FAQs

Can anyone be hypnotised?

Yes, most people can be hypnotised. Success largely depends on your willingness to engage in the process and trust in the therapist.

Are online hypnotherapy sessions as effective as face-to-face sessions?

Absolutely. Online hypnotherapy is just as effective as working together in person — and for many clients, even more so. Being in a familiar environment can help you relax more deeply and feel safer to open up.

Hypnosis isn’t something I do to you – it’s a natural state that you create, simply by allowing yourself to relax, trust in me, believe in the process, and be ready for change. Whether we’re in the same room or working online, your subconscious responds in exactly the same way. I use a secure online platform to ensure the same level of care, personalisation, and results.

Why should I invest in a 5-week hypnotherapy programme with daily mentoring instead of weekly sessions with no contact in between?

A structured 5-week programme with daily mentoring provides an intensive and personalised approach to transformation. Daily engagement fosters commitment, consistency, and deeper change, ensuring you receive tailored support as your progress unfolds.

Is hypnotherapy effective for stopping smoking?

Many people who smoke have already tried to quit – whether through willpower alone or nicotine replacement methods. If you’re considering hypnotherapy, you’re taking a powerful step towards stopping for good.

Is hypnotherapy equivalent to being in a trance?

No, hypnotherapy does not induce a trance in the way people often imagine. Instead, it guides you into a deeply relaxed state where you remain fully aware and in control. This allows you to engage actively in the therapeutic process while accessing your subconscious mind.

How does Content-Free Hypnotherapy compare to Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT)?

Content-Free Hypnotherapy focuses on the emotional response rather than specific details, making it a gentler, less intrusive approach. It allows the subconscious mind to process and release emotions without the need to revisit past events.
In contrast, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) often involves exploring specific memories to address issues. Some clients prefer the non-directive nature of Content-Free Hypnotherapy, particularly if they wish to avoid reliving difficult experiences.

Is hypnotherapy only for specific issues, or can it address a wide range of concerns?

Hypnotherapy is highly versatile and can help with a wide range of issues, including stress, anxiety, phobias, and habits. It takes a holistic approach, addressing both emotional and subconscious patterns to promote lasting change.

Is hypnotherapy covered by my health or wellbeing insurance?

Some insurance providers and wellbeing services do cover hypnotherapy, either fully or as a contribution towards the cost. You will need to check your individual policy or enquire with your employer if they offer a wellbeing package.
I am fully insured by Balens Insurance UK and registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC), which is regulated by the Professional Standards Authority. My CNHC membership number is CNHC06237.

What are your qualifications?

I am a fully qualified hypnotherapist with a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy from the Academy of Integrated Hypnotherapy, where I trained under Dr. Claire Jack. I am also a certified RTT Practitioner, having trained with Marisa Peer, and I trained in both Kinetic Shift and Advanced Hypnotherapy with Karl Smith at the UK Hypnosis Academy.
Specialising in content-free hypnosis and advanced techniques for anxiety, stress, and trauma resolution, my expertise lies in deep subconscious work, helping clients achieve profound and lasting change.

In addition, I am a Reiki Master, using energy work to support emotional balance and overall well-being. While Reiki is separate from my hypnotherapy practice, it provides a valuable complementary approach for those interested in holistic healing.

Are you accredited or a member of any professional organisations?

Yes, I am a fully qualified and accredited hypnotherapist, committed to the highest standards of professionalism and ethics. I am registered with:

✔ CNHC (Complementary & Natural Healthcare Council) – Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA), meaning practitioners on this register meet national standards. CNHC registration is recognised within healthcare settings, and GPs can refer patients to CNHC-registered practitioners.

✔ National Hypnotherapy Society (NHSoc) – Holds an accredited register with the PSA and is the first and currently only hypnotherapy register to be accredited under the PSA’s Accredited Registers programme.

✔ Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT) – A well-respected UK professional membership organisation for complementary therapy practitioners.

✔ General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) & General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC) – Supporting professional excellence and accredited training in hypnotherapy.
These memberships demonstrate my commitment to high ethical standards, ongoing training, and professional integrity, ensuring that my work meets strict professional guidelines.
