Identify and release the physical symptoms, core events, beliefs and behaviours that underpin your anxiety. With Hypnotherapy and EFT it is possible to regain control over your physical sensations & emotions, release triggering thoughts and memories and boost self esteem and confidence. Sessions are individually tailored to suit your needs and goals. Sessions differ from talk therapies like Counselling and Psychology- by working with physical symptoms, where we store tension in the body we can change the way it is encoded in the nervous system with thoughts and memories.

Chronic Pain is like a fire alarm that has not been shut off; healing has occurred however the neural pathways that are sending the pain message from the brain are still active. The OldPain2Go process is a fast and effective technique that recalibrates those neural systems and resets your internal alarm system, so that it can be alert to warn you of new danger. I am a certified practitioner of OldPain2Go and in my first training session, let go of trapped nerve pain in my elbow, arthritic pain in my wrist and fingers and 25 year old knee pain. Testimonials from people around the world can be found here.

"Chrissy is so good at what she does. I have had 3 treatments with her to help deal with some of the effects of cancer treatment and other emotional issues and these have been enormously helpful. She has also given me techniques that I can use to help myself at any time. I highly recommend her services to anyone." - Catherine Seal, (Online Hypnotherapy and EFT sessions)
For most people, a diagnosis of cancer results in feelings of shock, anxiety, overwhelm, disbelief and grief, releasing a cascade of stress hormones throughout the body which in turn can disrupt sleep and lead to adrenal fatigue, placing even more stress on the immune system. I support people to come to terms with their diagnosis and release the intense feelings and emotional triggers around relationships, hospitals, treatments and outcomes and provide hypnotherapy audios to aid sleep, boost the immune system and relieve discomfort.
Many people report nausea, fatigue and pain whilst undergoing cancer treatments. Hypnotherapy and Tapping (EFT) have been clinically shown to reduce nausea, fatigue and pain at this time. More recently, studies have also shown that Hypnotherapy and EFT boost immune function through regulating gene expression. (see research below) Reiki Healing is also available to support the relaxation response and immune system.
A review of clinical trials showed that " hypnosis may help treat symptoms of nausea and vomiting in breast cancer patients, manage pain in a variety of contexts, and also reduce levels of anxiety and overall distress around surgical and medical procedures, both in children and adults. Emerging research shows promise for treating hot flashes in women with breast cancer." -The role of Hypnosis in Cancer Care, L.Carlson et al, 2017. In one study the hypnotherapy group had a significantly higher frequency of days where positive feelings were greater than negative (85% of days versus 43% of days for the Control group). Postoperative complications and hospitalizations for the hypnotic intervention group are significantly shorter than the norm. Emotional Freedom Technique, (EFT) combines the tapping of acupressure points with the fingers and elements of mindfulness, exposure therapy, EMDR and self hypnosis. EFT has recently been shown in a pilot study to regulate over 70 genes involved in immune function, tumour supression, insulin regulation and inflammation in just a single session. (Maharaj, M.
