Solution Focused Hypnotherapy
About Me & My Practice
Welcome. I’m Michelle. After 25 years in financial services and close insight into the creative industries, I know first hand how the pace and demands of modern life can wear us down over time.
For me, it showed up as anxiety, overthinking, and a constant cycle of self doubt. I would over prepare, replay my performance in a negative light, and spend weekends worrying about the week ahead. The reality was that I was exhausting myself over things I couldn’t change and because the brain doesn’t distinguish between imagination and reality, those worries felt just as heavy as lived experience. Confidence slipped away, sleep was disrupted, and life began to feel like survival mode rather than living.
That personal experience led me to Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH). I’m currently training with Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training (CPHT), the UK’s leading provider of hypnotherapy education. SFH is a modern, forward looking approach grounded in neuroscience, emotional safety, and practical tools. My sessions offer a calm, structured space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with your strengths so you can move forward with clarity, confidence, and hope.
What To Expect in Sessions
Talking Therapy
I blend structured talking therapy with guided relaxation and hypnosis. Sessions include simple explanations of how the brain works, giving you practical insight into why we experience stress, anxiety, or low mood, and what can be done to change those patterns.
Hypnosis
Hypnosis creates a calm, focused state that makes it easier to reinforce positive frameworks, reduce self limiting beliefs, and embed new ways of thinking.
Transformation
This is your space to think differently, feel lighter, and create lasting change from the inside out. Clients often arrive with challenges such as anxiety, stress, sleep, or confidence, and leave having unlocked progress across multiple areas of life. That is the power of forward-focused change: it opens doors we didn’t know were closed.
Online Therapy
I am available online, via Zoom, so you can access it from home, work, or wherever feels right. No travel, no fuss, just a calm, focused space to pause and move forward.
Online doesn’t mean less effective. Think of it like switching to wireless, the connection is still strong, just more flexible. You’ll be guided through each session with clarity and care, in a way that fits your life and your goals.
