Hypnosis is a completely natural state of focused attention and relaxation. You remain fully aware and in control, but your subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions. This makes it easier to release old patterns and create new, healthier ones.
Hypnosis isn’t about being “under” or giving up control. In fact, it’s the opposite — it’s a state of focused awareness that you naturally drift into every day. Ever driven somewhere and suddenly realised you don’t remember the last few turns? Or been so absorbed in a book, movie, or daydream that time slipped away? That’s a form of trance. In hypnosis, we use that natural state purposefully and safely to create change.
It feels completely normal. You’ll simply sit in a chair with your eyes closed, listening, while your mind becomes more receptive to healing and growth.
Here’s the key: hypnosis is not something I do to you — it’s something we do together. You don’t need to “try hard” or force anything. If I say, “See yourself walking on a pathway,” you might imagine it clearly, or you might just sense it, or even just think the words to yourself. That’s enough. Your subconscious responds to intention and gentle participation, not perfection.
You don’t have to “feel hypnotised” for it to work. Some people feel deeply relaxed, others feel simply calm and still, and some remain fully alert. All are valid.
Neuroscience even confirms this: MRI studies show that during hypnosis, the analytical part of the brain (frontal lobe) quiets, allowing the emotional and intuitive brain (limbic system) to step forward. This makes learning deeper and change easier.
Think of hypnosis like planting seeds: my words are the seeds, and your imagination is the soil. When you engage with suggestions, even lightly, those seeds grow into new patterns. Over time — with reinforcement, recordings, and practice — those changes become part of you.
This work isn’t about tricks or theatrics. It’s about helping your mind rehearse and install new patterns in a safe, natural, and effective way.
Yes. Most people can be hypnotized as long as they are open and willing to participate.
Hypnosis is a collaborative process — it’s not something done to you, but something we do together. As long as you’re willing to use your natural abilities of intelligence, imagination, and focus, you can experience hypnosis.
It’s less about “going under” and more about engaging your mind in a new way. The more open you are to the process, the more effective it becomes.
My role is to guide you safely, and your role is to engage with the suggestions. When both work together, hypnosis becomes a powerful tool for transformation.
I’m here to help you tap into your own inner greatness, so change feels natural, empowering, and lasting.
No. You never lose control during hypnosis — you remain aware and can choose to stop at any time.
Hypnosis is a guided state of focused awareness and relaxation. At every moment, you are in charge. You can hear everything I say, and you can accept or reject any suggestion. If you wished, you could open your eyes and end the session at any point.
The experience is designed to feel safe, calm, and empowering. My role is to guide and support you, but you decide how far to go and how deeply to engage.
Far from taking away control, hypnosis actually gives you back control over habits, thoughts, and emotions that may have felt overwhelming before.
Most clients experience meaningful change within 3–4 sessions, though some notice breakthroughs sooner and others benefit from longer-term support.
The number of sessions depends on you, your goals, and the depth of the issue. Some people feel lighter and more in control after just one or two sessions. For many, three to four sessions create a strong foundation for lasting transformation.
Ask yourself:
How long has this issue been shaping my life?
How much control do I feel I currently have over it?
The deeper and longer-lasting the pattern, the more support your mind may need to fully release it.
Remember, transformation isn’t about speed — it’s about depth and stability. With readiness, openness, and commitment, change can happen more quickly than you might expect.
Hypnosis is highly effective for releasing unhelpful habits, reducing stress and anxiety, improving sleep, overcoming fears, and supporting emotional and spiritual healing.
Hypnosis can be applied to many areas of life, including:
Breaking habits and addictions – smoking, vaping, alcohol, gambling, or unhealthy food patterns.
Calming the mind and emotions – easing stress, anxiety, overthinking, and emotional triggers.
Restoring balance – improving sleep, focus, and overall well-being.
Overcoming fears and phobias – from public speaking to flying and beyond.
Emotional healing and self-worth – releasing guilt, shame, grief, or past imprints that hold you back.
Spiritual alignment – supporting past life regression, interlife journeys, and deeper connection to inner wisdom.
Because hypnosis works with the subconscious — the part of your mind that runs patterns and habits — it can create real, lasting change in almost any area where you feel stuck or limited.
The Superconscious is your higher intelligence — the part of you that sees the bigger picture and knows how to heal, realign, and restore balance at the deepest levels.
The Superconscious is sometimes described as the higher self, the wise, guiding intelligence beyond the conscious and subconscious minds. It holds the blueprint for your well-being and potential.
In hypnosis, we create a connection to this Superconscious field and invite it to:
Clear blocks, patterns, and unresolved imprints.
Find and implement solutions that the conscious mind cannot access.
Realign you with your highest potential and truth.
Integrate positive change across all levels — physical, emotional, mental, energetic, and spiritual.
This process is gentle yet profound. Clients often describe it as feeling deeply supported and guided, as if something greater is working with them.
The best part is, you don’t have to know how it works — you only need to be open. The Superconscious does the healing and integration in a way that is safe, intelligent, and perfectly tailored to you.
Energy work balances and realigns your body’s natural energy systems, helping to clear blocks, restore vitality, and support deep emotional and physical healing.
Energy work is about tuning into the body’s subtle energy fields and systems. When these are balanced, you feel clearer, calmer, and more resilient. When they’re blocked or stagnant, you may feel stuck, heavy, or drained.
