The Healthy Hypnotherapist

12/03/2026

Every week in clinic looks a little different… and that’s one of the things I love most about this work.

Happy Friday 🤍

Here’s a little snapshot of what I’ve been supporting clients with this week:

🌸 Teen anxiety and school refusal
🌸 Quitting sugar
🌸 Nervous system regulation
🌸 Overwhelm
🌸 Postnatal depression
🌸 Career transitions
🌸 Narcissistic abuse recovery
🌸 Toxic workplace recovery
🌸 Stress
🌸 Inner child work

I’m also currently working with several clients using the Virtual Gastric Band program as a natural alternative to other weight loss methods. It’s always amazing to see the mindset shifts that happen when we work with the subconscious rather than against it 🪷

A quick reminder that I’ll be attending the HNZ Conference in Auckland next weekend, so I’ll be unavailable for sessions 20–25 March.

There are still a few appointments available next week if you’ve been thinking about booking in.

Sharing this beautiful review posted today. 🤍

“I feel like I have my child back.”
This is something I hear quite often after working with children who are struggling with anxiety and school refusal.

When a child is overwhelmed, it’s not just the child who suffers…. the whole family feels the stress. Mornings can become overwhelming, parents feel helpless, and kids often don’t have the words to explain what’s happening inside them.

The good news is that children respond incredibly well when their nervous system is supported in the right way…. which is why hypnotherapy can be so effective in helping them get back to feeling like themselves again.

Sometimes it only takes a few sessions for things to start shifting.

If this sounds like what your family is going through, please know you’re not alone. Please reach out if your child or teen could benefit from some gentle support 🌸

This photo was taken on the weekend where my only job was to sit in the sunshine with gorgeous girlfriends and enjoy the moment ☀️

When you spend your days holding space for other people’s healing, it becomes really important to fill your own cup too.

🌸 Some of the things that help me to reset are….

🪷 Sunshine and fresh air
🪷 A good laugh with friends
🪷 Lots of Yoga
🪷 Quiet moments in my garden
🪷 Dancing in my kitchen to 70’s classics rock
🪷 Drinking tea in the bath

You can’t pour from an empty cup… and I truly believe the best practitioners are the ones who take care of themselves too 🧘🏼‍♀️

What’s something that fills your cup?

🍎 Recently I met an 8 year old boy whose relationship with food had been a battle since he was just 12 months old.

His diet was incredibly limited, and any attempt to encourage new foods led to distress, gagging, meltdowns, and hour long stand offs that left his parents feeling emotionally exhausted.

His Mum described feeling heartbroken, drained, and unsure how to help their very active little boy who loves his sports but was being held back by low energy and a restricted diet.

✨ And then this happened…

A few hours after his last session, I received this message:

“Hi Lisa,

I just had to share some amazing news – Bailey tried apple!!!

All day he was saying, “Tonight, Mum,” but, as usual, when evening came, he quickly changed it to “tomorrow night.” This is very typical for him,he often backs out of agreements he’s made.

Around 9:15pm, he came out saying he was hungry. I agreed he could quickly grab something and then go straight back to bed. I suggested he try an apple, and he agreed. He chose a red apple from the fruit bowl, and when I asked if he wanted to try both, he said yes.

While I was slicing the apple, he started licking it. I gently suggested he take a nibble, and he did. He started with the red apple and then tried a Granny Smith. He wasn’t a fan of the peel, so I offered to peel it for him. He ended up eating almost a whole slice! While that may not seem like much to others, for Bailey it’s huge and I’m just so happy.

We also talked about other fruits he could try and what we have in the fridge and fruit bowl. That led to him licking a sliced grape and putting it in his mouth. He even added apple slices to his lunchbox and is eager to eat them at school.

This is a massive step for him, and he’s just so proud of himself. I can’t thank you enough for your support and guidance, it’s really making a difference.

Thank you so, so much. It exactly what I needed tonight.”

🍎 If your child struggles with anxiety around food, new experiences, or big emotions… you are not alone, and there is gentle, effective support available.

When clients come to see me, it’s so common for them to arrive with a list of things they want to change…. sometimes a list that feels “a mile long,” just like this lovely client shared.

And I always reassure them that we don’t have to work on everything individually, and that they absolutely won’t be my client forever.

When we do the deeper work around safety, calm, self worth, emotional regulation, identity and belief systems something almost magical happens…

- The habits begin to shift on their own
- The overwhelming feelings soften
- Patterns that felt lifelong start to fall away naturally

That is the power of hypnotherapy 🙌

And if you love the serenity of a beautiful garden setting like this client does, make sure to book in for a session with me in Cockatoo 🪴

So many women arrive in my space saying things like….

“I don’t know who I am anymore….”

“I feel like I’m going crazy….”

“I’m scared I’m too broken and nothing will fix me….”

If you’ve ever felt this way, please hear this with your whole heart:

You are not broken.
You are not losing your mind.
You are not alone.

These feelings are incredibly common for women who have spent years in survival mode…. caring for everyone else, navigating toxic dynamics, or living with emotional challenging relationships. When you’ve been hyper vigilant for so long, of course you lose connection with yourself. Of course you feel exhausted. Of course you don’t recognise the woman in the mirror anymore.

I know this because I’ve been there too.
And I also know that healing is absolutely possible…. gently, safely, and at a pace your nervous system can handle.

Hypnotherapy has this beautiful way of helping you reconnect with your inner voice, your truth, your worth…. the version of you that’s still in there, just buried under years of emotional noise.

If this speaks to you, please know you don’t have to figure anything out alone.

Your healing, clarity and self trust are closer than you think.

Hypnotherapy was the absolute game changer for me…. It was the final piece in the puzzle that gave me back my peace.

If you’re also longing to reconnect with yourself again, please reach out for a chat.

I offer free 30 minute discovery sessions face to face or over Zoom. See the link in bio to arrange a catch up 🤍

Today I’m sharing a collection of testimonials that really get to the heart of the transformations that I witness with my clients every day ❤️

Every time I read a client’s story, I’m reminded of why I do what I do.

So many of the women who come to me say things like, “I don’t even know who I am anymore.” And I completely understand this…. because I used to feel this way too. I know what it feels like to be exhausted, hyper-vigilant, and constantly second guessing yourself.

With Hypnotherapy, I’ve seen women completely rediscover themselves, release old patterns, and feel lighter, calmer, and more at peace than they have in years. I’ve seen them reconnect with their confidence, their clarity, and their joy; the parts of themselves that had been buried under fear, doubt, and past experiences.

These transformations are the heart of my work. This is why I really love what I do…. to help women step back into their power and remember who they truly are.

Perhaps you can see glimpses of yourself in some of these testimonials. If you’re feeling called to make a change this year…. and you’re looking for a compassionate and supportive space to find the real you, I would love to meet you ❤️
