About me
Cognitive Hypnotherapy for Anxiety, Self-Doubt, Confidence, and more.
Do you feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, self-doubt, or anxiety that hold you back from living the life you know you're capable of? You're not broken, and you don't need fixing, but you do deserve to feel confident, clear, and in control of your future.
I'm Joanna, a Cognitive Hypnotherapist specialising in helping women break free from the patterns that keep them hidden and small.
Using a powerful blend of Hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT, and Positive Psychology, I work with your subconscious mind - the part of you that controls 90% of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours – to uncover and transform the hidden blocks that fuel self-doubt and fear.
My approach is rooted in compassion and understanding - every behaviour has a positive intention, even when it's causing you pain. Together, we'll explore what shaped these patterns and gently reshape them, so you can step into confidence, trust yourself deeply, and thrive in every area of your life.
I work with women and non-binary folk online and in-person in Clifton, Bristol, UK.
What is Cognitive Hypnotherapy?
So much of how you feel, decide, and respond is happening without you even realising it - shaped by patterns and processes outside your conscious awareness. Meaning you can get stuck in behaviours and beliefs that aren't helping you in your life, without ever seeing what's driving them.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy gives you access to your subconscious mind, where those patterns live, so you can reframe the root cause and create lasting change that actually sticks.
Using trance states, we tap into the subconscious to identify and let go of the underlying causes behind challenging thoughts or reactions. This opens the door to deep transformation.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy uses your brain’s adaptability to facilitate profound personal growth. By reshaping anything disempowering in your mind, you can begin to create more positive thoughts and a more fulfilling life.

Client Testimonials
"I came to see Jo struggling with things that had been holding me back for years. I was unsure about hypnotherapy at first, but from the first session, I felt heard and safe. Jo holds a space in such a gentle and kind way that it allowed me to drop down into my vulnerability with such ease (which is not usually so easy for me). The process was deeply relaxing and surprisingly really empowering.Over our sessions, I noticed real shifts. My internal critical voice has quieted down significantly, and I'm finally taking steps toward goals I'd been putting off. I feel like I've been given tools to work through what was keeping me stuck. I'm so grateful for the supportive, judgment-free environment Jo cultivates. If you're on the fence about trying hypnotherapy, I'd absolutely encourage you to give it a chance."
"I had 6 sessions with Jo and the transformation was just phenomenal. I really loved her guidance, pace and patience ways. Would definitely recommend her if you are feeling stuck and in a rut."
"I had a really powerful and helpful experience working with Jo’s hypnotherapy. As someone new to hypnotherapy, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Jo made me feel well-informed and completely at ease throughout the process. She created a safe and supportive space where I felt comfortable exploring my thoughts and emotions. I had been working through anxiety, and Jo helped me uncover the root cause with clarity and compassion. She provided me with valuable tools and techniques that made it easier to reframe my thoughts in a practical and effective way. The session left me feeling lighter, more grounded, and equipped with new perspectives to navigate challenges. I’m incredibly grateful for Jo’s guidance and highly recommend her to anyone looking for deep and lasting transformation."
