✨ New year, new beginnings! ✨
Over the holidays, the Golden Bay Hypnotherapy rooms took a beautifully aligned turn, and I’m really happy to share that I’ll now be sharing my space with two very special people.
We are three hypnotherapists working from the same space, each of us bringing our own unique approaches, perspectives, and areas of focus to the work we do.
Takaka may be a small town, but I truly believe there’s more than enough room here for all of us — and for the different ways people find support and change.
Here's a short introduction to each of us and the work we do.
Rachael – Phone 022 637 0497
https://goldenbayhypnotherapy.com/
Rachael is a Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist with Hypnosis New Zealand, Certified NLP Practitioner, Simpson Protocol Practitioner, CliftonStrengths Coach, and the practitioner of Golden Bay Hypnotherapy.
She specialises in trauma release, PTSD, and CPTSD, offering a safe, respectful, and nervous-system-aware pathway for resolving the lasting effects of overwhelming experiences. Her work focuses on gently addressing root causes at the subconscious level, supporting deep and sustainable change rather than short-term symptom management.
Rachael also supports clients in releasing long-standing habits and patterns, including a highly successful stop-smoking program and emotional weight loss protocol. Integrating clinical hypnotherapy, NLP, Simpson Protocol, and strengths-based coaching, her approach is calm, practical, and non-judgmental, creating a space where clients feel supported and empowered, and able to change at their own pace.
Debbie - Phone 021 913 084
https://www.debbierey.com/
Debbie is a Clinical Hypnotherapist and Trauma Release Practitioner who supports individuals to gently release emotional blocks, trauma, anxiety, stress and limiting beliefs — helping them move beyond old patterns and create lasting change.
Using a blend of hypnotherapy, Emotion & Body Code, Inner Child work and Past Life Regression, Debbie supports clients to find clarity, build inner strength and experience genuine joy. She also offers one-to-one Sound Healing sessions, using therapeutic vibration and frequency to support deep relaxation and nervous system regulation.
She facilitates transformative SoulCollage® and Vision Board workshops, guiding participants to access their inner wisdom, gain clarity, and reconnect with their true essence.
Kayla – Phone 027 788 5520
https://www.be-sovereign.ca/golden-bay-hypnotherapy
Kayla – Somatic Hypnotherapy & Sovereignty Circles
Kayla offers trauma-informed, body-led somatic hypnotherapy, supporting people who are working with anxiety, overwhelm, life transitions and relationship or attachment patterns.
Her work is gentle, relational and grounded in building nervous-system safety, self-trust and emotional resilience over time.
Kayla also facilitates Sovereignty Circles — outdoor ritual and reflection gatherings held in rhythm with the lunar cycle, each followed by a gentle group hypnotherapy session to support intention-setting, release and integration.
So, we’re grateful to be sharing this space together ❤ and to offer different ways of supporting change within our community.
If any of these approaches resonate, you’re warmly welcome to reach out to the practitioner who feels like the right fit for you!!
Roll on the year of the fire-horse!! And ❤ Takaka
