What happens during a hypnotherapy session

Each session is structured but flexible, depending on your needs.

You can expect:

time to talk through your situation and goals
a guided hypnotherapy session using relaxation and focused attention
practical techniques to support you between sessions

You remain aware and in control throughout, and the process is calm and collaborative.

What does hypnosis feel like?

Hypnosis is a natural, relaxed state of focused attention.

You are always in control and can come out of hypnosis at any time.

Catherine Laing Hypnotherapy has helped me immeasurably, especially due to the goal orientated, positive approach. I left every session more optimistic, with a deeper understanding of how my body was functioning and why I was experiencing anxiety; I would recommend Catherine to all! And I always feel welcome to return for a refresher if necessary!

I Contacted Catherine Laing at a time when I was depressed, stressed and struggling with my weight. On our initial consultation, Catherine put me at ease and I felt I could relate to her and trust that she would be able to help me resolve my issues. Ten sessions later, I felt a different person. I was calmer, able to function better than I had done for years and truly found a new zest for life. Her therapy totally improved my home, social and work life. As a result of this I've lost weight and continued to improve my health and fitness. If you're in a similar situation to the old me, I'd definitely recommend you contact Catherine Laing.

I saw Catherine for anxiety and then again for bereavement and I can only say her treatment has got me through some very dark times indeed.
I will always reach out for a top up if needed. I can’t recommend her services enough she really is a true professional and one of the most genuine people I have ever met. Her process is calm and engaging and she very much puts you at ease.
Don’t hesitate just book you will never regret it.

After struggling with anxiety from being a child (now 60). I decided to give hypnotherapy a whirl as felt nothing to lose. It has been a life changing experience for me. Catherine put me at ease immediately she taught me the true facts of anxiety and over sessions my life changed. I can’t thank Catherine enough. I had tried medicines and numerous other therapies to end up in the same place. 100% recommend and if your reading this feeling more anxious and a little scared 😱 please don’t because it’s life changing. Reach out to Catherine

Catherine was fantastic. I went with symptoms I had endured for years. Within 4 sessions she had completely cured my symptoms and i have not experienced any since.
She is very knowledgeable and warm I would recommend if you are suffering don’t hesitate to book sessions with Catherine.
You will not be sorry.
