About me

Hello, I’m Steve Thoreau-Leigh, a fully qualified and experienced Clinical Hypnotherapist.

I specialise in anxiety & stress, phobias, quitting smoking, weight loss and self-esteem/confidence issues. 

In therapy one size doesn’t fit all. It’s about working with you, addressing your issues, reinforcing the changes and enabling you to get on with your life quickly.

This is where I can help, using a range of hypnotherapy techniques. Centred on you, the client.

Together, we’ll create lasting change, to become a happier, healthier and best-placed version of you.

"Thank you Steve for helping me overcome a debilitating phobia that I've suffered with for many years within such a short space of time. The past couple of months since, have been life-changing! Can't thank you enough" - David

How I can help you

I support a wide range of issues:

  • Anxiety and Stress
  • Fears or Phobias (including the Fear of Flying)
  • Weight Loss
  • Stop Smoking
  • Low Self-Esteem /  Confidence Building
  • Exam Nerves, Public Speaking.
  • Child Hypnotherapy

As well as IBS and Psoriasis. All through the power of hypnosis.

Choosing a hypnotherapist

I understand choosing a therapist is a very personal decision, and finding someone who is a good fit, is vital. Many of my clients are completely new to hypnotherapy yet they're surprised how relaxed they can feel during a session, and after:

"It was my first experience of hypnotherapy and I was completely blown away by how it made me feel! Steve explained what would happen in detail and answered any questions. He was very reassuring and knowledgeable" Georgina

I offer a complimentary session over the phone, this is where we can have a chat, and discuss how hypnotherapy could help you. And of course I can answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Take advantage of this no obligation free session today. I look forward to helping you achieve your goals.

Testimonials

Quit Smoking

I am so pleased I found Steve, and wished I had considered hypnotherapy earlier. I am proud to say I am now a non-smoker, after visiting Steve for Quit Smoking Hypnosis.  Extremely professional and down to earth chap, and I would highly recommend. Thank you, so much. I not only feel so much healthier in myself but you are also saving me a small fortune! - Dan

Stress & Anxiety

I can’t thank Steve enough, after a few sessions I feel like a totally different person. I would highly recommend. Thank you so much 🙂 - Sandy

Fear & Phobias

Thank you Steve for helping me overcome a debilitating phobia that I’ve suffered with for many years within such a short space of time. The past couple of months since have been life changing! Can’t thank you enough. - David 

Weight Loss

As someone who has suffered with problems with my weight for the last 20 years, I was so delighted to find Steve, who has helped me approach my weight loss in a sensible and considered manner. Steve’ calm and professional approach immediately put me at my ease and I found the eating plan he advised me to follow easy and achievable. I found the hypnotherapy sessions relaxing and greatly beneficial, they have helped me so much with motivation and self belief. I have no hesitation in throughly recommending Steve if you are considering trying hypnotherapy. - Julia
