Melbourne Hypnotherapy & Hypnobirthing for Mamas
 
 

One-On-One Hypnotherapy Sessions

I welcome you into my light-filled clinic in Surrey Hills or if you prefer Telehealth from the comfort of your home

 

Motherhood

Whether you have a new baby or adult children, I am here to support you with any challenge motherhood throws your way. Being a mum myself, I understand the mental load and the ‘invisible work’ well and I believe mamas must not be forgotten! After all, we are the backbone of society - our children, family and community thrive when we are well. My hypnotherapy is designed to help you:

  • Carve out some much needed 'me time' for deep relaxation and restoration of your nervous system.

  • Feel supported through postpartum anxiety and depression so you can see the light at the end of the tunnel and enjoy your baby.

  • Debunk the myth of 'The Perfect Mother'.

  • Shift weight struggles and help you love your body again.

  • Handle work transitions with busy family life.

  • Restore your confidence in self again.

  • Parent from a calm, loving place instead of stress and reactivity.

  • Process PTSD when life throws a curve ball and your child has developmental delays or unexpected diagnosis.

  • Release the mental load and constant juggle (not to mention the never ending pile of washing...). 

  • Dare to dream again and pursue things that light you up and bring you joy (my favorite).


Pregnancy

Congratulations on your pregnancy, Mama! It's an exciting time and often not without some anxieties. There is a lot of stigma in society if we don't appear glowing or grateful during this time... And we can suffer in silence again.

If you want to find ways to feel calm and relaxed as you're growing your baby, you've come to the right place. I can help you:

  • Find deep relaxation for you and baby and keep stress levels at bay.

  • Restore your inner balance as you go through big hormonal changes.

  • Reduce your morning sickness and help you feel well in your pregnancy.

  • Improve your confidence and self-esteem as your body goes through so much change.

  • Provide a positive and nurturing support for your pregnancy.

  • Free yourself from the fears and anxieties yo may hold from previous pregnancies and/or miscarriages.

  • Work with you and your team to help with complications, breech, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia and placenta previa.


Fertility & IVF

This is a tender and vulnerable time. And immensely private - as such often without much emotional support when you need it most. And the pressure on partners can be huge often feeling like they're falling short. I'm here to hold space for you and your emotions and work with you to improve your fertility naturally and/or in line with IVF treatment. I can help you in these areas:

  • Alleviate your fears and anxieties and help you to accept and connect with your body and its timeline.

  • Achieve a deep state of relaxation and significantly reduce your stress levels.

  •  Access the skills and resources you will need to cope better and handle setbacks more easily.

  • Prepare you mentally, emotionally and physically for each cycle giving your body the best chance at conceiving.

  • Create positive lifestyle changes and removing limiting beliefs that are no longer serving you.

  • Help you manage pressure and expectations and restoring confidence in your body’s natural abilities again. 

 

 

You might be wondering... 

What exactly is hypnotherapy?

You know that feeling when you're watching your favorite show and you get so absorbed in it that everything else fades in the background? Or you finally get to read that book you've been eyeing off for a while completely losing track of time? How about driving to a café to meet a friend and you wonder how you even got there? These are all examples of self-hypnosis, a relaxing and a natural state of mind that happens to every person throughout the day. In hypnotherapy I help you enter hypnosis with your consent at a fast rate and work with your subconscious mind - the treasure chest that holds all your memories, experiences, values and beliefs. Together we work as a team to uncover what is holding you back and how to move forward. It's an incredible experience!

 

What can I expect from the session?

In the first session I will get to know you and discuss what you are wanting to work on and achieve. I will map out the best course of action and I’ll always include hypnosis for the issue you are wanting treated, helping you experience a beautifully relaxed state.

 

Can I lose control?

You are always in control throughout your hypnosis experience. You'll have full control of yourself and feel aware of your environment. You'll be able to make decisions at all times. I cannot suggest anything that is against your values and I cannot take away your free will. It is simply impossible for the subconscious mind to allow.

What if I can't be hypnotised?

Here is the thing. All hypnosis is self-hynosis. If you want to be hypnotised, you will be hypnotised :) Your amazing brain accesses a hypnotic state many times throughout the day anyway, so naturally you are already good at it without even realising!

 

What if I don't come out of hypnosis? 

No one has ever not come out of hypnosis so please be reassured - you have nothing to fear. When you come out of hypnosis, you will feel refreshed and alert, ready to get on with your day. 

How long is your session and what is the investment?

All sessions go for 60 minutes, which means you’ll always have plenty of time to ease into a beautiful hypnosis experience. The investment is $190 per session with credit card payment facility available at the end of the session.

 

What's the best way to make an appointment with you?
