Hypnotherapy for Anxiety in Bicester and Nationwide: Overcome Anxiety and Live a Fulfilling Life
As a Clinical Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist based in Bicester, Oxfordshire, I specialise in hypnotherapy for anxiety and offer a range of services designed to support individuals from all walks of life.
I have a particular interest in supporting men's mental health and the LGBTQIA+ community, informed by my personal experiences and understanding of the unique challenges faced by these groups.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, depression/low mood, or navigating significant life transitions, my aim is to help you regain control and live the life you truly desire.
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that combines hypnosis with talking therapy, allowing us to address the root causes of stress, anxiety, phobias, and negative thought patterns.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), used alongside hypnosis, helps you focus on solutions, making it easier to develop practical, achievable goals for long-term success.
Utilising techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Mindfulness, I assist you in breaking free from unhelpful cycles of worry and stress.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety, stress management, phobias, or self-esteem issues, hypnotherapy can facilitate meaningful changes in your life.

I offer hypnotherapy for anxiety in Bicester, Upper Heyford, and surrounding areas like Banbury, Kidlington, and Chipping Norton.
Additionally, I provide online hypnotherapy sessions nationwide, allowing clients across the UK to benefit from remote hypnotherapy via Zoom or other online platforms.
If you're searching for hypnotherapy sessions online, Zoom therapy for anxiety, or online hypnotherapy nationwide, I offer flexible, accessible options tailored to fit your schedule. Online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions, providing the convenience of remote support for clients who need it.
