Unlocking positive change in children’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviours is what hypnotherapy is all about. Here is how I do it:

Step 1: Pinpoint the Issue

I start by identifying the problem.

Step 2: Introduce New Behaviours

Then, I work together to establish healthier behaviours.

Step 3: Make it Stick.

Finally, I ensure these new behaviours become second nature.

At the clinic, I specialize in paediatric hypnotherapy, offering swift and effective treatment with minimal waiting times. Most concerns are addressed within just a few sessions. Reach out for a friendly chat or to schedule an appointment. Let us support your child together.

How I Work with Children

When working with children, I keep things simple. I do not always delve into the intricacies of hypnosis; instead, I frame it as a time for relaxation and imagination. It is crucial that the child is willing to address the issue themselves.

During sessions, I may introduce positive affirmations, tailored to the child's needs, such as relaxation techniques, confidence-building exercises, or memory enhancement methods. Children are highly receptive to these approaches.

Throughout the process, a parent or guardian is present, ensuring comfort and support. I understand that parental anxiety can affect a child's progress, so I collaborate closely with parents to alleviate concerns.

Understanding Children's Struggles

Children grapple with a myriad of challenges—change, bullying, low self-esteem, and more. These difficulties manifest in several ways, from academic decline to physical symptoms like headaches or bedwetting.

My approach taps into the natural creativity and curiosity of children. I use stories, games, and familiar characters to engage them effectively.

Partnering with Parents

Collaboration with parents is key. I kick off with a session involving the child, parent(s), and therapist to build trust and outline my approach. I ensure everyone understands the process and is committed to the journey ahead.

After each session, I provide parents with a summary and guidance on supporting their child’s progress.

At my clinic, your child’s well-being is my priority.
