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
- EasiBirthing
- Hypnotherapy for Fertility
- Weight Management

Fees
£80.00 per session
Additional information
- My fees are £80 per session for Hypnotherapy. As the nature of hypnotherapy does not lend itself well to rigid time constraints, sessions may take longer than the therapeutic hour (50mins)
I offer a reduced rate for those suffering financial hardship at my discretion.
My sessional/course rates for groups vary. Please phone or email for details.
My fees for ongoing weekly counselling sessions are £70 (50 mins).
