Discover the combined Powerful results of Psychotherapy and Strategic Hypnotherapy in overcoming Social Anxiety forever.
If you are suffering from social anxiety or low self-esteem, I can help you to find a better way of being. I will help you create a life where you feel at ease and confident in yourself. Together we will habituate the skills you need to liberate yourself from the grip of self-doubt and second guessing yourself, and towards living your full potential. Many people feel that this is impossible for them to do. However, change is a process.
Understanding how Social Anxiety works
Somewhere along your life journey you unconsciously connected with some limiting personal beliefs. Perhaps you believe yourself to be “naturally shy,” or that you’re an introvert. These views may be true at present, and yet change is possible. It’s simply a process.
Experience a Life Transformed
Remember that the current version of you has no idea what the future version of you is capable of. My focus is to skilfully guide you on your journey towards personal transformation. I will give you the skills necessary for you to overcome your fears, build a sense of control, and embrace life’s opportunities.
Why and how I can help you
We combine strategic hypnotherapy techniques with clinically proven psychotherapy, which operate together to produce powerful changes. On the very first session, we will gently delve into some of the possible origins of your particular issues, and from there I will discuss with you the tools that you can use to shatter self-limiting beliefs, and replace them with realistic, balanced thoughts that promote a sense of personal power.

-
Learn the benefits of Self-Compassion
-
Learn and develop healthy personal boundaries, and let go of any anxiety around conflict with others
On the first session:
You may choose to approach this problem utilizing a pure discussion-based therapy style. Various solutions will be discussed and a formulation created. A formulation is a structured approach used to understand, prioritise, and address your issues using cognitive-behavioural techniques that promote positive change, such as problem-solving, thought restructuring, and easy to follow mindfulness practices. Any approach undertaken will be done with your thorough understanding and agreement. All of this simply boils down to getting the right skills tailored to your needs. If you choose, then hypnotherapy can be employed to facilitate your successful outcome. At this point the number of sessions required will be agreed upon, and the first hypnotherapy session will be conducted (If you are agreeable). Consistent, reliable and long-lasting results are usually achieved within 4-6 sessions. With your permission, each session will be recorded and you will be given a copy to play at a regular time each day between sessions. This is necessary in order to move the new information from “new” to “known.”
