will be built around you, rather than forcing you through the same process as everybody else.
My approach combines traditional hypnotherapy with modern techniques, but the philosophy behind Honest Hypnotherapy is much simpler:
Listen first. Understand the person. Be honest about what we can and cannot achieve. and genuinely try to help.
What Would You Like To Change?
Hypnotherapy helps by accessing the subconscious mind to interrupt anxiety patterns and build lasting resilience. Honest Hypnotherapy is built on clinical transparency and evidence-based techniques, ensuring a practice that is as practical as it is profound.
Anxiety & Overthinking
When your mind rarely seems to switch off, even relatively small things can become exhausting. Hypnotherapy may be used to help people experiencing anxious feelings while exploring some of the thoughts, associations and responses that may be keeping those feelings going.
Stress & Feeling Overwhelmed
Constant pressure can affect your sleep, concentration, relationships and ability to enjoy the things around you. Our sessions can provide an opportunity to slow things down and work on how you respond to pressure.
Confidence & Self-Belief
Perhaps you know you're capable but something inside keeps holding you back. We can explore the thoughts, expectations and patterns affecting how you see yourself and how you respond to challenging situations.
Fears & Phobias
A fear can feel completely real even when another part of you knows the situation isn't dangerous. Hypnotherapy can be used as part of working with some fears and phobias.
Habits & Unwanted Patterns
Sometimes we continue doing something long after we've decided we'd like to stop. Hypnotherapy can provide another way of working with automatic behaviours, triggers and habitual responses.
Anxiety often involves automatic patterns of thought and reaction that can feel difficult to control consciously. You may understand logically that something is unlikely to go wrong, yet your body and mind still react as though there is a threat.
Hypnotherapy uses focused attention and deep relaxation to help you explore these patterns and practise different ways of responding.
Sessions are tailored to you, your experiences and what you would like to change.
Hypnotherapy for Anxiety
Hypnotherapy for Stress
A certain amount of stress is part of life. But when your mind rarely switches off and your body remains in a constant state of tension, it can become exhausting.
Hypnotherapy sessions can help you create space away from that constant mental noise and develop calmer responses to the pressures in your life. The aim isn’t to create a life without challenges, It’s to help you feel better equipped to deal with them.
What is Hypnotherapy
Dispelling myths of swinging watches and loss of control, hypnotherapy is actually a state of heightened focus where you remain fully aware and empowered. You cannot be influenced to share secrets or act against your will.
Modern hypnotherapy practice utilises this concentrated state together with clinical techniques to address habits and triggers.
You always remain entirely in charge of your own experience

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I lose control during hypnosis?
No. Hypnosis does not mean becoming unconscious or surrendering control. You remain aware and can choose to stop the session at any time.
What if I can’t be hypnotised?
Hypnosis is not something that is “done” to you. It involves your participation and focused attention. People experience it differently, and we can discuss any concerns before beginning.
How many sessions will I need?
There isn’t an honest one-size-fits-all answer. People, circumstances and goals differ. We can discuss an appropriate starting point during your consultation and review progress as we go.
Is Hypnotherapy suitable for everyone?
Not necessarily. Your initial consultation gives us an opportunity to discuss your circumstances and whether hypnotherapy appears appropriate. Hypnotherapy should not replace medical or mental-health care when that care is needed.
Meet Your Hypnotherapist
My journey into hypnotherapy began with a personal experience.
When anxiety affected someone in my family, I wanted to help — but I didn’t yet have the knowledge or understanding to do so effectively. That experience prompted me to start learning: first to better understand anxiety and stress, and ultimately to explore how our thoughts, emotions and automatic responses can influence the way we feel and behave. What began as a personal search for answers developed into a genuine fascination with hypnotherapy and the ways therapeutic techniques can help people approach familiar patterns differently. I initially trained with Paul Mckenna and became a certified Hypnotherapist learning the modern cutting edge techniques and I have also studyed traditional Hypnotherapy and obtained my Diploma in Hypnotherapy (DHP Acc.Hyp)
I founded Honest Hypnotherapy to offer the kind of support I would have wanted my own family to receive: compassionate, straightforward and grounded in realistic expectations. That philosophy still shapes how I work today.
I won't promise overnight transformations or miracle cures. Instead, my focus is on understanding what you are experiencing, what you would genuinely like to change, and working with you towards meaningful progress. Because for me, good hypnotherapy isn't about hype.
It's about helping you create change that matters to you.
