🌀 How does hypnotherapy actually work?

It’s not about being “put under” or losing control - it’s about gently guiding your mind into a deeply relaxed, focused state.

In this calm space, your subconscious becomes more open to positive suggestions and new ways of thinking.

🌿 Hypnotherapy helps you quiet the noise of everyday thoughts and connect with the part of your mind that holds habits, emotions, and patterns. From easing anxiety and stress to building confidence or breaking old habits, it helps you make meaningful, lasting change from within. 💫
Think of it as pressing pause on the chaos - giving your mind the space to reset, rebalance, and heal.

✨ At Turning Tides Therapy, we use hypnotherapy to help you move forward with calm, confidence, and clarity.

💭 Therapy isn’t just for when things fall apart - it’s a space to help you thrive.

Sometimes life becomes a tangle of thoughts, emotions, and expectations. Therapy offers the chance to slow down, reflect, and untangle what’s been building up. It can help you understand yourself more deeply, find clarity, and strengthen your sense of well being. 🌿

Whether you’re navigating stress, anxiety, loss, or just feeling a little lost - therapy can help you reconnect with yourself, find balance, and build healthier ways to cope and grow.

Because your mental wellbeing matters - and you don’t have to face things alone. 💚

✨ At Turning Tides Therapy, we’re here to help you find calm waters again.

🌟 We all need a sense of purpose 🌟

Purpose gives our lives direction. It doesn’t have to be something grand or world-changing - sometimes it’s the small things that light us up: caring for loved ones, enjoying creativity, learning, helping others, or simply finding moments of peace.

When we lose sight of our “why,” life can feel empty or overwhelming. But reconnecting with purpose can restore hope, motivation, and meaning.

At Turning Tides Therapy, we can help you explore what truly matters to you, so you can create a life that feels more grounded and fulfilling. 🌊

💌 If you’re searching for purpose, you don’t have to search alone - we’re here to walk alongside you.

🌿 Grief is love with nowhere to go 🌿

Bereavement touches us all at some point in life, yet it can feel like one of the loneliest journeys. The waves of sadness, anger, confusion - even numbness - are natural responses to loss.

There is no “right” way to grieve, and no set timeline. Your healing is unique to you. ❤️

What matters most is giving yourself permission to feel, to remember, and to take gentle steps forward at your own pace.

At Turning Tides Therapy, we offer a safe, compassionate space to explore your grief and find ways to carry both your loss and your love.

💌 If you’re navigating bereavement, you don’t have to do it alone. Reach out when you’re ready to see how we can help.

Everyone is always going on about self-care. But why??
Taking time out for ourselves is soooo beneficial. It helps us to stop the merrygo round and hop off for a moment. It gives our brains a break, a chance to stop and realign and be ready to go again.
Self-care looks different for everyone, some people need a holiday once or twice a year, others its going to the gym or being social a few times a week. For others it could be quiet evenings and binge watching Netflix. It doesn't matter what it is, the important thing is you do it and give yourself a chance to stop.

Practicing self-care will:
Reduces stress and anxiety
Improves mental health
Boosts Self esteem and confidence
Prevent burnout
Increases a person's energy levels and productivity.

🔥 Burnout isn’t just being tired 🔥

Burnout creeps in quietly — the constant exhaustion, the lack of motivation, the feeling that even simple tasks are overwhelming. It’s your mind and body’s way of saying: “I can’t keep running on empty.”

It doesn’t mean you’re weak. It means you’ve been strong for too long without rest.

💡 The first step to healing from burnout is recognising it. The next is giving yourself permission to pause, recharge, and seek support.

At Turning Tides Therapy, we can help you find balance again — so you can reconnect with your energy, your peace, and yourself. 🌊

Why not start today? Reach out, take that first step, and open the door to the positive change you deserve.

There are times in life when we feel lost - unsure of who we are, where we’re heading, or what truly matters to us. It can feel unsettling, even frightening, to no longer recognise the path beneath our feet.

But feeling lost can also be an invitation. It’s often in these moments of uncertainty that self-reflection becomes most powerful. By pausing, looking inward, and gently asking ourselves questions - What do I value? What do I need? What am I longing for? We begin to rediscover parts of ourselves that may have been overlooked in the rush of daily life.

Self-reflection doesn’t always provide instant answers, but it creates space for clarity to grow. Being lost can be the first step toward finding a more authentic direction, one that is aligned with who you truly are.

Taking a moment each day to check in with yourself is one of the simplest yet most powerful acts of self-care. Life can be so busy that we often run on autopilot, responding to demands without noticing how we truly feel.

When you pause to ask yourself, “How am I really doing today?” you create space to notice your emotions, energy levels, and needs. This gentle awareness can help prevent stress from building unnoticed, give you the chance to rest when you need it, and celebrate the small wins that might otherwise pass by.

Daily check-ins build self-connection. They remind you that your feelings are valid, your needs matter, and that tending to your inner world is just as important as everything else on your list. Over time, this practice strengthens resilience, emotional balance, and self-compassion.
