Alison Fernandes

I am a BWRT® psychotherapist, EMDR with hypnosis practitioner, counsellor and hypnotherapist.  I offer therapy services to clients, including both solution-focused and analytical hypnotherapy in Cheltenham, Bristol and Tewkesbury.

I am a member of the General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR) and of the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).  I am qualified to offer support for fertility issues and regression/past life regression.  I work predominantly with clients who experience stress, anxiety, fear, poor self-image, lack of confidence and unwanted behaviours.  I also offer support for weight loss, smoking cessation and couples counselling.

I usually see clients at The Practice Rooms in Cheltenham (evenings and weekends) or in Clifton, Bristol (weekends).  However, please note that for the duration of the present coronavirus crisis I am seeing clients by Skype or Zoom only. Please contact me to have an initial chat.

During our initial free of charge telephone call I will discuss with you the background to your situation and assess whether I am the appropriate professional to offer you support.  This call will normally take around half an hour and by the end of the call we will have agreed on whether to go ahead with an appointment.  I will answer any questions you may have about therapy and explain to you what is involved.

I provide a non-judgemental and relaxed environment in which you can fully explore and discuss the issue you have sought help for and we work together to bring about positive change for the future.  While some issues can be dealt with in only a few sessions, it can take longer to fully resolve long term emotional and psychological issues.  It is important to be committed to achieving the outcome you want.
