Wellbeing solutions backed by neuroscience in the form of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy and NLP. At Wellbeing In Mind Hypnotherapy (Essex), I combine hypnosis with solution-focused therapy and NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) to facilitate positive change in a relatively short period of time. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a modern, neuroscience-based approach that combines talking therapy with clinical hypnosis. It is a safe, evidence-based treatment with minimal side effects. NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) provides a way for us to understand why we do what we do and how our thoughts, feelings, beliefs and capabilities combine to drive our behaviour. Both modalities offer powerful ways to effect change in a relatively short space of time. I work by blending talking therapy with hypnosis in a gentle and supportive way that is outcome-focused, meaning you don’t have to talk about your problems. Instead, I help you focus on solutions that will move you forwards to a brighter future. Areas covered:
Anxiety, stress, depression, IBS, OCD, panic attacks, phobias, trauma, confidence and self-esteem, pain management, weight management, performance improvement, smoking/vaping cessation, and more. Please be aware that hypnotherapy is effective, however results may vary and success is not guaranteed. A degree of willpower and commitment is required, particularly for addictions, weight management and smoking/vaping cessation.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a type of "talking therapy" that combines psychotherapy with hypnosis to help you achieve positive changes by focusing on your goals and resources rather than past problems. It is a collaborative and future-oriented approach that uses a natural, relaxed state of hypnosis to help you find solutions to issues like anxiety, stress, low mood and phobias.

Continuing the “Ask me anything about how I work!” theme…

Q: How many sessions will I need?

A: That obviously depends on what you want to achieve and how you progress, but as general guide, it typically takes between 8 and 12 sessions. Phobias and smoking/vaping cessation often require fewer sessions. Complex issues such as OCD may take a lot more.

In each session, you will have a chance to review how far you’ve come and to discuss how we proceed. We can also adjust the frequency to match any budgetary constraints.

Much as I may love working with you, my aim is to get you to a place where you no longer need me and to do that as quickly as possible!

Our brains are hardwired to look for threats in our environment. This negative bias ensures our safety and survival but it can adversely impact our mental wellbeing if we don’t counterbalance it with positive experiences. Cultivate a habit of noticing the things in your day that make you smile or give you a sense of achievement. Seek out opportunities to do things that make you feel good. All the little things add up – don’t let them slip by unnoticed!

Not all stress is bad. We need a small amount of stress to motivate us into doing things or to help enhance our performance – we call this “challenge” stress. The issue comes when the stress is persistent or chronic, potentially leading to burnout and/or ill health – this is more commonly referred to as “threat” stress.

The main difference is that challenge stress has a lid on it, there’s an end in sight and it’s something you can deal with. Threat stress on the other hand is potentially ongoing and not something you feel equipped to handle. If you’re struggling with the latter, there are things you can do. A few sessions of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can really help you take back control.

Ask me anything about how I work!

Q: What can I expect during a session?

A: For most (but not all) issues, we tend to follow a fairly standard format that starts with you recounting all the good things that have happened since your previous session. We then talk about your desired future and the steps that will help to move you there. Finally, I guide you into a state of deep relaxation, which enhances the effectiveness of the talking therapy, allowing you to make changes at a subconscious level and consolidate them more quickly.

This approach is all about identifying and building on your existing strengths and setting clear, achievable goals. It works by rewiring your brain to create new, healthier patterns of thought, thereby breaking negative cycles and making it easier to move forwards.

My clients tell me they look forward to their sessions and always leave feeling more uplifted and positive.

Remember the saying “Look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves”? As well as being about financial prudence, it’s a lovely metaphor for building happiness into your life. When you develop a habit of creating and noticing small moments of joy throughout the day, you’re helping to drive a steady flow of feel-good chemicals that will lift your mood and improve cognitive function.

Fill your day with “pennies of joy” and your happiness will look after itself!

Do you regularly experience an overwhelming and persistent fear of social situations because you worry about being judged, scrutinised or humiliated? Maybe you avoid making phone calls, hold yourself back from work opportunities or decline social invitations. Social anxiety is real and it can mess with your attempts to live a fulfilling life.

Find out how Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can help you banish this insidious form of anxiety once and for all.

Ask me anything about how I work!

Q: What approach or techniques do you use?

A: I use a form of hypnotherapy called Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, which is a modern, evidence-based therapy that combines psychotherapy with hypnosis to help you focus on your goals and solutions rather than past problems. It is a collaborative, future-oriented approach that uses solution-focused questioning techniques and guided trance to promote positive change by building new thought patterns.

As an NLP Master Practitioner, I may also use neuro linguistic programming (NLP) techniques to support your progress.

When you feel stressed or anxious, pause for a moment and check in with yourself – are you worrying about something that hasn’t happened yet or are you ruminating over something in the past? Take a few slow, deeper breaths to calm your nervous system and reconnect with the more resourceful parts of your brain. Look at the situation from a different perspective and challenge any negative thought patterns.
