About me
Congratulations, you are probably reading this because you feel that some aspect of your life needs to change to make you as happy, fulfilled and in control as you would like to be.
Imagine what your life could be like without stress, if you could quit smoking, banish a phobia or reduce your anxiety ... in many cases it takes just a few sessions of hypnotherapy to make that happen.
I am an experienced, highly qualified therapist with a real interest in people and a strong drive to help them make their lives better. My approach is practical and effective, and focussed on what you want your therapy to achieve.
I am registered with the BIH as a Senior Hypnotherapy Practitioner, with the GHR as an Advanced Hypnotherapy Practitioner, and the ACCPH as a Senior Member, the highest level of membership available in all cases. I run a multi-accredited hypnotherapy school, and I am a published author on therapy topics.
I can help you with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, exam nerves, panic attacks, sleeping disorders, smoking cessation, lack of direction or motivation, generalised anxiety or worrying, PTSD, pain control, public speaking, confidence and self esteem and phobias such as a fear of flying or spiders.
I also have specialist training in working with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) - the effectiveness of using hypnotherapy with this condition is recognised by the NHS. I work with adults and children over 10.
This isn't a complete list - if the reason you're considering hypnotherapy isn't here, just contact me with a few details about your situation, and I would be happy to advise.
My clinic is close to junction 31 of the M62, so very convenient for Wakefield, Leeds, Pontefract, and Castleford. I can offer appointments on weekdays or Saturdays, so can fit around your busy life.
TRYING IT OUT
Are you unsure if hypnotherapy is right for you? Do you have questions about what's involved or worries about trance?
If so, you can book a free information session. No hypnosis takes place at these sessions, they are simply a chance for us to meet, and for you to ask whatever questions you like. You can bring a friend or relative with you, so we can decide between us if hypnotherapy is the right thing to help you.
You will not be put under any pressure to book paid therapy sessions and you are welcome to go home and think about things before making any decisions. However, if we both feel that it's right to go ahead, you would be able to book to come back on another occasion to begin therapy.
You can also download a free five minute audio from my website without needing to hand over your email or any other information about yourself. Go to http://www.debbiewaller.com/debbie-waller-audios

A WORD ABOUT CLIENT HOURS
Seeing clients is a rewarding and very important part of my working life, but if you've read my profile you'll know I also have to allow time for training and writing commitments (the next book is in the pipeline). I therefore can only offer one-to-one appointments a couple of days a week.
I am happy to take phone calls from 9 am to 9 pm on any day, but cannot offer evening appointments. If you get the answer phone, leave a message and I'll get back to you.

Please contact me for more information about this.

- Smoker's Programme £150. Couples discount available (see website for T&C).
A four step programme for smokers who want to stop. Have a look at the flyer above for more information on what's included.
- For other issues it's often difficult to predict the number of sessions you'll need without knowing something about your circumstances, so I charge on a 'per session' basis, with a fee of £65 per session. You can reduce this by paying for a block of sessions in advance.
The first session is likely to be up to two hours, after that sessions are approximately an hour each. Price remains the same regardless of the length of the session.
