I'm Francesca, a qualified and registered hypnotherapist, trained in analytical hypnotherapy with psychotherapy. I help my clients with challenges including anxiety, stress, low confidence, anger, jealousy, and sleeplessness. I also help with relationship difficulties, including anxious, avoidant, and disorganised attachment patterns.

As you arrive to therapy, you might experience a complex mix of thoughts and feelings. It's common to think — 'I know what's wrong with me, but I don't know how to change.' or 'I'm frustrated — I keep doing the same thing, but I don't know why.' 

Some of my clients have some previous experience with therapy. For others, it's their first time opening up to someone.

Challenges I help with include:

- Overcoming anxiety and stress

- Improving emotional regulation and resolving issues including anger and jealousy

- Exploring and resolving relationship issues and challenges

- Overcoming low confidence and improving your self-esteem

- Resolving insecure attachment patterns, including anxious, avoidant, and disorganised ways of relating to others — these are sometimes called ‘commitment issues’ or ‘abandonment issues’

- Processing and integrating complex life experiences

- Developing a better sense of self and exploring your identity

- Healing the pain that comes from growing up in a dysfunctional family 

- Ending self-destructive behaviours and improving your self-care

- Resolving sleeplessness

About Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy uses a combination of hypnosis and conversation-based therapy to explore and resolve the underlying causes of issues and symptoms. 

The process uncovers experiences at the level of the unconscious mind and brings them into the present so they can be explored, deconstructed, and healed with the support of a therapist.

I offer a combination of analytical hypnotherapy, suggestion hypnotherapy, and coaching. These methods explore and resolve long-term issues at the root cause while providing you with tools for immediate change.

I provide a non-judgemental space for exploration. My approach is compassionate, accepting, and insightful.
