How hypnotherapy is different
How hypnotherapy
is different
Do you feel frustrated, trapped, or like you’ve tried everything to change a habit, only to find yourself back where you started?
Most people try to change through willpower and conscious effort alone. But many habits and patterns don’t live at the conscious level, they’re rooted in subconscious associations built up over time. That’s why understanding a problem doesn’t always translate into being able to shift it.
Hypnotherapy takes a different approach. Rather than working against habits through conscious effort, it aims to explore and address those patterns at a subconscious level, working with the mind rather than against it.
Will hypnotherapy work for you?
Most people can experience hypnosis to some degree, though individual experiences vary. Kelly uses a range of induction approaches and takes time to find what works best for each person.
Not sure if hypnotherapy is the right fit? EMDR offers a different but complementary approach, Kelly is happy to talk through which might suit your situation.
Testimonials
Posted on SarahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Kelly. She is very dedicated, passionate and knowledgeable. It is so obvious that she is very committed to her clients. She made me feel very supported with no judgement. Kelly made it possible for me to quit smoking. It was my first attempt at quitting after smoking for over 20 years. I did not think that I could do it, however, with Kelly's wonderful support, tools and resources, I proved myself wrong and surprised myself at how easily I did manage to quit. Thank you Kelly!Posted on JakeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kelly has been amazing. From the start, I was ready to give up and thought I was fighting a losing battle with alcohol. But from the first contact with her receptionist, through to the personalised treatment, I could not be happier. This has genuinely turned my life around. I have a brand new outlook and new views in life. I have got back to where I wanted to be heading in life with my wife and kids. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone wanting to kick any habits they want gone. She has a gift, and in my opinion, she works miracles. Going from drinking daily, to not a drop since my first session with her. Thank you very much to Kelly with her life changing methods.Posted on VirginiaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

She has a genuine desire to help others, and doesn’t shy away from a challenge. I gained so much from our time together. I only wish I tried this first, before failing countless other methods. Her own firsthand experiences mean she can properly relate to addiction. I have a newfound excitement for the future.Posted on KateTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I highly recommend Kelly to help overcome whatever your habit might be. Mine was smoking.

Thank you so much Kelly, you are amazing.Posted on LaneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I never thought hypnotherapy would work for me, until I met Kelly. Now I am a true believer! I found Kelly to be very professional while still having a very gentle and caring manner.

Excellent service, highly recommended.

What People Fear About Hypnosis
Some people are afraid of hypnosis and think it is mind control, but therapeutic hypnosis is very different to stage hypnosis. All the suggestions made will be in your own best interest and will be based on the what you tell me your goals are. I have no intention of making you cluck like a chicken unless you desperately want to.Â
Some people are worried that they will reveal secrets or say things they don’t want to – this won’t happen. Your conscious mind will be supervising (imagine it taking a back seat but still being there watching) and nobody has ever or will ever say things that they do not want to reveal. You are not unconscious or asleep, your attention is just very focused.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing
When Traditional Therapy Hasn't Worked
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a structured, evidence-based therapy developed over the past 30 years. It works by helping the brain process and work through emotional patterns, memories, and experiences connected to trauma, anxiety, and unwanted habits.
You remain fully conscious and alert throughout the process. Kelly works carefully and at a pace that feels manageable for you.
