Hypnotherapy with Dean, Clinical Hypnotherapist

Looking for evidence Hypnotherapy is effective and science proved?

The British Medical Association (BMA) has acknowledged hypnotherapy as a legitimate clinical treatment.

This recognition paves the way for its wider acceptance, including potential integration into the NHS. While hypnotherapy has long been used to treat issues like anxiety, phobias, and chronic pain, it has often existed outside mainstream medicine. The BMA’s support is significant, helping to shift perceptions and validate hypnotherapy as evidence-based and effective when practised professionally.

Despite this progress, hypnotherapy is not yet widely available on the NHS. To reach that point, the field must continue building its evidence base, strengthen practitioner regulation, and work with NHS commissioners to demonstrate both safety and cost-effectiveness.

Some NHS services already offer hypnotherapy in specific areas, such as IBS treatment and pain management. As demand grows and patient outcomes improve, broader NHS adoption becomes more likely. For now, patients can still access hypnotherapy privately, often with strong results.

This endorsement by the BMA marks an important moment. It brings hypnotherapy closer to being recognised as a valuable option in mainstream mental and physical healthcare. It’s not about replacing existing treatments, but adding another meaningful tool to support wellbeing and recovery.

Finding Your Tribe Starts With Finding Yourself

Have you ever felt out of place, like you're always adjusting to be accepted? That feeling often comes from trying to fit in, not belong. Real belonging starts when you stop performing and start showing up as yourself.
Your tribe isn’t just people you spend time with — it’s those who see you, support you, and allow you to breathe fully. They don’t need the filtered version of you. They just get you.

But here’s the truth: before you can find those people, you need to find yourself. When you understand your values, your needs, and your energy, you stop chasing the wrong connections. You begin to notice who feels right — and who doesn't.
For many, hypnotherapy helps uncover the hidden beliefs that keep them stuck in old patterns: fear of rejection, people-pleasing, low self-worth. When those shift, something powerful happens. You speak up more. You trust your gut. And your people begin to appear.
You’re not too much. You’re not behind. Maybe your tribe is waiting for the real you to show up. And once you do, everything changes

Feeling Overwhelmed? Here’s What It Really Means and What You Can Do

Feeling overwhelmed is more than just stress — it’s the sense that everything is “too much.” You might feel mentally scattered, emotionally drained, physically tense, and unsure where to even begin. It often shows up as anxiety, irritability, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, or avoidance.

Overwhelm happens when demands exceed your current capacity — whether that’s from work overload, emotional strain, perfectionism, poor boundaries, or a build-up of small stresses over time. It’s your system’s way of saying: slow down and pay attention.

So what can you do? First, pause. Breathe deeply. Ground yourself in the present moment. Then, identify what’s contributing to the overload and break tasks into small, manageable steps. Prioritise what matters, say no where you need to, and practice self-care: sleep, movement, nutrition, rest.

In hypnotherapy, we help you shift from survival mode to resource mode — where you reconnect with calm, clarity, and confidence. You don’t have to carry everything alone.

If you feel overwhelmed, it's a message worth listening to. And there’s a way forward — lighter, steadier, and more in control

How We Mirror People’s Attitudes and Feelings – And How to Use It Positively

We often unconsciously mirror the emotions, body language, tone, and even attitudes of those around us. Known as emotional mirroring, this powerful, biologically wired behaviour helps us build rapport and empathy. In hypnotherapy, it’s especially valuable—used wisely, it fosters trust and deepens the therapeutic connection.

This mirroring comes from mirror neurons in the brain, which activate both when we act and when we observe someone else. It’s why we may feel uplifted around positive people or drained by negativity. As therapists, we can harness this by consciously creating a calm, grounded presence, encouraging clients to reflect that emotional state back.

However, unchecked mirroring can lead to emotional overload or reinforce a client’s distress. The key is balance: connect first by matching their state, then gently lead them into a more resourceful, solution-focused mindset.

Instead of being pulled into negativity, choose to be the emotional leader. Your calm, positive energy can be the mirror your clients need to shift. This simple yet powerful technique not only enhances outcomes—it also sets your hypnotherapy practice apart
