Before you get in touch

How is this different from meditation?+

A common one from Willington: 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.

Is it evidence-based?+

Clinical hypnotherapy has good evidence in anxiety, IBS, pain and habit change — it is used inside NHS and academic settings.

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.

Can I be hypnotised?+

Almost everyone can, if they choose to engage — hypnosis is a skill of paying attention, not a passive event.

The approach in practice

  1. Step 1

    Review and adjust

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

  2. Step 2

    Bridge sessions with tools

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

  3. Step 3

    Consolidate the change

    Change has to hold beyond the session. Self-hypnosis, a short practice or a home task keeps it embedded.

  4. Step 4

    Address the driver

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