You don’t need to relive the past to heal from OCD.

At Havisham Hypnotherapy, we focus on moving forward, not digging into what caused the problem.

🌿 Through Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, we reduce anxiety, calm the mind, and gently retrain your thought patterns so obsessive thoughts and compulsions no longer control your life.

You’ll learn to feel calm, capable, and in control again, even in situations that once felt impossible.

💬 Every session is a step toward a more peaceful you, using gentle conversation, focused goals, and deep relaxation techniques that tap into your subconscious and build new, healthier habits.

Freedom is possible, and it starts with one conversation.

Let’s clear up a common misconception about OCD.

Liking things neat or “just so” isn’t the same as living with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

For those with OCD, it’s not a quirk, it’s a cycle of crippling anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and distressing compulsions that can take over daily life. 😞

Many suffer in silence, hiding behind a mask because of shame or fear of being misunderstood. The rituals, the avoidance, the exhaustion — it’s overwhelming, isolating, and very real.

👉 OCD isn’t about being tidy.
👉 It’s about being trapped in a loop that feels impossible to break.

Understanding is the first step to compassion. 💛

And for those struggling, please know there is a way forward, and you don’t have to face it alone.

✨ What’s filling your cup at the moment? ✨

Taking time to recharge doesn’t have to be something big or elaborate… it can be as simple as a catch-up with a friend, a quiet moment to yourself, getting lost in a hobby you love, or even treating yourself to a relaxing spa day 💛

These little moments matter more than we often realise, they help calm the mind, restore balance, and bring a sense of wellbeing back into our day.

We’d love to hear from you…
👇 What’s one thing you’ve done recently (or are doing this weekend) to fill your cup?

Let’s share some inspiration with each other 💬

Panic attacks can feel overwhelming and frightening, like a sudden wave of intense worry or fear that’s hard to control 💭

They often happen when anxiety levels become too high, and your mind goes into “alert mode,” even if there’s no real danger present. It can be a response to stress, pressure, or situations that feel overwhelming.

The good news is, you don’t have to keep feeling this way 🤍

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy works by calming the mind, reducing anxiety levels, and helping you regain a sense of control. Over time, this can make panic attacks feel less intense, less frequent, and much more manageable 🌿

Imagine feeling calmer, more in control, and able to handle situations with ease ✨

Confidence isn’t something you’re born with, it’s something your mind can learn 🤍

And sometimes, it just needs a gentle nudge in the right direction ✨

Using Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, we work together to calm the mind, shift your mindset, and help you start seeing yourself in a more positive, compassionate way.

By combining talking therapy with trance, we can begin to let go of those unhelpful thoughts and beliefs that have been holding you back… and replace them with healthier, more empowering ones 💫

Imagine feeling more at ease in yourself.
More comfortable in social situations.
More able to recognise your strengths and everything that makes you you.

That version of you is already there, we just help you reconnect with it 🤍

If you’ve been thinking about building your confidence, I’d love to have a chat and see how I can support you.

Sessions vary depending on what you would like help with.

With mental health conditions, I usually find that a client’s level of commitment can determine the number of sessions. Other conditions that people come with have different factors that can contribute to how many sessions will be needed.

During the Initial consultation I will be able to offer an approximate number but ultimately, I am guided by my clients and their commitment!

I work with clients to guide them through calming visualizations,

An example would be, imagining walking barefoot through a forest—soft moss underfoot, sunlight streaming through the trees, the sound of birds overhead.

By the end, their whole body relaxes. Their breath slows. Their mind goes quiet.

Nature has a way of grounding us—even when we’re not physically there.

In hypnotherapy, we often use the natural world to help people reconnect to themselves.

Take this as a sign, that you need a moment for you today.

Living with OCD can feel exhausting, as though your thoughts and routines are controlling your day-to-day life. It’s far more than simply liking things a certain way. For many people, OCD brings intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and behaviours that can begin to feel automatic and overwhelming.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy offers a gentle and practical approach to help calm the mind and reduce anxiety. Rather than focusing on the problem, sessions focus on your strengths, progress, and the future you want to create, helping you feel calmer, more confident, and more in control of everyday life. ✨

OCD can show up in different ways, including intrusive thoughts, checking rituals, perfectionism, or fears around contamination and washing. These behaviours often begin as a way to cope with stress or anxiety, but over time they can become difficult to break without the right support.

You’re not alone - around 1 in 50 people experience OCD symptoms at some point in their lives. With the right understanding and support, it is possible to move forward. 💭

Most clients attend 8–12 sessions, though results can vary depending on the severity of symptoms. As with any therapeutic approach, your commitment to the process plays an important role in creating lasting change.

Something you may see, is that I am NCH (National Council for Hypnotherapy) accredited as a Solution Focused Supervisor. So I thought I would share this review that touches on exactly that.

This individual went on to say, "She’s incredibly supportive, approachable, and genuinely cares about her students and supervises. Whether you’re in training or looking for support, she creates a safe and comfortable space face to face or online where you feel listened to and understood.

As my supervisor, she’s helped me grow in confidence and develop my practice by advising me, providing recommendations, knowledge & lots of encouragement. I’d highly recommend Caron to anyone looking for training in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, supervision or therapy – her guidance and support are invaluable."

Despite the amount of rain we've seen over the past few months, glimspes of brighter days have peaked through recently! Spring will soon be here. 🐣🌸🐑

But seasonal changes are something that some struggle with.

This is known as SAD.

Even though the weather is nice at the moment, as things change, some people are affected differently.

It might be that winter and darker nights are what you're dreading so we thought we would mention how solution focused hypnotherapy can help you work through this.

We can also set goals and challenges that increase dopamine and serotonin levels and you can work on these in between our sessions.

If you can relate, let's talk!

Helping you to be you again

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a positive, forward thinking therapy that can help you relax your mind, gain control, enjoy your life and feel like the real you again! Using the very latest techniques, and based on the most current research in neuroscience, I can help you to achieve fast, long-term results. Hypnotherapy is best described as a combination of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy. While Psychotherapy is a useful tool for the treatment of most ailments of the mind, when combined with hypnosis it allows the subconscious mind to encourage and make changes that benefit you. I practice Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. I focus on finding solutions for the future and I do not dwell on your past. The techniques I use are designed to relieve the symptoms of anxiety and relax the mind so that you can once again feel calm and positive, more like you again. The core of SFH is helping people with a variety of issues to remember what is positive or good in their lives as this is so easily forgotten in the whirlwind of our daily lives and of course even more so when we are steeped in complete negativity and cannot see a way out. Using a variety of tools and working together with the client we literally change the mindset, rewiring the brain to change their habit of thinking in a negative way to a positive way, also calming the mind and restoring confidence. This helps them feel in control once again.

There are no words for how rewarding being a hypnotherapist is - watching clients literally turning their lives around, overcoming obstacles and helping them to be the person they recognise again. I am passionate and completely enthusiastic about Solution Focused Hypnotherapy - I will do everything I can to help you to feel like you again!