In sessions, energy work can help you:
Clear blocks and stagnant energy that weigh you down.
Stabilise and realign your energetic systems for clarity and vitality.
Enhance emotional and physical well-being by supporting natural flow and balance.
Activate dormant healing systems such as chakras, meridians, pyramid centres, and the human energy field.
Expand consciousness and inner wisdom, helping you tap into your full potential.
I use a blend of approaches — including Activator Healing, frequency medicine, sacred geometry, and ancient techniques — always adapted to your comfort level.
This work supports you on every level — physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual — so that you can experience profound healing, stability, and a renewed sense of purpose.
Discovery sessions last about 30–40 minutes. Full hypnosis sessions are usually about 60 minutes, sometimes up to 90 depending on the work we’re doing.
Discovery Session: Around 30–40 minutes. This is where we get to know each other, explore your goals, and decide if working together feels like the right fit.
First Hypnotherapy Session: Usually 60 minutes, though occasionally up to 90 minutes depending on the depth of the work.
Subsequent Sessions: Typically 45–60 minutes.
Children’s Sessions: 30–50 minutes depending on age, attention span, and needs.
Taster / Self-Hypnosis Sessions: Around 60 minutes.
Please note: these are approximations. Every client is different, and I give the time needed to complete the work without rushing.
✨ Tip: Please be punctual, as there’s no waiting room available. If you need to leave at a certain time, let me know in advance so we can adjust.
Your first session is a Discovery Session — a relaxed conversation where we get to know each other, explore your goals, and see if working together feels right.
The Discovery Session (about 30–40 minutes) is our starting point. It’s not a hypnosis session, but rather:
A chance for me to understand your situation, goals, and what you’d like to achieve.
A space for you to ask me questions and feel comfortable with the process.
An opportunity to decide together if we’re a good fit before moving forward.
Only after this session do we begin the deeper work. This ensures the approach is tailored to you and that you feel safe, heard, and supported.
I don’t work with anyone until after we’ve completed the Discovery Session, because it sets the foundation for a successful and transformative experience.
Yes. Both hypnosis and energy work are safe, natural processes that support healing and positive change. You remain fully aware and in control at all times.
Hypnosis: It’s a natural state of focused attention and relaxation — something you drift in and out of every day (like when you’re driving and miss a turn, or get absorbed in a book). In sessions, you remain in charge the entire time. You can open your eyes, speak, or stop at any point. Hypnosis simply helps your subconscious mind become more receptive to positive change.
Energy Work: These methods are gentle, non-invasive, and designed to restore balance and flow in your natural energy systems. Clients often describe the experience as calming, grounding, or deeply relaxing.
Neither hypnosis nor energy work involve surrendering control — instead, they are tools that empower you to release what no longer serves you and align more fully with your own potential.
Yes. I offer hypnosis and energy work sessions online, and they are just as effective as in-person sessions.
Online sessions give you the same benefits as working with me face-to-face, but with the comfort and convenience of your own space. Many clients prefer this option because it:
Saves travel time.
Allows you to create a relaxing environment at home.
Makes it possible to work together from anywhere in the world.
The process is simple: you’ll need a quiet, private space, a stable internet connection, and headphones if possible. From there, I guide you through the session exactly as I would in person.
Clients often find online work surprisingly powerful, because they’re already in a familiar environment where they feel safe and at ease.

No. Refunds aren’t offered, as each session involves preparation, energy alignment, and time dedicated specifically to you.
Once a session is booked, I begin preparing for it — tuning into your needs, planning the approach, and aligning energy to give you the best possible outcome. That time and energy are fully committed to you, whether or not you attend.
For this reason, sessions are non-refundable. However, if you need to reschedule, you can do so (with 48 hours’ notice) using the link in your confirmation email.
This policy helps me maintain clear boundaries and ensure that every client receives the preparation and commitment they deserve.
❓ How should I prepare for a session?
Come as you are — clean, comfortable clothing, a clear mind, and an open attitude are all you need.
Preparation is simple, but a few things can help you get the most out of your session:
Clothing: Wear clean, comfortable clothes so you can relax easily.
Mindset: Arrive with an open mind and a willingness to engage in the process.
Lifestyle: Avoid alcohol or recreational drugs beforehand; being clear and present supports the work.
Hydration: Drink some water before you come — being hydrated helps your body process shifts more smoothly.
Intention: Spend a moment reflecting on what you’d like to get out of the session. Even a simple intention helps direct your subconscious.
If you have a specific time you need to leave by, please let me know at the beginning so we can manage the session flow.
No one can guarantee results, because every person’s mind and journey are unique. What I can guarantee is that I’ll bring my full commitment, skill, and care to support your transformation.
While hypnosis and energy work are powerful, lasting change ultimately depends on your openness, readiness, and commitment. Some clients experience profound shifts very quickly, while for others the changes unfold gradually, layer by layer.
Here’s what I can promise:
I’ll create a safe, supportive space for you to explore change.
I’ll use proven techniques and tailor every session to your needs.
I’ll give you tools and strategies to continue reinforcing the changes between sessions.
Think of it like planting a seed: the right conditions allow it to grow, but each seed takes its own time to flourish. Your willingness to engage and nurture the process is what makes the difference.
So while I cannot guarantee specific outcomes, I can assure you that everything I do is focused on giving you the very best chance of success.
