Feeling anxious in day-to-day life? I’m Stephanie, a solution-focused hypnotherapist in Bristol & Monmouth since 2008.
I can help you make small, practical shifts that lead to real change.
👉Together we focus on achievable steps — not reliving trauma — and combine hypnotherapy with embodiment to calm your nervous system.
☀️Many clients notice their morning panic and general stress ease within weeks and are able to manage busy days with more confidence.

Feeling overwhelmed? Here are three simple resilience exercises you can try today, to help reduce overwhelm and build emotional stamina.
1) Ground-and-Name (for rumination): Pause, plant your feet, take three slow breaths and name three sensations — e.g., “warmth in my hands, feet on the floor, steady breath.” Clinically, grounding shifts attention from repetitive thoughts into present-moment, interrupting the rumination loop.
2) The Pause-and-List (for short temper): When irritation rises, take a 30-second pause and list two possible responses and their likely outcomes. This brief gap helps you engage the prefrontal cortex and choose a calmer action.
3) Micro-Recovery Ritual (for burnout): Schedule two 5-minute recovery rituals into your day — gentle stretching, a tea break without screens, or breathing at a window. These tiny, regular resets lower stress hormones and rebuild capacity over time.
These are practical, evidence-informed 1st Aid exercises I use to teach in my resilience workshops.
✨ What will you try today? Let me know below.

Dear clients and community,
We are beginning to get more organised after the dreadful floods two weeks ago.
Sadly the Bridges Community Centre have an awful lot of work to do before they can safely let us back in.
So, in the meantime, I have secured a lovely room at “the place to be” above Dylan’s crystal shop. It’s on the high street (ie Monnow Street), but on the 1st and 2nd floor: so, we’ll be nice and cozy up there.

Morning everyone.
I hope all my Wye valley clients and friends are safe and dry.
I’m personally fine, but obviously The Bridges Community Centre has been badly affected by the floods.
I will be going to help out this week for the clear up.
Hypnotherapy for Monmouth clients is moved online and to Chepstow.

Bristol appointments remain unchanged.

Take care everyone,
Stephanie

If you don’t feel free, what is really holding you back? Is it other people and circumstances? Or is it your relationship to them? Or your own limiting beliefs?
Freedom is always there to be found.
The journey may not be that easy.
Keep on being true to yourself .

Friday wind down and feeling good about the week .
Came across this testimonial from an online client.
It’s important to us therapists to know that what we do helps 😊 and even better when it’s helped a lot 👌⭐️

“Working with Stephanie has been powerful and also a lot of fun. Because my mindset has changed I’m already starting to attract positive opportunities and people into my life. I feel so much happier and I’m very grateful. Thank you.”
