About me
Cognitive Hypnotherapy & Inner Child Therapy London, UK and Worldwide
Do Any of The Following Resonate With You?
- you're feeling lost in life and don’t know where to turn
- you struggle with feelings of low self-worth or being undervalued
- you feel stuck in the past and haunted by negative memories and experiences
- you beat yourself up regularly for things you say or do
- you've turned to alcohol, binge eating or drugs to try and cope
If you relate to one or more of these statements, Cognitive Hypnotherapy & Inner Child Therapy can help you let go and find your true self again.
What is Cognitive Hypnotherapy?
Cognitive Hypnotherapy is a modern approach to hypnosis which helps you change negative subconscious beliefs, by accessing your memories and experiences and retraining your physical and mental responses to them.
This process has been shown to literally rewire your neural networks in your brain, and essentially un-hypnotises you from negative beliefs you have formed about yourself and the world you live in.
What some talking therapies can take years to achieve, Cognitive Hypnotherapy can do in a few weeks to months, without all the endless talking and reliving of the past.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy has been shown to create more lasting change than other forms of Hypnotherapy, because we work WITH your subconscious to find it's own solutions, rather than just relying on the theory of suggestion as in traditional forms of hypnosis.
Cognitive Hypnotherapy and Inner Child Therapy Can Help You if:
You feel stuck and unable to free yourself from troubling emotions, anxiety, shame or traumatic memories.
You've been struggling with negative patterns of thinking, behaviour, addictions or feelings of low self-worth for some time and can’t find a way to move forward.
You suffer from panic attacks, fear of rejection, failure, intimacy or abandonment, or you avoid certain situations in order to feel safe.
Who am I?
I'm Rowenna Clifford, and I help people like you in London and worldwide online, to overcome personal, mental and emotional challenges using Cognitive Hypnotherapy, NLP Coaching and IEMT.
I work with people on all kinds of problems, and as someone who has experienced hitting rock bottom in the past, I understand how debilitating and all-encompassing it can feel to be at your lowest ebb. But, I also know that it is completely possible to turn things around, and that if I can make a full recovery then so can you.
Growing up surrounded by alcohol and drug abuse, I struggled with deep shame and social anxiety which crippled me into my adult years and held me back from achieving the success I wanted in life.
That was 15 years ago, and fuelled by the realisation that I could change filled me with the desire to help others do the same and has lead me to train with some of the world's best teachers in the field of transformative therapies. It has become my life’s mission to support others on their journey and towards a life of mental and emotional freedom.

How I Work
Together we'll explore the root causes of your experiences and what you want to achieve. During each session, I'll guide you to access the parts of you that carry painful beliefs and emotional wounds, and help you heal them through therapeutic processing and transformative change work.
We might explore inner child work and reparenting the parts of you that were shaped by attachment injuries and trauma.
The techniques we use will be guided by what we uncover that needs working through. This might be guided visualisation to reach inner child parts, explore and reprocess memories or abstract symbolic parts of your psyche. Or we may use some EMDR style processing, Gestalt discussion work, NLP techniques, EFT tapping or other techniques from the models I am trained in.
Sessions can also be used for therapeutic coaching using the NLP frameworks I am qualified in.
Free Telephone Consultation
I offer a free 30 min consultation over the telephone so that we can get a feel of how we will work together and answer any questions you might have.
***** REVIEWS *****
What Some of My Clients Say (please visit my Google reviews page to see more):
"Rowenna is fantastic. She really listens and gets to know you. I've had some poor experiences on the NHS (both with talk therapy and CBT) and was ready to try something different which led me to her Cognitive Hypnotherapy. I only needed 3 sessions to get out of the rut I kept finding myself in. I highly recommend her". ~ Ashley, Social Media Consultant
------------------------------------------------------
"I had a course of Hypnotherapy with Rowenna recently, to support me through a period of change, and found it to be really effective. The recordings are great to continue listening to as well, as you can go back to them, to ensure it embeds in. I was pleasantly surprised at how much Rowenna had picked up from our initial discovery session which she then used in the following sessions/ recordings. I also found her really engaging from the first inquiry phone call, she explained her practice in a way that gave me the confidence that she understood my situation and could help. Will definitely continue to use her services". ~ Monique, Senior Project Manager
------------------------------------------------------
"I’ve been visiting Rowenna for a few months now and can honestly say that after trying other types of therapy, cognitive hypnotherapy with Rowenna has helped me enormously. I was a bit sceptical at first, partly due to my previous experiences with therapy, but I went in with an open mind and noticed a possitive change after my first session, which became more and more obvious over the next few weeks and months. I feel so much more relaxed and confident and it feels so natural to feel like this now. Rowenna is extremely good at what she does and can identify what it is that will help you after your first discussion. She’s really knowledgable in her field and has given me a good understanding of how cognitive hypnotherapy works. She also takes the time to create personalised recordings for you, which I listen to once or twice a day between sessions. Rowenna is understanding, knowledgable and very calming, and I really can’t recommend her enough". ~ Tom, Manufacturing and Sales CEO
------------------------------------------------------
"I have been working with Rowenna to explore and address my anxiety issues which followed a cancer diagnosis in 2018 and subsequent treatment which has just ended ( Feb 2019). I was dealing well with the physical aspects of my treatment but psychologically and emotionally it was a different matter. The opportunity to work with Rowenna came at exactly the right point and several sessions in I’m delighted to say that I’m feeling calmer and more focussed on my recovery post treatment. The therapy approach was new to me and I have found myself more engaged in the process than others I have tried. Rowenna took time initially to explain the approach, the process and my role in it and this has worked very well for me as I have remained engaged throughout. I enjoy the sessions as I feel that I’m really contributing to them but more importantly that I’m getting a great deal back. The sessions are followed up with audio recordings which are a really helpful recap of the session that I use to repeat the learning. Rowenna has a great approach, she is very calm and reassuring and I never feel that I’m being rushed". ~ Garry, Senior NHS Worker
------------------------------------------------------
"Rowenna helped me pinpoint the issues I wanted help with. We covered a lot of territory during the sessions and I found her great at picking up on the bits which were relevant to my problem that we could work with, even with my crazy disjointed rambling. She has a very calm non-judgemental manner which instantly puts you at ease. I now have personalised recordings to listen to and she has taught me some other tools to use in certain situations. We worked on my anxiety over public speaking, which was affecting my confidence with presentations at work. Although I haven’t actually done public speaking yet, I felt much more confident preparing the presentation. The anxiety I would have usually felt just emailing the research to my supervisor was absent and I feel calm when I think about standing talking in front of my peers. I would definitely recommend Rowenna for Cognitive Hypnotherapy". ~ Nikki, Natural Health Practitioner
------------------------------------------------------
"Rowenna is extremely professional in her approach and always gives really clear explanations about the methods she is about to use in each session. She is also very non judgemental about any issues that have come up during the sessions and therefore really easy to talk to. I approached Rowenna as I was suffering from anxiety in certain work situations and social situations, since attending the sessions the anxiety has decreased and I feel far more confident and able to enjoy my time at work and socially without worrying. I also had an issue with caffeine addiction and since attending the sessions my caffeine intake has decreased and I am on the way to giving it up completely". ~ Louise, Music Producer
