Clinical Hypnotherapy + Psychotherapy
The Pause, With Pip Approach
Where neuroscience meets deep self-connection — and change finally feels possible. This isn’t therapy. It’s not mindset coaching. It’s not a strategy session.
It’s something else entirely. A grounded, evidence-based process that rewires what’s no longer working — and rebuilds your relationship with self from the inside out.
A Duo That Gets You Unstuck
Rooted in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Strategic Psychotherapy, my approach goes far beyond surface insight. We work directly with the brain’s operating system — not just to make sense of your patterns, but to shift them. From stress responses to self-doubt loops, we rewire the stories your nervous system is running, so your calm becomes habitual. Not forced. Not fleeting.
But what makes this process different is what wraps around the clinical core.
I blend in the rigour of Positive Psychology Coaching. The clarity and direction of Navigating Transitions Coaching. The lived and certified insight of Menopause Coaching. The precision of Neuroscience Coaching.
That means we don’t just explore why things feel hard.
We recalibrate how you relate to the hard — so you’re no longer bracing through life. You’re responding from choice, self-trust, and inner steadiness.
Together, we work with:
- Anxiety, overthinking, and looping self-talk
- Burnout, decision paralysis, and people-pleasing
- Identity shifts during menopause or major life transitions
- Stress-based habits that no longer serve
- A quiet sense that something’s off — even if life looks “fine”
You’ll stay aware and in control the entire time. You’ll leave with tools you actually use. And for the first time in a long time, you’ll feel like you’re home in yourself.
Who Does It Help?
My approach is practical, safe, and grounded in neuroscience. You’ll stay aware and in control throughout the process. The goal isn’t to fix you. It’s to help your brain create new pathways that feel safer, steadier, and more aligned with how you want to live.
Calms chronic anxiety and rumination
Shifts stress-based habits and reactions
Supports self-trust, clarity, and emotional regulation
Frequently Asked Questions
Clinical Hypnotherapy is a safe, evidence-based process that helps you rewire unconscious patterns through focused attention and relaxation. It’s not stage hypnosis — there’s no swinging watches or mind control. You remain alert, aware, and in control. Online sessions via Zoom are just as effective as in-person work. In fact, many clients find it easier to relax from the comfort of their own space. All you need is a quiet room, a comfortable chair or couch, and a reliable internet connection.
Strategic Psychotherapy focuses on how you think, rather than why. It helps identify unhelpful cognitive patterns and teaches you to replace them with more functional strategies — fast. When combined with Clinical Hypnotherapy, it means you're not just talking about change — you're experiencing it at a subconscious level too. This integrated approach is powerful for anxiety, overwhelm, confidence issues, and unhelpful habits.
Yes, definitely. My coaching sessions include cognitive tools, mindset strategies, and emotional support — all grounded in neuroscience. Hypnotherapy is powerful, but optional. Your comfort matters most.
Positive Psychology Coaching focuses on what’s right with you — not what’s broken. It's rooted in evidence-based practices that enhance wellbeing, resilience, motivation, and meaning. Expect practical tools, honest conversations, and a space that brings out your best thinking. You might find yourself sleeping better, making braver decisions, or finally following through on what matters most.
Therapy often focuses on healing the past and resolving clinical concerns. Coaching is future-focused and builds on your existing strengths. I can help you decide what’s best — and if you're unsure, we’ll talk it through together. If you have a clinical diagnosis (like depression or an anxiety disorder), I’ll need written permission from your healthcare provider to work with you — or I can refer you to someone better suited. Your wellbeing is always the priority.
