Hypnotherapy
"Problems are like plants; you've got to get to the roots in order to prevent them from popping up again"
Brian G Jeff
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis in order to facilitate positive change. Hypnosis is incredibly safe and is simply a relaxed state of awareness which brings your subconscious mind to the fore.
Whilst your conscious mind is in charge of thinking, analysing and logic, your subconscious is where you hold your beliefs, memories, experiences, behaviours and habits. Your subconscious mind becomes a model for how you will behave in the future; creating a ‘programme’ of future responses based on past experiences. That’s why we often behave in certain ways or get stuck in bad habits – they are just programmed into our subconscious and we keep following the programme without being aware that we’re doing it.
Within hypnosis we can access this part of your mind to create new, more helpful 'programmes'. All of my hypnotherapy sessions are conducted via Zoom. It works in exactly the same way as face-to-face sessions and many of my clients prefer this as they can relax more easily in their own homes.

How does it work?
Most people describe being in hypnosis as feeling incredibly relaxed, but also acutely aware. You are in complete control and will only enter hypnosis if you want to. And you can’t get ‘stuck’ in hypnosis. Likewise you can’t be made to do anything you don’t want to do! It’s a very safe and natural process.
There are different techniques we can use when you’re in hypnosis from the straight-forward approach of planting positive and helpful suggestions into your mind to a more psychoanalytical approach. The approach we take will depend entirely on your personal situation and needs.

KATRINA, BERKSHIRE
My son was suffering terribly from anxiety and this was having a very big impact on his eating and self confidence. Having used Lindsay's services previously myself, I knew she would be able to help. My son has worked through the things that were troubling him and felt he could trust Lindsay enough to confide in her which is very difficult for a 16 year old! He is so much more confident in himself now and really talks to us if there is anything on his mind and shares his thoughts and feelings too. I have recommended Lindsay to a number of people now.
NAOMI, BERKSHIRE
I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I am more in control of my body and my cravings have ceased. I feel much healthier. Drinking wine had become a daily habit that was hard to break. Since seeing Lindsay I have had no cravings for wine and feel much healthier and happier. Lindsay was non-judgmental, empathetic and seemed genuinely interested in helping me. She took the time to talk to me prior to the session to understand what my issues were and tailored a programme specific to my needs.
JAMES, HAMPSHIRE
Since the session I have been smoke-free and have never looked back. Even when stressed at work I do not need a cigarette and when I have been out socially with other smokers I have not been tempted to have one! I am excited to tell people now! Lindsay was very easy to talk to and I felt completely relaxed with her. She was a good listener and used my own words during the session which demonstrates her ability to take on board the reasons why it was so important to me personally. Lindsay, thank you for giving me my life back.
