What’s NewLeaf about?
I’m often asked what can hypnotherapy be used to treat and it’s such a difficult question to answer because the answer is just about anything where the subconscious is involved. Sometimes whatever that is doesn’t have an obvious connection to the subconscious so if you’re wondering if hypnotherapy can help you, the answer is most likely yes!

Heather
Confidence/Anxiety/Young person
“Helen helped me massively with self worth and self confidence. I was having a tough time at work and she was able to teach me techniques as well as provide suggestions that helped me to work through it all. My daughter (10yo) has also had sessions with Helen. She was really struggling at school, she had a poor relationship with her teacher and she was awaiting assessments for Autism and ADHD. We went away and my daughter found it all a bit much, she was exhausted, overstimulated and had a really difficult meltdown. She asked for an appointment with Helen, which I booked for the following week. Helen provided she with tools to support her in growing her self confidence and to help her manage her feelings and avoid meltdowns. Before this we really struggled with meltdowns that could spiral out of control and last for hours, without any way of stopping them. We now use tapping very effectively to stop a meltdown before it gets too far. She’s made a huge impact on our lives, we can’t thank her enough.”
