How the work is delivered
- Step 1
Address the driver
Using clinical hypnotherapy and, where useful, NLP-informed reframing, we work at the level the pattern actually runs on.
- Step 2
Prepare for real life
The final phase rehearses the pattern under normal life stress, so results don't collapse the moment life gets busy.
- Step 3
Bridge sessions with tools
You leave with practical tools so between-session weeks are worked, not wasted.

Before you get in touch
Will I lose control under hypnosis?+
For clients in Tutbury (DE13) specifically: No. Hypnosis is a focused awake state — you can speak, move and open your eyes at any point.
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.
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.
Is hypnotherapy the same as stage hypnosis?+
No. Clinical hypnotherapy is a therapeutic modality, delivered inside a professional protocol, not for entertainment.
