Feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in your own head or
simply not quite yourself?
Perhaps you're struggling with confidence, sleep, unwanted habits,
fears or patterns that you know you want to change
— but haven't been able to shift on your own.
Hypnotherapy can help you work with the subconscious patterns behind the way you think, feel and respond, creating space for new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving.
I'm Natalie, a clinical hypnotherapist based in South Shields, working with clients across the North East and online.
My approach is completely individual to you — because you're not a diagnosis or a one-size-fits-all problem to solve.
What can hypnotherapy help with?
Anxiety & overthinking • Confidence & self-esteem • Stress & overwhelm • Sleep • Fears & phobias • Unwanted habits • Emotional blocks • Limiting beliefs • Relationship patterns • Life changes
How does hypnotherapy work?
Hypnosis isn't something that's done to you. It's a natural state of focused awareness and deep relaxation in which you remain aware and in control.
In this state, we can work with the subconscious patterns, beliefs and automatic responses that may be keeping you stuck — helping you create changes at a deeper level than simply trying to “think positively” or rely on willpower.
A Bespoke Approach — Because Everyone Is Different
There isn't one script or technique that works for everyone.
Your sessions are tailored around you, what you're experiencing and what you want to change.
I draw on clinical hypnotherapy, NLP and a range of therapeutic techniques to help you understand what's happening beneath the surface and create meaningful change.
Sessions are available in person in South Shields or online, with both individual sessions and longer programmes available.
1. What is hypnotherapy and how does it work?
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis — a natural state of focused attention and relaxation — to help you work with thoughts, beliefs, habits and automatic responses that may be holding you back. During a session, I use therapeutic techniques tailored to you and the changes you want to make.
2. Will I lose control or be unconscious during hypnosis?
No. You remain aware and in control throughout your hypnotherapy session. Hypnosis isn't sleep and you can't be made to do something against your will. Most people describe it as a deeply focused, relaxed state where they can still hear and respond to what is happening.
3. Can anyone be hypnotised?
Most people can experience hypnosis. You don't need to be particularly suggestible or know how to “do” hypnosis. Being willing to engage with the process is far more important. I'll explain everything beforehand so you know what to expect and can ask any questions.
4. What can hypnotherapy help with?
People come to me for support with many different areas, including:
Every person is different, so we'll discuss what you're experiencing and what you'd like to achieve before deciding on the most appropriate approach.
5. Is hypnotherapy safe?
Hypnotherapy is generally considered safe when delivered appropriately by a trained practitioner. You remain aware and in control throughout the session.
Hypnotherapy isn't a replacement for medical or mental health treatment. I'll ask about relevant health information before we work together and, where appropriate, may recommend speaking with your GP or another healthcare professional before proceeding.
6. How many hypnotherapy sessions will I need?
There isn't a set number because everyone comes with different experiences and goals. Some people choose to work on one specific issue, while others benefit from a programme of sessions to explore deeper patterns and create longer-term change. We'll discuss the best approach for you before you commit to anything.
7. Do you offer online hypnotherapy?
Yes. I offer hypnotherapy both in person in South Shields and online, allowing you to access sessions from your own home. We'll discuss which option feels most comfortable and appropriate for you.
