Profile
Hello there. I am an experienced and qualified clinical hypnotherapist and registered hypnoanalyst and run the busy Ruislip and Rickmansworth Hypnotherapy Clinics. I have successfully treated many hundreds of people with stress and anxiety-related problems, plus phobias, weight control, confidence, social anxiety, panic attacks and my stop smoking programme produces excellent results.
My Hypnotic Gastric Band sessions are proving to be very successful as I combine it with psychological training program to help you really understand yourself and feel more in control of your eating.
I specialise in Pure Hypnoanalysis and believe it is the most effective and quickest form of hypnotherapy available today for almost all psychological, emotional and stress-related symptoms. This may sound like a grand statement, so please read my Testimonials page which is filled with genuine comments from people whose lives are happier, more relaxed and symptom-free after therapy.
A course of therapy lasts 8-10 hours on average, spaced at weekly intervals. Pure Hypnoanalysis is an amazing therapy which produces permanent results and hugely improves peoples lives.
I am also a practitioner of Changing Limiting Beliefs which is a unique and highly effective talking treatment. Working together with me, you will learn how to take control of your thoughts, feelings, emotions and worries.
Discover how to completely change the way you think and feel about yourself and challenging situations - enabling you to live a happier, more successful and positive life. It generally takes around five hours to complete, although in some cases the program can be shorter.

TESTIMONIALS
"Cara has helped me to overcome the guilt I felt in every day life. I now realise that the guilt I felt was not necessary and not normal. It is so nice to make normal rash decisions now and not feeling guilty about everything and anything. Food has always been a big issue with me and even eating a big meal I would get a sense of huge guilt come over me, feeling that I need to get it out of my body. Guilt now does not affect me and I now realise it shouldn’t. I totally recommend Cara to anyone who wants to clear unwanted emotions and just feel better about everything.
When I finished my analysis I felt the biggest weight just been lifted off my shoulders. Things that used to make me tearful and upset now just feel like a memory in my childhood. I just couldn’t stop smiling and still cant. Cara is such a special woman and she helped me so much. It is the best I have ever felt and such an amazing feeling to have in just a few weeks."
Lynne, 19, treated for guilt and issues around eating.
"When I contacted Cara, I was at yet another 'rock-bottom' in my life. I had allowed my life to spiral out of control fuelled by serious heavy drinking. I believed I had never been a confident person. I held many other negative beliefs which I now know - through hypno-analysis- were ruining my life. I was sceptical about hypno-analysis but determined to finally find out what was causing me to drink so heavily and so unhappily. On meeting Cara, I immediately felt that she was a person I could trust and work with. Near the end of my treatment, during a session, I had an experience that I still find very difficult to explain. What I do know is that all the negative feelings and beliefs I had before stopped. It was a life-changing experience for me. Although I had approached Cara for help with my drink problem, a whole host of other detritus affecting me disappeared from my outlook on life. I can’t thank Cara enough for what she did for me."
Matthew, 43, Treated for an alcohol problem
"For years I suffered facial blushing until it got so out of control I had to seek help. I am delighted to say that in Caras therapy this is exactly what I found. On completing therapy I feel like a new person. I am now confident, happy and most crucial of all I now enjoy challenging myself to enter situations I previously would have avoided. I feel like I have a new lease of life. Thank you Cara I genuinely could not have overcome this without your help, encouragement and support. :o) "
Kristina, 24, treated for blushing.
"Cara, I just wanted to say thank you for your time, determination and patience in getting me through this. My attitude has changed in the way I handle all situations and have a much calmer approach to everything. All bouts of doubt and anxiety have unbelievably been lifted.My head feels a lot lighter and less cluttered. I guess only someone else who's been through therapy with you would fully appreciate this."
Sheena, 30, treated for cannabis abuse to deal with her anxiety
