How I can help
What would you
like help with?
You may know exactly what you want to work on, or simply know that something needs to change. We can start from there.
Find out about the servicesWeight management and eating habits
If snacking or eating in response to stress keeps getting in the way of your plans, we can talk about those patterns and whether my six-session weight-loss programme is appropriate for you.
02Stopping smoking
If you are ready to stop and want to explore hypnotherapy, ask about my dedicated smoking-cessation session. We can discuss your routines, previous attempts and what you hope to change.
03Anxiety, stress and sleep
When it is difficult to switch off, hypnotherapy offers a way to work with relaxation and the thoughts or habits that may be contributing to how you feel.
04Confidence, fears and habits
From preparing to speak in public to an unwanted habit such as nail biting, sessions begin with your particular situation and what you want to be different.

A conversation.

A starting point.
Choosing someone to work with is personal. My approach centres on understanding you as an individual and explaining what we are doing, so you can make an informed choice about the next step.

Your first session
Know what to expect
before you arrive.
Your first session starts with a conversation and a form about you and what you’d like help with. We discuss what you would like to work on before moving into guided hypnosis and suggestions relevant to your goals.
Hypnosis does not mean handing over control. You can speak, ask questions or stop at any time - you are always in control. You do not have to accept a suggestion you do not want.
We talk
About you, what has brought you here and what you would like to work on.
We agree a focus
With time for your questions and an explanation of the approach.
You stay in control
Guided hypnosis with suggestions relevant to your goals. You can speak or stop at any time.
Standard sessions are approximately one hour. View fees
A client’s experience
When we met, Ian talked me through the process step by step and put me at ease. I was comfortable and relaxed throughout the session.
