​For over 10 years I’ve been studying the realm of consciousness; learning how the brain and body work together, and how the subtle aspects of our experience — such as inner dialogue, gut feelings, somatic sensation, intuition, imagination, dreams, and the field we exist within — all play an integral role in our wellbeing.
​​
Hypnotherapy proves effective because it provides you with the opportunity to tap into and directly influence the subconscious to generate positive change.
My work is to help you use your own subconscious as a reference point for navigating your inner and outer worlds.​
Together, we create an atmosphere which allows you to relax, settle into yourself, acknowledge where you are, and attune to the messages emerging from within, awaiting your attention.
​
Our perceptions are the key, and your subconscious already knows the way.
In hypnosis, we can address it directly. ​
​
Here's how:

Limbic Brain
In hypnosis we activate the part of the brain in control of our automatic responses (the Limbic brain) — it's intuitive, emotional, visual and instinctual. It speaks in images, symbols and sensation. This part of the brain processes information in a non-linear way — more like everything, everywhere all at once.
This is a different processing centre to the neo-cortex — at the front of brain — which governs language, logic, sequence, and analytics. This area of the brain is most active when you're conscious and going about your day, repeating thought and speech patterns, day to day routines, and calculating situations with strategy based on what's been successful/kept you safe in the past.
​​​
The operational differences of these processing centres is why it's often difficult to talk your way into feeling better, or why you can understand certain situations logically, but still have strong automatic emotional/physical reactions – they're entirely different processing centres of the brain.
​
Hypnotherapy works directly with the Limbic brain with experiential processes. We practice visualisation, imagination and interoception (sensing what you feel inside) so you can open your perceptions beyond regular thought patterns, illuminating details from within which are most relevant to you.

Body psychotherapy
The body keeps the score
​
If you've read the work of Dr Gabor Maté or Dr Bessel Van Der Kolk, you'll come to understand that the body keeps track of every experience you've ever had. This data is stored in your subconscious, distributed throughout the body.
​
In hypnosis, we can follow the messages coming directly from your body. tending to held energy and opening energy flow within.
​
When we think about the 'positions we how' it translates mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually — in hypnosis we can address all aspects.​
Creating environments from within, beyond the limitations of physical matter and current conditions, allows you to see new angles and alternate routes.
Imagination, used intentionally, allows us to prepare the subconscious mind/body to explore preferences and meet to the conditions in advance, helping to bridge the gap between where/how you are now, and where/how you'd like to exist.
By immersing yourself in these novel experiences, new neural processes can form. Everything in this physical reality began as an idea — a concept within the mind before it materialised. Hypnosis enables us to access this aspect of our creative energy and begin directing it to the essence of your ideal.

Mind is the builder — the physical is the result.
