Hypnotherapy can support a wide range of challenges, including anxiety and stress, low confidence, phobias, sleep issues, unwanted habits (such as smoking or nail biting), public speaking anxiety, performance nerves, IBS, trauma-related overwhelm, and emotional regulation. Gareth also offers specialist support including gut directed hypnotherapy, sport hypnotherapy, hypnotherapy for pain management, and weight loss hypnotherapy.

Most clients begin to notice positive shifts within the first few sessions. On average, people benefit from 6–12 sessions, depending on the issue and their personal goals. There is no fixed number — Gareth will tailor a plan based on your progress and needs.

Each session includes a structured discussion to explore your goals, followed by a relaxing trance session that helps your mind access calmer, solution-focused thinking. You remain fully awake, in control, and aware throughout. The process is gentle, safe, and designed to help you create meaningful change.
