"Through neuroplasticity, the small choices we repeat every day can strengthen our neural circuits and rewire our brains to make certain behaviours more automatic, which is exactly what Gu has trained her mind to do."
Olympic athlete, Eileen Gu uses the same techniques as hypnotherapy does to program herself to win.
😀🥇🏆❄️
“You can control what you think. You can control how you think. And therefore, you can control who you are. And especially as a young person, I’m 22, so with neuroplasticity on my side, I can literally become exactly who I want to be.”

My role isn’t to give you the answers — it’s to help you uncover the strengths, clarity, and resources you already possess. When life feels heavy or you’re feeling stuck, I’m here to guide you back to your own inner wisdom. 🌿💫

I've finally started asking clients to share a review on google.
After 18 years practicing... and it really makes my day! 😃

I help people in Bristol reframe the beliefs that hold them back — quickly and practically. One client went from “I won't speak up” to confidently sharing ideas at meetings after a handful of sessions. We use Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy plus Embodied Resilience techniques to target specific blocks and build measurable shifts in confidence and daily life.

I can help you make small, practical shifts that lead to real change.
👉Together we focus on achievable steps — not reliving trauma — and combine hypnotherapy with embodiment to calm your nervous system.
☀️Many clients notice their morning panic and general stress ease within weeks and are able to manage busy days with more confidence.

Feeling overwhelmed? Here are three simple resilience exercises you can try today, to help reduce overwhelm and build emotional stamina.
1) Ground-and-Name (for rumination): Pause, plant your feet, take three slow breaths and name three sensations — e.g., “warmth in my hands, feet on the floor, steady breath.” Clinically, grounding shifts attention from repetitive thoughts into present-moment, interrupting the rumination loop.
2) The Pause-and-List (for short temper): When irritation rises, take a 30-second pause and list two possible responses and their likely outcomes. This brief gap helps you engage the prefrontal cortex and choose a calmer action.
3) Micro-Recovery Ritual (for burnout): Schedule two 5-minute recovery rituals into your day — gentle stretching, a tea break without screens, or breathing at a window. These tiny, regular resets lower stress hormones and rebuild capacity over time.
These are practical, evidence-informed 1st Aid exercises I use to teach in my resilience workshops.
✨ What will you try today? Let me know below.

Dear clients and community,
We are beginning to get more organised after the dreadful floods two weeks ago.
Sadly the Bridges Community Centre have an awful lot of work to do before they can safely let us back in.
So, in the meantime, I have secured a lovely room at “the place to be” above Dylan’s crystal shop. It’s on the high street (ie Monnow Street), but on the 1st and 2nd floor: so, we’ll be nice and cozy up there.

Morning everyone.
I hope all my Wye valley clients and friends are safe and dry.
I’m personally fine, but obviously The Bridges Community Centre has been badly affected by the floods.
I will be going to help out this week for the clear up.
Hypnotherapy for Monmouth clients is moved online and to Chepstow.

Bristol appointments remain unchanged.

Take care everyone,
Stephanie
