Hypnotherapy for Stress

Stress is a symptom of modern life that affects many people at some point in their lives, particularly stress related to relationships or work.

Recognising the impact of stress on your life is the first step towards effectively managing it. Stress can manifest in various ways, affecting your mood, behavior, and physical health. Understanding that stress is often a result of how you perceive and respond to situations can empower you to take control of your mental state and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

While short-term stress may be triggered by specific circumstances and subside once those circumstances change, chronic stress can persist and have long-lasting effects on your well-being. This is especially true for situations like work-related stress or dealing with ongoing challenges such as a loved one’s illness.

Managing stress involves more than just addressing the immediate stressors; it requires learning new ways of coping and responding to life’s challenges. By recognising the signs of stress and implementing effective strategies, you can mitigate its impact on your mental and physical health.

Common symptoms of stress include mood changes, sleep disturbances, lack of energy or motivation, changes in appetite, and difficulties with concentration and decision-making. These symptoms can vary from person to person and may worsen over time if left unaddressed.

It’s essential to address stress in a proactive manner to prevent it from escalating and causing further harm. Hypnotherapy offers a solution focused approach to stress management, helping individuals develop coping skills, resilience, and a positive mindset.

Through hypnotherapy, you can learn relaxation techniques, mindfulness practices and strategies to reframe negative thought patterns and manage stress more effectively. By addressing the underlying causes of stress and building resilience, you can create lasting changes that enhance your overall well-being.

At Mulberry Hypnotherapy, we specialize in helping individuals overcome stress and regain control of their lives. Our tailored hypnotherapy sessions are designed to address your specific needs and empower you to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.

Don’t let stress hold you back from living your best life. With the right support and strategies, you can overcome stress and cultivate a greater sense of peace, balance, and fulfillment.

“Hi Anna,

So i just wanted to touch base with you on how J’s doing now, as its been a couple of months and we have seen some very positive response from the therapy you gave him.

He had various issues travelling in the car and also being able to relax and unwind in the evenings.

This has now practically gone and he’s a lot better at all the things than he was before, his anxiety is at an all time low, he says he feels it there but is able to control and master his nerves a lot better than before.

We were at a very bad stage prior to his treatment but i can honestly say things are a lot better than before so it was well worth the 12 week plan, and also to say thanks to you for doing this for us.

This was something i was not a great believer in prior to the therapy but we have seen great / huge changes in his behaviour, he also still listens to your audio every night and has never missed a night since.

Thanks again and wishing you all the very best S (J’s dad)”

“To Anna,

I wanted to say thank you for all your help over the past few months.

You have made things I thought would be impossible now easy things to do.

You have given me hope in that I now get to enjoy things with friends and family again.

Thank you!
CB”

“Hi Anna, happy new year! Hope you are well.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help, the sessions made such a difference! The plane journey went so well and was actually enjoyable! I can now say I look forward to flying

Thank you so much,
Emily x”

“Having worked in caravan parks during my early 20s I was a little dubious about hypnosis after seeing holiday makers hop on one foot at the command of the entertainer!

However, during my initial consultation we discussed how self destructive behaviour was affecting my life, my relationships and my mental health. Anna told me she will be able to help me (and that I definitely wouldn’t be hopping on one leg on command!)

I’m so happy I decided to trust Anna and the process. I can’t divulge too much information but I can say that so many aspects of my life have changed for the better!

My sleeping patterns have changed; in that I fall asleep almost straight away, I sleep soundly and deeply, then I wake up feeling rested and ready for the day ahead, my anxiety and OCD has reduced significantly, I no longer binge and my confidence has soared. There have been so many ways that this therapy has helped me and I cannot recommend Mulberry Hypnotherapy enough!

I always look forward to my sessions.

As a therapist Anna is incredibly supportive, she is patient, non-judgmental and understanding. Thank you Anna, you have literally undone years of self neglect.

My advice is: If you are struggling, make *you* a priority and book your initial consultation right away ☺️“

“Hi Anna

Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. We really appreciate it and owe you a great deal after the many difficult years we have had with this constipation issue.

I certainly will keep up with the night time listening.

Best wishes, Rachel and Fearne.”

Rachel and Fearne (aged 5)

“Having tried everything to break a habit that I’ve had for over 35 years, I contacted Anna at Mulberry Hypnotherapy, who after the initial free consultation said she thought it would take between 8-12 sessions.

It took 9.

Can’t fault her service, style, approachability and genuine desire to fix the issue. I also can’t recommend her highly enough.

Drop her a line, it will probably be the change you’re looking for.”

Claire

“I came to Anna because I had an underlying level of anxiety (probably from 25+ years as a teacher, the effects of the pandemic and a recent significant bereavement), and I am so glad I did.

Anna explained fully how the process would work and explained the way anxiety affects the brain and body, and we got to work.

Listening to a nighttime audio and then having weekly sessions over a couple of months and then moving to less frequent sessions, I quickly found that my anxiety was waning and, by session seven, it had gone completely.

