Hypnotherapy for Relationships and Parenting in Brixton and Online

Our earliest relationships teach us what to expect from love. If closeness felt unsafe or unpredictable, you may learn to hold back, or to cling, or to keep the peace at any cost. As adults those patterns come along into partnerships, friendships and family life, and they are not something you have chosen.

In my work I take personal responsibility very seriously, and I mean that kindly. It is not about blame. It is about noticing what you can change, so that you are no longer at the mercy of old reactions.

Jealousy, mistrust, fear of rejection and trouble with closeness often come from parts of us that are trying to protect against being hurt. In sessions we get to know those parts, understand what they are afraid of and help them to relax. Many clients tell me they feel calmer, clearer in how they communicate and more able to stay present when things get hard. I also offer couples sessions.

Parenting is wonderful and relentless, and it can make you lose yourself. I have been there as a parent myself, and I see many mothers who feel stretched between work, children and everything else, with no room left for themselves. We look at guilt, overwhelm and expectations, the transition back to work, and how to be present with your children without disappearing.

I also work with the relationships we carry from our own childhoods, including the complicated bond between mothers and daughters. Healing that connection can change how you parent, and how you feel in yourself.
