Alison Gardner

Welcome to my practice. I am a Solution Focus Hypnotherapist, a member of the National Council for Hypnotherapists (NCH) and the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AsFSH). Membership of these associations means I adhere to a strict code of ethics.

Prior to deciding to train as a Hypnotherapist, I had a long career in industry living all over the world and became interested in hypnotherapy after experiencing some of its many benefits for myself to overcome stress associated with my profession. Realising its potential to help other people is what has led me to retrain in this area since I am settled at home in Devon.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is a modern therapy, backed by neuroscience, which combines NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) techniques. It is forward thinking and helps you remove old unwanted habits and patterns of behaviour and creates new neural pathways, allowing you to make positive lasting changes to your life.

Hypnotherapy is effective in improving many areas including: Anxiety, Stress related illness, OCD, Quit smoking/Vaping, Weight management, Sports performance, Confidence issues, Exam stress, Social Anxiety, Insomnia, Stage fright, and many other areas

I offer a free initial consultation to give you the opportunity to consider if this therapy is for you. In our initial session we discuss the areas of your life you would like to improve, and I will take you through the process and explain the neuroscience behind the workings of the brain in a easily understandable format.

Through one-to-one sessions and workshops, I look forward to supporting you in any areas of your life you would like support or coaching.
