About public Speaking
Do you feel the nerves rise when you need to speak in front of others — whether in a meeting, interview, classroom or on stage? You’re not alone. Fear of public speaking is one of the most common anxieties and can affect people from all professions and walks of life.
The good news: it doesn’t have to stay this way.
Through hypnotherapy for public speaking, Gareth helps clients across Stockport, Cheshire and Manchester overcome speaking anxiety, performance fear and self-doubt. This neuroscience-informed approach retrains the brain to feel calm, confident and in control.
Public speaking anxiety is rooted in the brain’s instinctive fear response. The moment you imagine being judged, making a mistake or “freezing,” the brain reacts as though you’re in danger, triggering fight-or-flight.
In a relaxed, focused hypnotherapy session, we work together to:
Stay calm and composed when speaking
Improve clarity and confidence in your voice
Reduce negative self-talk and performance anxiety
Visualise success and positive outcomes
Reconnect with your natural presence and authority
Public speaking hypnotherapy does not teach you to “fake” confidence — it helps your mind create real, lasting confidence from the inside out.
Feel more in control when speaking publicly
Break the fear of judgement
Stop freezing or losing your train of thought
Build long-term confidence and self-belief
Speak with clarity, calmness and authority
Improve job interview performance
Communicate professionally under pressure
Each session is tailored to your personal triggers, experiences and public speaking goals.
Confidence is not something you’re simply born with — it’s a skill you can build.
During public speaking hypnotherapy, Gareth provides a calm, supportive environment where you can explore your speaking fears without pressure or embarrassment. You’ll learn how to shift old thought patterns, reduce anxiety and grow comfortable with expressing your ideas clearly.
Whether you’re preparing for:
work presentations
interviews
speeches
group discussions
online meetings
academic presentations
…your sessions are designed to help you communicate with strength, clarity and assurance.
Together, we strengthen your mindset so you can show up confidently — without overthinking, fear or self-doubt.
Most people notice progress between 4–8 sessions, depending on the severity of their speaking anxiety and their goals.
