From Mickleover it's roughly 3 miles down the A516 Uttoxeter Road to the Wilson Street clinic in DE1. Clients often combine in-person sessions with online sessions between appointments, particularly during busy weeks.

The approach here is integrative: clinical hypnotherapy, NLP-informed reframing, regression where relevant, delivered inside a clear structure. It's not open-ended talking therapy — sessions are focused, and change is expected inside a sensible window.

How the therapy is structured

  1. Step 1

    Bridge sessions with tools

    You leave with practical tools so between-session weeks are worked, not wasted.

  2. Step 2

    Address the driver

    Using clinical hypnotherapy and, where useful, NLP-informed reframing, we work at the level the pattern actually runs on.

  3. Step 3

    Review and adjust

    Every few sessions we step back and check the direction — nothing is done to you without your say-so.

  4. Step 4

    Start with regulation

    Nothing is processed while your nervous system is dysregulated. Sessions begin with body-level tools that work the same day.

  • Clinical hypnotherapy is a focused, awake state — closer to guided attention than sleep.

Common questions from Mickleover

How is this different from meditation?+

Working with Mickleover clients, Meditation is generalised attention practice; clinical hypnosis is targeted therapeutic work with a defined outcome.

What if I fall asleep?+

Sometimes clients drift; it does not stop the work — but the intent is a focused, awake state.

How many sessions will I need?+

It depends on the issue — habits and phobias are often 2–6 sessions; complex or trauma-linked work is longer.

Will I remember the session?+

Yes. You will remember what happened, and you can end the session at any moment.

What does hypnosis actually feel like?+

Most people describe it as pleasantly relaxed, aware and absorbed — similar to being lost in a book or a piece of music.
