Katie Yarham Balance: Hypnotherapy

01/03/2026

This week has been about investing in ME. Before you can hold space for others it’s so important to feel grounded and confident. I wanted to fine tune a few things so…

❣️ I started the week with completing some training on Domestic Abuse - my role as a Holistic/Massage therapist and trainer, and Clincial Hypnotherapist I thought it would be invaluable to learn about the signs of DB and feel more confident in offering support ☺️

🎵 I had a refresher training day for the Himalayan Singing Bowl Massage Course and now I’m excited to start offering this treatment from April!

🧠 I’m now a qualified Meditation Practitioner Teacher and Mindfulness Life Coach and will be implementing elements of mindfulness in my NEW wellbeing session - coming very soon!

In essence, mindfulness is a practice I needed for myself. My ADHD brain rushes off in so many different directions and I wanted to learn some more tools for my own tool box. To then share with others too.

I have a BIG announcement 📣 to make this month and I’m so excited to share it. It’s been a dream of mine for a long time and I’m so happy 😃

🤍🤍 The in between bit, the time where no one knows what day of the week it is and feeling full with festive treats! 🫢

But an opportunity to say I hope you had a wonderful Christmas 🎄 and are looking forward to a new year ahead.

It can be a challenging time of year, for all sorts of reasons but a time to reflect, and look to make positive changes for 2026.

My focus next year is to help women struggling with physical and mental stress; burnout; and a muddled mind when dealing with a late ADHD diagnosis, and the ongoing challenges that comes with neurodivergence; physical pain (e.g. fibromyalgia); and women’s reproductive health issues such as endometriosis and period pain.

Alongside this, perimenopause can be completely debilitating, confusing and isolating - my personal experience with this and a late diagnosis of ADHD and continued educational study, can support you with your journey. Whether this be the mental challenges and/or physical ones, such as changes in your skin, body shape, confidence and emotions.

I’m excited to fully launch 🚀 my Solution Focused Hypnotherapy services in person and online too! Working with our own thoughts is so powerful and empowering.

Combining touch therapies (massage), sound therapy (sound journeys and himalayan singing bowls body treatment), and hypnotherapy have massively helped me to improve my mental health - and with that physical symptoms of perimenopause and a racing mind.

Join me here to see how your mind and body can be balanced, in a nurturing, supportive and productive way, with TOUCH, SOUND and/or HYPNOTHERAPY.

Best wishes, Katie xx 🤍

Be kind to your mind 💙

The language we use matters 🧡

Reframing ADHD traits helps shift the focus from “problems” to “potential.”

Which of these reframes resonates with you most?

I love this analogy! My initial interpretation of this is that we each have control over the size of the spoon in the glass, how quickly we stir it and if we even need to stir it at all.

Metaphorically speaking (and metaphors play a big part in the psychotherapy aspect of your Solution Focused Hypnotherapy sessions with me) our thoughts 💭 govern the outcomes of what we see in front of us, and influence how we behave. Keep churning over what comes into your mind and your thoughts can become foggy, muddy and difficult to understand.

Give yourself the opportunity to be still, and take a step back from prodding and analysing the tiniest things you see in front of you.

This can be challenging and I know first hand how the cycle 🔁 of negative thinking can spiral 🌀..

One thought leads to another, and another, and another, and it eats you up inside. And before you know it, you have created a major catastrophe in your head. You can’t help it.

But it doesn’t need to be this way.

💙Baby steps
💙Forward focus on small possibilities.
💙After all, your brain 🧠 doesn’t know the difference between imagination and reality. You CAN create a better version of yourself. I’m just here to guide you in a different direction.

What do you see in the picture below ⬇️ ?

🥂 I DID IT! 🧠

🗓️10 months of study (one weekend a month)
🕣120 hours of class-room based training
🙋🏼‍♀️Numerous client case study sessions and homestudy

And I’m officially a Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapist/Psychotherapist!

I now feel at peace with myself and my mind. I’ve been able to accept who I am, embrace my ADHD nuances, raise my confidence and believe that I’m good enough.

Life throws curveballs and this time around I’ve started to heal myself inside out.

I’m feeling so proud of myself..
I haven’t felt this in tune with myself since I studied for my Psychology and Sociology degree 20+ years ago and then going into the Beauty Industry in my mid 20’s. They say every 9 years we look to move forward in a different way with a new beginning. That’s most certainly true when I reflect back.

Now to make plans for the future and become the best version of myself to be able to help facilitate the best version of others.

This 100% describes what it’s like for me and I bet the majority of us with ADHD. And this had got to an overwhelming point where I couldn’t attend meetings, work events and socials with my friends. When I could, I felt that I wasn’t being myself due to the side effects of the medication I was taking, and it dulled my sparkle.

By taking the time and space to understand my brain, triggers, and being kinder to myself I beginning to unravel the real me. I now say no if I can’t or don’t want to do something and standing up for myself. It’s still a challenge living with ‘my brain’ but nearly 10 months into my Solution Focused Hypnotherapy training and huge shifts have been able to happen.

I totally get what it feels like to juggle the hormones, stresses and being a woman in your 40’s with a recent diagnosis of ADHD.

I’m currently still taking on a handful of new clients at a reduced rate and this will increase when I qualify at the end of June 😊 So I’d love to hear from you if you’d like to find out what it involves.

When Anxiety doesn’t stop 🛑 when it’s the weekend (and a bank holiday)…

13/05/2025

🔵 It’s Mental Health Awareness Week 🔵
And this one sits close to home…

I’ve lived with anxiety, depression. And ADHD (undiagnosed until recently - August last year). I know what it’s like to feel stuck in your own head, trying to make sense of the overwhelm while putting on a brave face.

For a long time, I felt like I was just getting by. That’s why I do what I do now.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy helped me shift my focus—gently, steadily—from survival to something softer, calmer, and more hopeful. This approach doesn’t dwell on the past. It meets you where you are and helps you build towards where you want to be:

* Less anxiety
* More clarity
* Better sleep
* A stronger sense of self

If you’re struggling, know this: there is a way through. You don’t have to have it all figured out. Just take the next small step.

I’m here if you ever want to talk 🗣️

It’s always a privilege to support clients on their journey toward positive change. Here’s what one client kindly shared about their experience working with me.

🧠 Hypnotherapy is often misunderstood—and that’s totally fair.
We’ve all seen the stage shows and movie versions that make it look like some kind of mind trick.

But real hypnotherapy? It’s much more down-to-earth. It’s about helping you relax, feel safe, and create space for change—without losing control or zoning out.

Below ⬇️ I’ve shared a few common myths I hear all the time, along with the truth behind them.

If you’ve been curious about hypnotherapy but weren’t quite sure what to expect, this is for you.

Got questions or something you’ve always wondered about it? Feel free to drop me a message or leave a comment—I’m always happy to chat.

STRESS is part of modern life—but it doesn’t have to run the show.

In the UK, over 74% of adults have felt so stressed in the last year that they struggled to cope (Mental Health Foundation, 2023).

It can quietly affect sleep, digestion, focus, and overall wellbeing.

🧠 Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy offers a calm, supportive space to:
• Gently slow down racing thoughts
• Reconnect with your inner resources
• Focus on what’s working—and build from there

If you’re feeling the weight of stress, know that change is possible.
You don’t have to do it alone ☺️

Let’s have a chat—message me to find out how hypnotherapy could support you.
