I specialize in helping individuals navigate through depression and its symptoms, whether it’s linked to life experiences, personal situation, feelings of isolation or other cause.

Hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching for depression
Hypnotherapy, NLP, and coaching are powerful tools for managing and overcoming depression, helping you break free from the patterns that keep you feeling stuck, hopeless, and drained.
By working with the subconscious mind, I help you using:
Hypnotherapy to reframe the way you perceive your thoughts and emotions, making it easier to release negative feelings and cultivate a sense of inner calm and resilience.
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) techniques to shift negative thought patterns, empowering you to take control of your mindset and develop a more positive, hopeful outlook on life.
Coaching to add an additional layer of support, guiding you to set achievable goals, rebuild self-esteem, and create actionable strategies for finding joy and purpose in your daily life.
Along with the other psychological and somatic tools in my kit, I create a bespoke plan that provides a holistic pathway to not just managing depression but transforming it, allowing you to rediscover a sense of balance, fulfilment, and inner strength.
Other tools:
- Meditation and mindfulness
- Breathwork
- Emotional Freedom Technique
- Eye Movement Reprocessing (e.g. EMDR)
