About me

Hello! I'm Helen.

I imagine you're here because your anxiety or sense of overwhelm is causing you difficulties. If you're stuck in cycles of worry, things can seem really daunting. Perhaps your racing thoughts keep you awake and you find it hard to relax. Maybe you've tried other things but they haven't brought the results you were seeking. I'd like to reassure you that I offer a package of hypnotherapy treatment that can help to quieten your mind and help you develop a deeper sense of calm.

Much like any therapy, hypnotherapy begins with us getting to know one another and me finding out exactly what I can help you with. Only then will the hypnotherapy begin.

Clinical hypnotherapy quietens and calms the mind and allows deep and lasting changes to happen. Sessions will be created to meet your goals and I will always tailor my words to your individual needs to provide the best results possible.

I want you to feel comfortable with me, so that the work is as effective as possible and I have created a welcoming and relaxing space in my office in Nelson Street, Southend, to help put you at ease, complete with cushions and blankets to help you feel cosy and warm. Some people prefer to meet remotely online, so they can continue to enjoy the feeling of relaxation or even fall asleep once the session had ended. Please let me know if that's you!

I look forward to you getting in touch so we can discuss precisely how I can help you change your life through the power of hypnotherapy.

Member organisations

GHR
The General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR)

Hypnotherapists may become members of the General Hypnotherapy Register if they satisfy certain criteria with regard to both training and ongoing requirements as determined from time to time by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC). Members are either registered at Practitioner status (which confirms that the GHR acknowledges their qualification to practice), or Affiliate status. Although Affiliate level registrants will have completed a sufficient number of training hours to equip them to commence seeing clients on a limited basis, the GHR does not acknowledge them to have yet been trained to full practitioner level. All GHR Registered Practitioners are required to accept the published Code of Ethics and Complaints & Disciplinary Procedure.

Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

Information about health conditions (*)

Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.

Other areas of hypnotherapy I deal with

Having worked with expectant and new parents for over thirty years, teaching about birth and parenthood, I am particularly well placed to support people experiencing anxiety around birth and depression following the birth of your baby. This applies to both the birthing parent and the non-birthing parent. 

Therapies offered

Fees

£60.00 per session

Additional information

I am always willing to discuss lower fees if this would make hypnotherapy more accessible for you. 

If you buy a block of 5 sessions, the total will be £250.

Further information

The sessions will usually follow the pattern of an initial discussion to see how I can help and for you to decide if you like my approach. This session is free.

We will then have a first hypnotherapy session where we talk about your goals for the work and then proceed with the hypnosis. After this, I will send you a recording to use at home.

Depending on the issue, we will then meet three or four times more to ensure your goals have been achieved, starting each session with a brief review of how you are feeling so I can make adjustments if needed.