Anna is personable, puts you at ease, and takes you through the process in a calm and relaxing way. It is like an hour spent with a friend, even though she is professional throughout.

I would highly recommend hypnotherapy and Anna to anyone who needs to get themselves from operating in their ‘chimp brain’ and back on an even keel.

It is without doubt the best investment I’ve ever made in myself.

Thank you, Anna, for guiding me through such a transformative process. I’m like my old self again – and that is priceless.”

Nancy

“I have been working with Anna for a few months on several things relating to my mental health (including BPD/PTSD management, improving terrible sleep patterns, moving on to phobias).
Anna has been patient, kind and is very skilled at helping people. She is easy to open up to and has a wonderfully calming manner.
Wednesday nights are the highlight of my week- I always sleep better after my sessions (although I sleep much better overall), I have learned valued techniques to manage anxiety and stress much better and will be forever grateful for the help she has given me.
Thank you Anna, you really have helped me change my life ? xx”

Mel

“Anna at Mulberry Hypnotherapy is excellent. I came to Mulberry Hypnotherapy after experiencing a level of anxiety and difficulty sleeping. The support I have received has been personalised to my needs, and my ability to fall asleep peacefully and quickly has hugely improved, which has improved my quality of life. In addition, my “wellness score” has increased since using this service and my confidence has noticeably improved. Thank you Anna!”

Tanya

“Working with Anna has been such a help as well as a pleasure. She is kind but professional, patient and perceptive, helping me to worry less and sleep better which is quite an achievement! Slowly but surely I have made progress and I look forward to my appointments with Anna. She is charming, personable and skilled at helping people. I recommend her without reservation and have already done so. Thank you, Anna.”

Pat

“Anna has really listened to me and helped me to understand my issues with negative thinking and anxiety. Thanks to her suggestions I’m learning to change my mindset and to think more positively.
Anna is caring, friendly and compassionate and I can highly recommend her as a therapist.”

Heather

“I have been seeing Anna for 4 months now and it has honestly been one of the best things I have ever done. My wellness score started out pretty low and I was quite depressed at the time. Since having treatment with Anna, my wellness score has increased substantially and my overall mental health and well-being has also improved as a result. I have a variety of issues ranging from phobia to anxiety. Anna always makes me feel safe during our sessions and I look forward to my relaxation. Having a night time audio to listen to makes it much easier for me to fall asleep now, whether it’s at initial bed time or when I awake throughout the night. My anxiety has become much more manageable now I use the techniques Anna has taught me to help ground myself and calm myself down if I do feel it coming on.
Highly recommend Anna at Mulberry Hypnotherapy.”

Nic

“Anna has been helping me manage my spider phobia. After 6 very relaxing zoom sessions I feel more confident in getting on with my day without the need to keep checking everywhere for signs of life! Anna made our sessions very comfortable – her voice is extremely soothing. I also listen to her night time audio at bedtime which also helps as I do struggle to get a decent nights sleep.
Thanks Anna for all you have done – I won’t hesitate in contacting you if help is needed again.”

Sue

“I’ve been having hypnotherapy with Anna to help ease my tension and stress caused by menopause. I was given a recording to listen to whilst settling down to sleep, as yet I haven’t managed to stay awake until the end of the recording, it’s helping no end with my anxiety, I’m feeling a lot calmer and able to relax my body and mind.
Anna is very professional in her approach with great techniques.
The results are brilliant and continues daily to help relieve my symptoms.
I would highly recommend Anna”

Lotty

“I’m so very lucky to have been chosen by Anna to help with her hypnotherapy course. She has helped me enormously over these past few months particularly with my sleeping-or lack of it! She has also helped me to recognise that when I’m feeling stressed it might well be about me lacking in confidence.
Her voice is so soothing and measured. Just listening to her for five minutes my stress levels go down. I listen each night to the audio session she sent to me. I would hate to be without it now.
So I thank Anna so much for all her help and support.”

Marie

“I have tried many ways to quit vaping after going through 2 dispodable elf bars per day for years and prior to vaping smoking 30 per day since i was 15 i thought there was no way i would ever be able to quit. I heard a friend say their dad quit through hypnotherapy so thought i would give it a go. At first i was skeptical and messaged Anna she was very honest and said it was not going to be like waving a wand and i will never want to vape again but it can help a lot as an aid to quitting so i decided to give it a go as a i was spending over £300 per month on vapes so if it worked then the cost of 1 session would be a no brainer. I arrived at the venue and was grerted by Anna who was so friendly and really put me at ease. She was understanding and answered any concerns i had after i woke up i felt like a vape but something in my head stopped me it does not sound a lot but this was 12 days a go and since i left Annas studio i have been 100% nicotine and vape free for the first time in 17 years. It was hard at first and still early days but day to day stresses and moments when i feel like saying F it and buying a vape something in my head just stops me and gets me through the cravings thanks so much Anna you have done something for me which i never thought was possible not carrying around vapes like they are a life line i would highly recommend to anyone”
