About me
Hi, I’m Gillian Forrester and I offer a professional, solution focused approach to therapy.
I provide individual treatments to help my clients utilise the vast resources within them to create a happy and fulfilling life. We will help you focus your mind on what you want to achieve (the solution) more than on the issues or their causes. My approach focuses on the future and not on the past, creating a picture of positive actions and outcomes, letting your subconscious mind determine how to get there.
Clients issues often cover everything from anxiety and stress to phobias and addictions. Maybe your looking for help with pain relief or weight management but rest assured that all information is treated as completely confidential. Treatment is tailored to the individual so your needs are met.
Both initial consultations and sessions can also be conducted by Skype or Zoom so there is no need to leave the comfort of your home. I offer a free initial consultation which lasts between half an hour and one hour. Call or email so we can start the discussion on how hypnotherapy can help you.
