Absolutely not. We all struggle at times, in our lives, and can get stuck trying to achieve our goals both personally and professionally, reaching out for professional support does not make you a weak person, reaching out and doing the work makes you strong, resilient, and more confident about yourself and your abilities to live the life you desire.

I work with adults who are committed to change. I often see a high number of clients who work in high-stress environments including business owners, and want rapid relief from stress, anxiety, and insomnia, are experiencing a lack of confidence, money mindset and success blocks, loss of motivation and have hit a plateau in scaling their business. A further number of clients contact me for relationship issues, weight issues, addictions such as smoking or vaping, fear of public speaking so they can effortlessly give presentations. Some athletes contact me wanting to improve their sports performance too. I’m also a trauma informed practitioner, and use EFT, EMDR and Havening with those wanting to recover and move on from Trauma and PTSD

The simple answer is, yes, if you want it to, and no if you don’t. Philippa works in partnership with you, so you must have a commitment to yourself and Philippa to do you part in helping you make positive lasting changes.

Philippa uses Performance Mindset Coaching to address under-performance, current performance and future performance.

Philippa uses different therapeutic techniques that help you to change habits, heal wounds of the past, lessen symptoms and treat a variety of conditions.

So rather than paying for two separate professionals, you get an integrated service with Philippa.

Yes, hypnotherapy and hypnosis are safe when performed by a professional by a highly skilled and qualified hypnotherapist, which Philippa is.

The therapeutic process is one of a deep state of relaxation and focus, with a goal in mind. It’s a natural state of mind that many people experience daily, like when you daydream or become absorbed in a great movie. You always remain in control and Philippa cannot make you do something that goes against your moral or ethical beliefs. You cannot be forced to do anything against your will.

It’s important to know that hypnotherapy and hypnosis is not for everyone, such as individuals with epilepsy, certain mental health conditions, people under the influence of drugs and alcohol. That’s why its important to work with a professional hypnotherapist such as Philippa, who can determine if hypnotherapy is right for you, and if it isn’t, she has other therapeutic techniques that can work just as effectively, which is another great benefit of working with Philippa.

It is advised that individuals with epilepsy, schizophrenia etc. Alcohol and certain drugs will impact the efficacy of the sessions; other impediments might have to do with repressed memories.

Hypnosis is much like daydreaming, you will feel safe and profoundly relaxed, yet still in control to make the changes that you desire to make.

The simple answer is no. Within my skillset I have access to over 350 different techniques in how to help clients create change without the need to use hypnotherapy or hypnosis. This is a great benefit when working with me.

Whichever technique or blended techniques that I select to help you achieve your outcome, often you will feel an immediate change. Sometimes over the following days you will notice changes, or sometimes it’s nit until someone notices a difference in how you are, that you notice the change.

The coaching and therapy I practice is designed towards lasting change. Permanence is up to each client and their consistent commitment to themselves and the changes they have decided to make.

It’s important we talk to gauge whether the services that I offer are the right fit for you, gauge if we feel a rapport. This is crucial in the coaching and therapeutic relationship. The other is that I only work with people who are committed to change and investing in themselves.
