About me
Hi and thanks for taking a moment to check out my profile.
I've been a hypnotherapist running my own private practice for nearly 25 years. I do face-to-face therapy sessions at The Green Room, located in the town of Stowmarket in Suffolk and I also do online hypnotherapy sessions.
When hypnotherapy cured my 10-year problem in only 2 sessions I knew I had to train and help other people. I'd found my calling in life. (Read the full story in my FREE ebook, available on my website).
If you want to experience the same life-changing therapy hit the purple button above (or call/email me) and book a FREE introductory call.
These are some of the problems I can help you with:
- Anxiety, panic attacks, and PTSD (including sexual abuse trauma, flashbacks, nightmares etc.)
- Stress, burnout and feelings of overwhelm
- Addiction problems: smoking, alcohol, drugs, gambling, porn, screen addiction etc.
- Sex and/or relationship issues including erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and anorgasmia
- Low confidence and self-esteem issues
- Depression, low mood and loss of meaning in life
- OCD and intrusive thoughts/memories
- Fears and phobias
- IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome)
- Sleep problems
- Loss, grief and bereavement
But it's not just problems I deal with...
Do you want to improve your performance in business, sport, education or the performing arts? What about tests and exams?
Hypnosis can be used to help you unlock your potential, boost your confidence, and get the results you're looking for.
And what about creating more meaning and purpose in your life and a connection to something beyond yourself?
My spiritual hypnotherapy sessions aim to work on a much deeper level than mind-body problems. This is where you can access your True Self, live more authentically, and connect up to a bigger consciousness. Instead of operating on old conditioning, your soul takes centre stage. Life begins to flow and has much more meaning. Enchantment and a sense of wonder return to your life.
As you can see, therapy with me is not just about solving problems. It's far more than that. It's about helping you unlock your potential and reconnect to the real you - and then something beyond yourself.
4 ways to work with me...
You have 4 choices for therapy sessions with me...
- In-person hypnotherapy at the Green Room in Stowmarket, Suffolk
- Online hypnotherapy (ideal if you're some distance away from me or prefer working online; I work with people from all over the world*)
- Telephone psychotherapy/counselling/coaching (30 minute sessions that are perfect if you're not comfortable looking at yourself on a screen or you just want a quick 'booster')
- Outdoor therapy (walk and talk therapy and deep immersions in nature in a variety of locations in Suffolk and Essex)
*Just to note that my public liability insurance doesn't allow me to work online with people from the USA or Canada. Sorry!
Just before you contact me you might like to know a little about my background...
I worked for Suffolk Social Services until my early thirties then decided on a career change after hypnotherapy resolved my ten-year problem.
I was initially trained by the Midlands Institute of Hypnotherapy in 2001, gaining diplomas in Professional Hypnotherapy, Hypno-analysis and Regression and then set up my Practice in 2002.
I then furthered my training with SACH (School of Analytical and Cognitive Hypnotherapy) at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford from 2004 until 2007 and have since continued my professional development, most notably with the Human Givens Institute and Uncommon Knowledge.
I am also a qualified hypnotherapy supervisor. (If you're a therapist and are looking for a supervisor please email me for information).
I see the work I do not only as hypnotherapy but as 'psychological mentoring' or what might be called 'mind-coaching' where you'll learn about your own psychology and how to change it for the better.
I have been in constant practice for almost 25 years and am a senior member of the GHR (General Hypnotherapy Register), which is the largest hypnotherapy register of practitioners in the UK http://www.general-hypnotherapy-register.com/
If you have any questions or would like to book your Free Discovery Session call 07921 331707, email me, or hit the purple button at the top of this page.

Further information
Below is just a sample of some of the many testimonials that people have sent me over the years. There are many more on my website.
WEIGHT LOSS
"I just wanted to say that the work I have done with Gavin has changed my life. I feel free for the first time and really positive. I came for help with weight loss but found my problem was deeper in the past. I have now lost over 4 stone and its thanks to your hypnotherapy I am where I am today." S.L. Stowmarket
OCD, ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION
“Before I came to see Gavin most of my time was spent checking things, from spiders in my bedroom, the oven being turned off to doors being locked, in the belief that if I did this checking, nothing bad would happen to me or my family. I had suffered with OCD for more than 20 years and the best decision I made was to come to see Gavin. I feel like a new woman!
"I was suffering with depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. I heard about hypnotherapy and decided to give it a try. Gavin made me feel completely at ease and after several sessions (5) I feel back in control of my life. Many thanks." N.H. Stowmarket
FEARS
"A huge thankyou to Gavin for his professional help and support; after just a few hypnosis sessions my perspective on life is now very positive and rewarding; the fears and anxieties are in the past, enabling me to enjoy life with enthusiasm." S.G. Stowmarket
Maybe your story will be on here in the future? I wonder what you would say?
