Confidence & Self Esteem
Many people experience a lack of confidence or low self esteem, not only during speeches, presentations or public speaking, but also in social situations and sometimes life in general. Confidence develops with practise; the more we do something, the better we become and the more confident we feel when in the same situation in the future. But when our confidence is low, we can become more easily discouraged from trying and discovering new things.
Which therapy?
The most effective therapy for you depends on your individual situation. Hypnotherapy can often be helpful for addressing specific situations such as social occasions or speeches. Talking therapy or counselling can be helpful where you may have been experiencing low self esteem for some time. Talking with someone who is impartial and who can offer a fresh perspective, can help you to think and reflect, whilst helping you to move forwards in life and feel better.
What to expect
The first step is to book an initial consultation. This is an opportunity for us to meet and discuss your situation in more detail as well as answering any questions you may have and deciding on the best options for you. We will also do some hypnosis, if appropriate, to introduce you to hypnotherapy and help you prepare for future sessions. Many people find between 3 to 6 hypnotherapy sessions helpful and with talking therapy, sometimes more sessions are required.

Initial Consultation
An opportunity to meet, discuss your situation, answer questions and decide on the best options for you.
Before your appointment
When you book your initial consultation, you will receive an email containing your appointment details, along with a link to pay the deposit which is required to confirm your appointment booking. The deposit is payable within 48 hours of booking your appointment and is refunded at or following your final session, subject to the terms in the Client Agreement. Appointments are only confirmed once the deposit has been received.
The email will also contain a link to the online information form which you will need to complete before your appointment. It is important that you provide as much detail as you can on the form because this gives me more information about what you would like help with and enables me to prepare for your appointment.
A map and travel information is also available on the locations page.
During your appointment
Your initial consultation is about building a good overview of your situation and what you would like to change. We will discuss a number of things including:
- The issue(s) that you would like help with
- Your goal(s)
- Health, medical, personal, past history and other relevant issues
- Appropriate therapy options for your situation
- Practical details and your role in the therapy process
- Self help and/or therapeutic tasks between sessions
- Answering any questions you may have
Your initial consultation also includes your first therapy session. The type of therapy used will depend on your situation, but the main purpose of this first session is to familiarise you with therapy and begin your journey towards where you want to be.

Hypnotherapy, talking therapy and NLP are effective forms of therapy, however people respond differently and therefore results may vary from person to person. Full client commitment and participation is required. Listening to CDs / MP3s and carrying out other therapy tasks between sessions is an essential part of the process and this will be fully explained during your initial consultation.
