I have ADHD, can you work with me?

I get asked this question a lot and it’s not just limited to ADHD…

It’s also autism, Tourettes, dyspraxia, dyslexia or simply just a “busy brain”. The simple answer is yes! If you want to work with me, I will be able to find a way to work with you. Sometimes we make adjustments like giving you the opportunity to get up and move around during your session or breaking the hypnosis element into shorter, more manageable bursts rather than one long session or even shorter sessions. We can make it work for you whatever you need.

I wanted to write this blog post after speaking yesterday to 150 medical professionals at their neurodivergence training afternoon. It was loads of fun – we even had a mass meditation session. There are unconfirmed reports of someone even dropping off to sleep during it!

There were two moments that stood out in my mind from that session.

The first was a really powerful video that was played showing a number of different neurodivergent people listing the words they had been called over their lives. Words like “disruptive”, “naughty”, “lazy”, “fidgety”, “emotional” and “rude” amongst others were listed. It just makes you realise what people with these conditions – diagnosed and undiagnosed are facing in a world that’s not designed to fit them.

The second was an activity where we had to throw a ball solve a puzzle and read a document all at the same time. There was absolute mayhem in the room for about a minute while we gave it a go. After we all settled down again, the speaker explained that this was what it was like inside her head. What a great way to explain it!

Hypnotherapy is not about curing or fixing neurodiversity (you don’t need to be fixed anyway!) – it’s about giving you tools or techniques to help you navigate a challenging world and some of the things you face like reducing anxiety, coping during overload situations or improving your sleep and if you happen to want to tackle your fear of flying, quit smoking or help with that job interview, I’m here for you.

Common Therapies

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!

I’ve given a little more detail on some of the more common things I work with, however this is not an exhaustive list by any means. Feel free to contact me to find out how hypnotherapy can help you.

Anxiety

“After not ever having any kind of hypnotherapy before I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect at first however after meeting Helen for the first time I knew I had made a good decision. She explained the whole process putting me totally at ease.

Helen is an absolute professional along with being one of the nicest people I have ever met. She has helped me a great deal over our sessions together.

I am now in a much better place with my anxiety than I was before and am now able to deal with things in a different way.

I would not hesitate to contact Helen again in the future if I needed extra help and would highly recommend her services.”
