I work with anxiety, emotional eating, insomnia, smoking, and phobias, using Hypno-CBT. The aim isn’t to have you relying on me. It’s to give you skills you can use on your own, long after the sessions finish.
Hypno-CBT combines cognitive behavioural therapy, which works on your thoughts and habits, with hypnosis, which helps the change settle in at a deeper level. It’s the approach behind every session I run.
That persistent hum of worry. The racing thoughts that arrive uninvited. I know this from the inside, and use Hypno-CBT to help you retrain it.
Emotional eating isn’t about willpower. If you eat when you’re not hungry and can’t explain why, you’re soothing feelings with food. I lived this myself for years.
Patches, gum, and willpower share the same weakness: they deal with the cigarette, not why you reach for one. I quit with stop smoking hypnotherapy myself.
Insomnia rarely looks the same twice, but it’s nearly always a racing mind that won’t switch off, and an evening routine working against you.
A phobia is a fear that has learned to trigger faster than thought. Hypno-CBT works on what keeps the fear going, gradually and at your pace, so the response has a chance to settle.
EXCELLENT Based on 6 reviews Posted on Google Genie SmartTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started hypnotherapy as l was at my wits end with insomnia. It was so bad l once slept through my alarm and kept a coachload of people waiting in London to go to the Chelsea Flower Show. Kath gently taught me some sleep hygiene tips such as keeping and using my makeup removal stuff out of the bedroom into my bathroom. Decluttering my bedroom to make it a haven for sleep. Listening to Kath's mediation tapes for relaxation and to also help with pain. Now l drop off to sleep easily. The quality of my sleep has improved hugely. I've got more energy. Thankyou Kath. I intend to return for more hypnotherapy to reduce my craving for sweet things and to lose weight.Posted on Google Simon WorthingtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kath is an exceptionally gifted and phenomenal therapist in all aspects of her practice/ I loved every minute of her insights. She is very soothing and discerning all the times. I would never hesitate to recommend her. She has a very soothing voice and she makes you feel very comfortable throughout. Thanks so much Kath for changing my life for the better. !Posted on Google Molly DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I never imagined I could be free from my emetophobia (phobia of vomiting) it felt like something I would have to live with forever. But Kathy’s soft, comforting voice and compassionate approach made me feel completely safe and supported. Her hypnotherapy is truly transformative, fears I thought would always control me gradually melted away with every session. Now, I can travel, eat at any restaurant, and live my life without panic or fear holding me back. Kathy hasn’t just helped me overcome a phobia, she’s given me back my freedom, my confidence, and my life. I’m endlessly grateful to her and couldn’t recommend her enough!❤️Posted on Google Perran BatemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kath has helped me on my journey of weight loss and fitness, after many years of struggling with my weight and diet. She used Hypnotherapy and CBT on me to help me understand myself better and root causes of my struggles with emotional eating. This awareness that I was blind to helped me to make the changes and learn new skills that I can use for the rest of my life. Also her experience as a personal trainer helped me with my fitness and health. I have lost over 30lb so far, and my health has improved so much ! I have thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and now using self hypnosis,I would recommend Kath at cbthypnotherapy.com to anyone who has struggled with weight and fitness.Posted on Google Elaine BrewertonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had an amazing ongoing experience with Kathy. For sometime I have had an increasing fear of travelling by car, which was beginning to affect mine and my husband’s life. I was reluctant to travel any distance, becoming stressed and constantly telling my husband to be careful, stay back and breaking and shouting out. Kathy listened to my fears,and in a calm and reassuring way has helped me face my fears. I listen to my recordings weekly and have recently travelled to Devon on 303 and motorway. I was much more comfortable and relaxed in the car and enjoyed the journey! I will continue to consult with Kathy and listen to my recordings weekly. Kathy explains everything in a calm clear and professional way. I really enjoy listening to the recordings and the feeling of calm and confidence they give me. Thank you Kathy for my new found freedom.Posted on Google Beata RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had therapy with Kath to address my struggles with binge/emotional eating and the experience has been eye opening. From the very first session she explained the important difference between binge and emotional eating in a clear way. That alone helped me better understand my own habits. Kath is incredibly professional,kind and an attentive listener. I felt comfortable opening up to her and i didnt feel judged at all. She helped me realise that my eating habits were not really about food,but were triggered by life stressors that I hadn't fully acknowledged. That alone was very transformative. The therapy motivated me to make decisions to tackle other issues in my life. I know i am at the beginning of my journey, but Kath gave me practical tools to work with. She also created personalised recordings for me which i continue to listen to and find very calming and grounding After being stuck for quite some time i have finally started to slowly shift some of the stubborn weight. It feels like real lasting change rather than a quick fix I highly recommend Kath to anyone who feels stuck in unhealthy eating patterns and is ready to explore emotional layers underneath
