The Benefits of Strategic Hypnotherapy
Unlike some therapeutic approaches Strategic Hypnosis focuses on getting long lasting results in as short a time as possible.

Many people get significant results after just a couple of sessions, and get great results after just 6 sessions. Don’t waste another day. There is a cost to therapy, and there is a cost to not doing the therapy.
We can help you dramatically improve your life. Just book your FREE session and make a start.

I was unsure if I could quit vaping socially, even though I stopped vaping while I am on my own. It felt like a different struggle to control cravings in social settings when I could easily borrow a vape from a friend. Peter highlighted a few points that changed how I approached this challenge, helping me pull my skills in quitting on my own to overcoming my cravings while around friends. We also addressed some other issues that came up that made "saying no" to the vape harder around others. I feel more aligned with my goals now and happy to invoke more choice when I decide to vape. I can say no, rather than feeling like I don't have a choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Not sure yet? Here are the answers to some common questions
Clinical Hypnotherapy is a transformative practice that uses hypnosis to reach beyond the conscious mind, where we often encounter self-imposed barriers. By bypassing these limitations, we can delve directly into the unconscious mind to facilitate significant change. In a state of focused attention, you’ll find it easier to ignore external distractions and embrace tailored suggestions that align with your specific goals. This method is not only safe but also allows you to remain fully aware and in control throughout the process. Many describe the experience as being in a relaxed state where they are present yet feel an intriguing sense of detachment—perfect for fostering personal growth.
Strategic psychotherapy is a focused, goal-driven approach that emphasises identifying and achieving specific therapeutic aims. Rather than delving deeply into the reasons behind a problem, it prioritises where you want to go. Understanding the root of a challenge may not lead to solutions; instead, concentrating on how to address the issue enables us to formulate effective strategies for lasting change.
- Problem-solving focus: This approach targets issues or symptoms that clients wish to resolve, without requiring an exhaustive exploration of their life history.
- Collaborative approach: The therapist and client partner to establish clear, attainable goals, crafting strategies together. While the therapist guides the process, the client remains the expert on their own challenges.
- Directive techniques: A range of direct suggestions, assignments, and tasks are utilised to facilitate progress toward achieving goals.
- Flexibility: Therapists adjust their methods based on each client’s unique responses and progress, ensuring a tailored experience.
Strategic psychotherapy integrates various therapeutic models, such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and brief therapeutic techniques. Its main aim is to empower clients with practical tools and strategies to effectively manage their concerns.
Anyone seeking to break free from the barriers that hold them back in life can find value in this approach. If you’re weary of endlessly discussing your issues without seeing tangible results, and you’re ready to take actionable steps toward change, this therapy could be the right fit for you. It’s designed for those who are motivated to move forward, embrace practical strategies, and achieve their goals—transforming their challenges into opportunities for growth.
During your first therapy session, we’ll explore the reasons that brought you to seek help and identify your treatment goals. We’ll discuss your medical history and any current challenges you may be facing. Together, we’ll create a personalised plan that aligns with your objectives and sets the stage for your therapeutic journey.
Choosing a hypnotherapist is a key step in your journey, and here’s why I could be the right match for you:
- Advanced Techniques: I utilise cutting-edge hypnotherapy methods that incorporate the latest developments in the field, ensuring effective treatment for a range of concerns.
- Focus on Results: My approach fuses strategic psychotherapy with the transformative potential of hypnotherapy, prioritising measurable results that cater to your specific needs.
- Customised Sessions: Each session is designed with your unique circumstances in mind. I blend innovative hypnotherapy techniques with proven psychotherapy methods to create a personalised plan.
- Evidence-Based Care: My practices are informed by the latest research, providing you with reliable and effective treatment options.
- Supportive Atmosphere: I am dedicated to fostering a safe, compassionate environment where you can freely explore your challenges and pursue meaningful change.
If you’re looking for a hypnotherapist who blends modern practices with a focus on outcomes, let’s discuss how I can help you reach your goals.
The frequency of your therapy sessions will be based on your unique needs and aspirations. Many clients attend weekly, while others may find less frequent visits more suitable. Together, we will establish a personalised plan that aligns with your goals. As this approach emphasises results, extended therapy over long periods is generally unnecessary.
It’s important to remember that there’s no correct way to experience hypnosis. Although some people think that a deeper state of relaxation is required for optimal results, this is a misconception. The success of your session is based on your openness and active participation in the experience, not solely on how relaxed you feel. You can still benefit from the process even if you don’t reach a profound state of relaxation.
During a hypnosis session, you can expect the following steps:
- Induction: The session begins with an induction phase, where you’ll be gently led into a relaxed hypnotic state. This often includes focusing on your internal breath and physical sensations, allowing thoughts to come and go, while trusting that your subconscious knows how to guide you.
- Suggestions: Once in this relaxed state, you will receive gentle suggestions tailored to your goals. You’ll learn to take charge of your thoughts and recognise what is within your control. This holistic approach aims to cultivate a sense of clarity and empowerment, reinforcing the idea that meaningful change is within reach.
- Emerging from Hypnosis: At the end of the session, after absorbing the important insights, you will be softly guided back to full awareness, feeling centred and present.
Hypnosis is definitely not like sleeping. During hypnosis, you experience a profound sense of relaxation combined with focused attention. You remain fully conscious and aware of your surroundings, making it a unique state distinct from sleep.
No, clinical hypnosis is not like the theatrical performances you see in movies or on stage. It is a legitimate form of therapy often integrated into a comprehensive treatment plan alongside traditional approaches. You cannot be made to do anything against your will, and you won’t disclose any secrets you want to keep private. While hypnosis can enhance your ability to absorb suggestions, it does not control your actions or force you into any experiences you don’t choose to have.
