Sometimes children feel things so deeply that they don’t have the words for it yet and that can be overwhelming for them and for us as parents.

As a mum of four children, and with both personal and professional experience supporting children on the spectrum, I understand just how unique every child’s world can be. No two children experience emotions in the same way, and that’s okay.

In my hypnotherapy sessions, I use gentle, child-friendly techniques stories, imagination, grounding tools to help children understand what’s going on inside their bodies and minds in a way that feels safe, calm and pressure-free.

If you feel your child could benefit from a softer, more supportive approach to emotions, I’m always here to help. 💛

🌿 Hypnotherapy Tip of the Day 🌿

If your mind has been running at 100mph lately, try this tiny reset:

Put your hand on your chest and take one slow breath…
In through your nose for 4… hold for 2… and out for 6.

It sounds simple, but this breathing pattern quietly tells your brain:
“You’re safe. You can soften now.”

Your mind doesn’t need huge changes to feel better it just needs small, steady moments where you come back to yourself.

If you’d like more little tips like this, let me know.

If your mind had a little reset button…
What would you press it for today?

• Stress that’s been building up
• Anxiety or overthinking
• Low confidence
• Feeling overwhelmed
• Your child’s anxiety or big emotions

Hypnotherapy is a gentle way to help your brain find that reset feeling again.
It’s calming, safe and focused on your emotional wellbeing for adults, teens and children.

If your mind has felt “stuck” lately, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
I offer supportive, down-to-earth hypnotherapy sessions right here in Chestfield, plus free consultations if you just want to talk first.

Drop your “reset” in the comments — you’ll be surprised how many people feel exactly the same. 💚

🌿 What Could Really Be Behind a Fear or Phobia?

Sometimes a fear or phobia isn’t about the thing itself… it’s about the feeling underneath it.

For some people, a fear develops after one overwhelming moment.
For others, it’s something that slowly builds over time, often without them even realising.

And quite often, it’s the body trying to protect us just a little too enthusiastically.

Fear of flying, dogs, sickness, driving, spiders… whatever it is, there’s usually a deeper reason your mind reacts the way it does. It might be:

✨ A past experience your body never fully processed
✨ An old worry that’s still sitting in the background
✨ Feeling out of control in certain situations
✨ Sensory overwhelm
✨ Or simply a brain that learned “this feels unsafe” even when the logical part of you knows it isn’t

None of this means you’re “dramatic” or “irrational.”
It means you’re human.

In hypnotherapy, I work gently with the mind and body to understand where these reactions come from and help you build new, calmer responses instead. You don’t have to push yourself or feel embarrassed. We go at your pace, with kindness and curiosity.

If you’d like to explore your fear or phobia in a safe, compassionate way, I offer a free phone consultation so you can ask any questions before booking.

🌟 A Gentle Start to December

December can feel magical for children, but it can also feel overwhelming. School gets busy, routines shift, and there’s so much excitement and noise that their little nervous systems can struggle to keep up.

If your child has been more emotional, tired, clingy or easily stressed, it’s not bad behaviour it’s a sign their body is trying to cope with “a lot” all at once.

In my sessions, I use gentle, child-friendly hypnotherapy, stories and grounding techniques to help children feel calmer, steadier and more in control during busy times like this.

If you feel your child could use some extra support this month, you’re always welcome to message me. I’m here, and I understand how much this time of year can impact them, and you. 💚

And if you’ve never been to my little cabin, it’s cosy, warm, quiet and designed to feel like a retreat tucked away from everyday life. You walk in and your shoulders drop instantly. 🤍

If you’re feeling drained, stressed, or just need half an hour where someone looks after you…

🌿 Body image is one of the biggest quiet battles teenagers face…
And the hardest part? Most of the time, they don’t say a word about it.

As a mum of four, I see firsthand how early the comparison starts the mirror-checking, the “I don’t like this about myself,” the pressure to look a certain way. And as a therapist, I see what sits underneath it: a young person who’s trying to make sense of who they are while their brain, body, and emotions are all growing at completely different speeds.

