You don’t have to face it alone.

If anxiety, panic, or irrational fears are holding you back, hypnotherapy could help you feel calmer, more in control, and free to live your life fully.

🌀 Whether it’s fear of flying, public speaking, social anxiety or something more specific, my sessions are tailored to you.

✨ I’m currently offering FREE consultations to explore how hypnotherapy can support you in moving forward.

Let’s chat — no pressure, just a friendly conversation to see what’s possible.

Wow - LinkedIn reminded me today that it's 15 years since I completed my first hypnotherapy qualification with Adam Eason School of Therapeutic Hypnosis\Anglo European College of Therapeutic Hypnosis down in Bournemouth.

It really does seem like yesterday but I have done so much in that time.

I've seen many, many clients over thousands of hours, including students, company MDs, scientists, executives, homemakers, bankers, sportsmen and women, retired professionals, entrepreneurs...

I've completed many more hypnotherapy courses (including Hypnosis for Advanced Sports Performance and Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy to name two); courses in EMDR; qualified as a Mental Health First Aider and as a Hypnotherapy Supervisor.

I helped create Hypnocise, a weight loss and wellbeing programme; designed my own Self Hypnosis for Beginners course, as well as delivered workshops; spoken at business events and to local businesses.

I was also previously the Continuing Professional Development Officer for the Professional Hypnotherapy Network, now the UKHC.

I've also benefitted from hypnotherapy myself including using it to get over my fear of heights and go to a restaurant on the 37th floor of the Gherkin in London; to help with my IBS, and help me though difficult times.

More recently, I co-founded Revive+Thrive Events, which organises events aimed to help local people access different or adjunctive ways to manage their health, fitness and wellbeing.

Did I make the right decision to retrain and take up a new profession in my late 30s/early 40s?

Of course I did!

Does the sunshine make therapy feel less urgent?

You're not imagining it — sunny weather boosts serotonin and lifts mood (Lambert et al., 2002). That’s why my hypnotherapy practice often gets quieter in hot, bright months.

But here’s the thing: the issues don’t go away. They’re just easier to ignore when you feel good. Then the clouds return… and so do the struggles.

Hypnotherapy helps you deal with what’s underneath the surface. You don’t have to wait for a rainy day to start.

Ready when you are … but book a free consultation now if you want to get started before the rainy day https://buff.ly/QYcJPoq

Always amazing to get a lovely email update from a client, especially when she also gives me a 5 star Google review as well...⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Annalise is simply amazing!

After 4 sessions I feel completely different and can’t recommend her enough. Annalise is not only a fantastic hypnotherapist but she is the most genuine, caring and kindest person. Her knowledge is exceptional and she makes you feel so at ease, taking the time to explain everything without rushing.

I feel a huge improvement and am absolutely delighted with the results!!"

I'm so pleased that this lovely lady got the results she wanted 🤗

If you are interested in seeing how hypnotherapy could help you, why not book a free consultation?

I was honoured to be invited to the opening of the Greenham Oncology Centre yesterday.

This is a wellbeing and supportive care centre based in the grounds of Basingstoke Hospital.

A lot of care and thought has gone into the centre, and the garden has been named after the Countess Mountbatten of Burma's daughter, who sadly passed away at a young age.

We were proud to have the Ark Cancer Charity at our Revive+Thrive show in April and hope we helped in some small way.
