Hypnotherapy for Change
A hypnotherapy session is simply a chance to relax while I guide you into a calm, focused state — a bit like daydreaming. You’re always in control, and together we’ll use positive suggestions and imagery to help shift unhelpful patterns. Most people leave feeling refreshed, lighter, and more motivated.
Hypnotherapy for Creatives
Hypnotherapy sessions for creative professionals are designed to help you address performance anxiety, procrastination, imposter syndrome & burnout. We can unlock mental blocks, ease anxiety, and boost confidence. Whether you’re on stage, behind the camera, or building your career, sessions provide a calm space to reset, unlock creativity, and strengthen resilience in an industry that can be both highly demanding.

About Me
Hi, I’m Josh, a qualified hypnotherapist with a passion for helping people create lasting, positive change in their lives.
I trained in Bristol with Chrysalis and am continuing my studies and development in working within my specialised interests. I am also an accredited member of the National Association of Hypnotherapists. Alongside my clinical training, I bring over 30 years of experience in theatre, television, and film—an industry I know well, with all its unique pressures and demands. This has inspired me to specialise in supporting people working in the creative and media industries. I also offer reduced-rate sessions for young people starting out in these fields, helping them build resilience, confidence, and focus as they take their first steps.
My areas of work include managing anxiety, building self-confidence, breaking unhelpful habits, improving sleep, overcoming fears, and enhancing performance. I also have a particular interest in supporting men, with a focus on emotional and sexual health—creating a safe, open space for conversations that are often difficult to have elsewhere.
As a father of three grown-up sons, all of whom have achieved success in their own fields, I understand both the challenges and the rewards of finding your own path in life. I aim to bring that same encouragement and belief into my practice, offering clients a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where real change can happen.
Whether you’re curious about hypnotherapy for the first time, or you’re ready to take a step toward lasting transformation, I’m here to support you on your journey.
Simple and powerful
What to Expect in a Hypnotherapy Session
A hypnotherapy session is a chance to pause, reset, and tap into the power of your own mind in a calm and supportive environment.
We’ll begin with a relaxed chat about what you’d like to focus on, so I can tailor the session to your needs. Then, I’ll guide you into a comfortable state of relaxation — a bit like that dreamy space between being awake and drifting off to sleep. You’re always in control, fully aware, and able to bring yourself back at any time.
Once you’re in this focused, calm state, we’ll work together using positive suggestions, imagery, and gentle techniques to help reframe unhelpful patterns and open up new, more empowering ways of thinking and feeling. Many people describe it as deeply calming, uplifting, and surprisingly refreshing.
We’ll finish by gently bringing you back to full alertness, leaving you feeling relaxed, clear-headed, and motivated. And because hypnotherapy works with the subconscious mind, the benefits can continue to grow long after the session ends.

"Josh’s approach is very calm, patient and understanding. He was genuinely interested to find out more about the issue at hand and to understand it more in-depth. The hypnotherapy journey designed by him was a joy."
MK
-
"Where do I even begin? From the very start, Josh was kind, calm, and trustworthy. He truly took the time to listen, giving me space to reflect without any pressure. His empathy was evident throughout every interaction. Even when I felt like what I was sharing was silly or insignificant, Josh never made me feel that way. Instead, he made me feel safe, seen, and understood. His reassurance helped me realise that my light wasn’t so dim after all. Thank you so much, Josh — I’m truly grateful."