Teenagers often feel things so intensely because they are still building their inner foundation their confidence, self-worth, and sense of identity. When the world around them is loud, filtered, and full of opinions, it’s no wonder their inner voice can become harsh.

But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
In my sessions, I combine hypnotherapy with gentle, practical techniques to help teens understand why they feel the way they do, calm the constant self-criticism, and start building a healthier relationship with themselves from the inside out.

It’s not about “fixing” them because they’re not broken.
It’s about helping them reconnect with the parts of themselves they’ve forgotten to see.

If your teen is struggling with confidence, body image, or self-esteem, you’re not alone and neither are they.
I offer a free phone consultation so you can ask questions and see if I’m the right fit for your family.

Some days I sit in my little Willow Hypnotherapy room and think about how many people carry so much on their shoulders… quietly.

The parents who say “I’m fine” while running on empty.
The teenagers who look confident but feel overwhelmed inside.
The adults who hold everything together and don’t want to “bother anyone.”

And honestly?
I get it. I really do. Life doesn’t slow down just because we need a minute.

Hypnotherapy isn’t about fixing people or telling anyone how they “should” feel.
It’s about giving your mind a breather a space where you can switch off, reset, and remember what calm actually feels like again.

If you’re at that point where your brain feels tired, tangled or just full, you’re welcome to reach out.
No pressure. No judgement.
Just a gentle space for you.

If you’d like a chat to see if I can help, I offer a free phone consultation before booking anything in. ❤️

Why a Hypnotherapy Gift Voucher Actually Makes Sense

If you’re stuck for gift ideas this year, a hypnotherapy voucher is genuinely a good option especially for someone who never takes time for themselves.

It’s not about “fixing” anyone.
It’s simply giving them a chance to switch off, relax, and feel a bit more like themselves again.

A session can help with things like:
• letting the mind slow down
• easing tension
• feeling calmer and more grounded
• having a proper, guided reset

People have all sorts of ideas about hypnotherapists.
Some think I float around speaking in slow, mysterious voices…
Others think I spend my day swinging a pocket watch like I’m in a 1950s movie. 😂

Meanwhile the real me is just trying to remember where I left my phone (usually… in my hand), and wondering why the washing machine sounds offended again.

I often get asked if hypnotherapy is some sort of mind-control superpower.
But honestly, if I could control anyone’s mind, I’d start by convincing myself to enjoy mornings a bit more and stop opening the fridge just to stare inside. 😅

Hypnotherapy is actually simple, calm, and surprisingly logical.
It just helps your mind focus, switch into a more relaxed state, and make positive changes more easily no magic tricks, no dramatic chanting, and definitely no turning people into chickens.

So yes, I’m a hypnotherapist…
But also a normal human who loses their keys, laughs at random things, and occasionally forgets what I walked into a room for.

And maybe that’s the best part, real people helping real people.

🌿 How Hypnotherapy Works for Young Children (It’s Not What You Think!) 🌿

When people hear “hypnotherapy,” they often imagine someone lying back with their eyes closed, listening quietly for half an hour.

That is not how it works with young children.

Children learn through play, imagination, and stories so their sessions look completely different.

In my clinic, hypnotherapy for children is gentle, fun, and designed to help them understand their big feelings in a way that actually makes sense to them.

✨ What it looks like:
• I use toys and games to explore feelings safely.
• I use stories and metaphors to help them understand what’s happening inside their brains and bodies.
• I use simple relaxation techniques that feel natural like blowing bubbles, using their imagination, or creating their own “mind superpower.”
• I keep everything playful, age-appropriate, and based on what they enjoy.

It’s a combination of child-friendly hypnotherapy, imagination work, creativity, and gentle psychology all wrapped up in a session that feels more like play than anything else.

And because children are naturally imaginative, they respond beautifully when therapy meets them at their level.

If your child struggles with big emotions, worries, sleep, confidence, or school stress, this gentle approach can make a huge difference without ever feeling overwhelming.
