BSc(Hons)Psych. MPhil.Psych. CRM(Dist.) DHP. HPD. SFH Sup (Hyp). MNCH(Acc). CEO(AfSFH).
I'm an experienced full-time Clinical Hypnotherapist & Psychotherapist working online with individuals from all over the country, and combine my psychological expertise with Solution Focused Hypnotherapy to help you make positive, lasting changes. I'm also qualified to supervise and mentor other therapists and deliver lectures in Hypnotherapy and Health. As a senior therapist, I also hold Accredited membership status with the National Council for Hypnotherapy (MNCH Acc.) and as a result of my passion and success as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist am honoured to have been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH). This is the only professional listing organisation dedicated to Solution Focused Hypnotherapy practitioners (www.afsfh.com).
As well as being a very experienced therapist, I have a professional background in Psychology, Health Psychology and Clinical Research and have been studying brains and behaviour for nearly 25 years (my passion!). My extensive post-graduate research involved exploring the crucial relationships between negative emotional states and their effects on physical health, as well as the influence of our behaviours on changes in our moods, from a psychological, psychopharmacological and neuroscientific perspective.
Clinical Hypnotherapy is an effective way to restore a healthy balance between these relationships for therapeutic benefit, and I've helped many people to overcome their anxiety, fears, stress and low mood, as well as help them to develop healthier habits and behaviours.
I'm passionate about helping others to help themselves, and in empowering clients to make positive changes to their thoughts, feelings and behaviours!
My approach...
Every person I see experiences their struggles differently, and I therefore tailor my approach to the unique needs of every client, ensuring that they receive the best, most appropriate and effective support to help them make the changes they want.
Combining aspects of neuroscience with elements of CBT, NLP and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Solution Focused Hypnotherapy also uses clinical hypnosis to provide an effective approach for encouraging beneficial and lasting changes. It can make a positive difference to the way we react by changing or replacing old, unhelpful patterns of thinking and behaving with more useful ones, enabling us to cope so much better with life's challenges.
Using a wide variety of tools and techniques, I can help you to feel better, but also help you to develop your own skills and strategies for the future, so that you can calmly and confidently deal with whatever the world throws at you.
Change is possible... you don't have to put up with things...
Hypnotherapy can be used to address a wide variety of issues, and I specialise in helping people who are suffering from:

- Stress - chronic and specific (scenario-related or PTSD)
- Confidence issues
- Depression & low mood

There are many things that hypnotherapy can help with, more than can be listed here and in the list at the bottom of this page, so please get in touch if you have any questions or if you would like further information about whether hypnotherapy could be useful for you.
You can also find more information on my website at www.greenhypnotherapy.co.uk.
General information:
I work with clients online via Zoom as this is a very convenient way for clients to attend sessions, without them having to worry about extra commuting or parking costs etc. My clients say that working online is just as effective and enjoyable as working in person, and it means I can also offer greater flexibility in appointment times.
There are many therapists to choose from, so make sure you choose someone who is well qualified, registered and experienced in what you are seeking help for. Also, do check the hypnotherapist is actually professionally registered with organisations they claim to be part of, by checking the online listing with the organisation itself e.g. at www.AfSFH.com for Solution Focused Hypnotherapists.
It's also so important that you feel comfortable and confident with your chosen therapist, and so before booking your Initial consultation & Assessment with me, please feel free to call or email me to have a chat or if you have any questions about hypnosis, hypnotherapy or the process. (You can also contact me via a web-form on my website: Helen Green Hypnotherapy booking form).
Hypnotherapy Initial Consultation & Assessment: The initial consultation and assessment usually lasts around an hour. It's a great opportunity to fully discuss your concerns, for us to get to know each other and for me to explain in detail how hypnotherapy can benefit you, and to answer any other questions you may have. You will also receive a free MP3 that you will be able to use at home, which will help to reinforce the benefits of hypnosis.
To book your initial consultation, please call or text me on 07956 179408. Alternatively, you can email me at: helen@greenhypnotherapy.co.uk
Hypnotherapy follow-up sessions: These are also an hour long and the number of sessions required will vary depending on each person's unique circumstances. This will be discussed during the initial consultation.
***I understand people often have family and work commitments, so can also offer flexible daytime and evening appointments during the week as well as on Saturdays at no extra cost.***
