About me
Seeking help.
If you're reading this, you may have started to question the ways you manage life and your reactions to it. Perhaps you are struggling with a specific issue, or just have a general sense that things aren't working as well as they could. Maybe you already know that more is possible, that there must be a better way to live, but don't quite know where to start.
Using hypnotherapy to help you explore the underlying emotions and beliefs that cause those strong reactions to challenges is a powerful first step. By working with your inner world and getting to know how your thoughts and beliefs inform your choices, and exploring what you really want out of life, you can truly be empowered to shape your life in the way you really want.
A unique approach to Hypnotherapy
I practise ‘progressive therapeutic hypnotherapy‘. This is a blended programme of counselling-style sessions and classic hypnotherapy. Initially I will ask you specific questions about your situation, identifying underlying patterns at a deeper level, and offering insights and encouragement to help you gain new perspectives on your situation.
This will be followed by a series of hypnotherapy sessions where you will approach the same issue from the somatic and emotional perspectives, exploring past experiences that may have contributed to your difficulties. These build on one another to provide maximum impact and change in the ways you manage life challenges.
The entire programme emphasises self-compassion, self-care, and uncovering and restructuring negative emotions and beliefs that have been holding you back. By using the powerful gift of the unconscious mind, which contains answers beyond your rational abilities, you can start to make choices that positively impact your life.

What next?
If you want to find out if hypnotherapy is right for you, just call me on 07581 224539 or email me at innerjoy@emmareedhypnotherapy.uk and I will offer you an appointment. In your first session we will discuss your situation further, explore what you specifically need, and I will offer an initial plan for you to think about. If you choose to go ahead, you will be asked to commit to the full programme to achieve the gently transformative power of hypnotherapy.
Accept yourself. Appreciate yourself. Take care of yourself.

Further information
I also specialise in these areas.
Dealing with transition:
Our roles change throughout our lives, but it is not always easy to adjust to the new expectations each stage brings. Whether you need help to cope with the limitations of a new family or sick relative, or with the daunting freedom of retirement or children leaving home, using hypnotherapy will offer you the chance to experience insights and new perspectives on what it is you really want. When you really get certain on your own needs, decisions and abilities, you are empowered to make a difference for your future well-being.
Stress and Anxiety:
We live in a culture of continual pressure and worry. Many people simply do not realise how much tension they are carrying around both physically and mentally, and never get any respite. Hypnotherapy can help to switch off the fight-or-flight response, calm those physical symptoms, and rediscover a state of happiness you may not have experienced for years.
Carers:
Who cares for the carer? Hypnotherapy can be used by both individuals and groups, including carers' groups and care staff, to make self-care a top priority. By renewing your sense of satisfaction and well-being in your life, you are better able to provide those around you with all they need and more.
