CLINICAL & TRAUMA-INFORMED HYPNOTHERAPY
“Free your mind. Rewire limiting beliefs. Release trauma responses.”
At NEKAWA, hypnotherapy is far more than just a tool for change – it’s a transformative, body-aware experience. I integrate clinical and trauma-informed techniques to guide you safely into your subconscious, supporting nervous system regulation to develop deep, lasting shifts.
Whether you or your child / loved one is struggling with persistent negative thought patterns, emotional overwhelm, or seeking to unlock your / their full potential, hypnosis can serve as a powerful catalyst for clarity, calm, and personal transformation.
At NEKAWA, my hypnotherapy approach isn’t about scripts or stage tricks. It’s a deeply personal and empowering process, grounded in neuroscience, compassion, and your body’s innate ability to heal.
My Journey With Hypnosis
I came to hypnosis after years of trying to silence the constant chatter in my own mind. Meditation, mindfulness… they helped, but it wasn’t until I experienced clinical hypnotherapy that I truly felt present.
This work helped me quiet the inner noise, stop second-guessing and reconnect with clarity and calm. Now, I guide others through the same process - helping you release the subconscious patterns that hold you back, so you can think freely, feel better and move forward with confidence.
What Is Hypnosis?
“Gentle. Effective. Transformational.”
Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention - the same one you dip into when you're daydreaming, lost in music, or in a creative flow. It’s not mind control, and you're always fully aware and in charge.
Children live in a near-constant state of hypnosis until the age of 7, which is why those early years shape our lifelong habits and beliefs. The good news? You can reprogram those patterns - gently and effectively - at any age.
A Trauma-Informed, Body-Aware Approach
Many clients come to me with symptoms of stress, anxiety, past trauma, or patterns they can’t quite shake. Rather than rehash painful memories, we work gently with the nervous system -tuning into how the body holds onto stress and using hypnotic techniques to unhook those reactions.
This isn’t about forgetting the past; it’s about releasing its grip on the present. Sessions are grounded, empowering, and always guided at your pace.

Session Details
Sessions are outcome-focused, not time-based.
At Nekawa, the length of your session is tailored to the work we need to do together. Whether it’s a quick release of a specific issue or deeper, more transformational work, we’ll focus on achieving your desired outcome, not rushing through the clock.
Sessions typically range from 60 to 90 minutes, with the flexibility to adjust as needed.
Working with Teens: Building Inner Strength in a Changing World
Adolescence can be a turbulent time — emotionally, socially, and physically. At NEKAWA, I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for teens to explore and understand their inner world, build resilience, and access tools for meaningful change.
Using trauma-informed hypnotherapy, I work with young people navigating:
-
Anxiety and overwhelm
-
Behavioural challenges and emotional dysregulation
-
Disordered eating and body image struggles
-
Addictive behaviours, including gaming or screen overuse
-
Low self-esteem, social stress, or fear of failure
Rather than pathologising their experience, I meet each teen where they’re at — helping them strengthen self-awareness, emotional regulation, and confidence. Hypnotherapy offers a powerful tool for growth, giving young people strategies they can carry with them into adulthood.
Whether it’s unravelling anxious thought patterns, easing internal pressure, or building new neural pathways for healthier habits, this work is always collaborative, compassionate, and led by their readiness.

You don’t need to be ‘fixed’. You just need the space to let go of what no longer serves you—and the right support to step into who you really are.

Other Hypnotherapy services at Nekawa:
This is a program in which I work with the client’s restrictions both physically and via hypnosis to release blockages. From there we can help to free the mind, body and spirit of the mental chat that holds them back and progress onto weekly goal setting focussed on future planning.
Emotional release weight loss program
Having spent many years working with clients who did not reach their goals however hard they worked, I learnt a lot about emotional blockages that permanently hindered progress. These blocks could have tiny triggers from childhood or larger triggers related to loss of loved ones, traumatic events and PTSD. This weight loss program tackles these obstacles to release these hidden barriers and support the client in reaching their desired weight.
Another magical process of treating your pets with hypnosis using you as a surrogate. Focuses on traumatic events that they may have experienced that unsettled them.
