Gentle, effective support for children & teens

Educating and Empowering Families

Why kids hypnotherapy?

Children have powerful imaginations. Hypnotherapy uses relaxed, playful focus to help them build calm, confidence, and healthy habits. Sessions are gentle, collaborative, and designed to feel safe and empowering.

Common areas we support:

  • Bedwetting & nighttime confidence

  • Worries, anxiety, and big feelings

  • Sleep, nightmares & relaxation

  • Confidence & self-esteem

  • School stress, perfectionism, test nerves

  • Habits (nail biting, fidgeting)

  • Emotional regulation & transitions

Every child is different. We tailor sessions to your child’s strengths, sensory needs, and interests.

WHAT A SESSION LOOKS LIKE

Warm, friendly check‑in to build trust

  • Gentle breathing and body‑calming

  • Imagination journeys (stories & metaphors)

  • Confidence anchors (words, colours, gestures)

  • Practical tools for home & school (2–3 minutes a day)

Parents are welcome for the first part of session; we’ll agree on what helps your child feel safest.

SAFETY & ETHICS

Hypnosis for children is gentle, collaborative, and safe. Your child remains aware and in control. We do not make children relive trauma. Where a medical condition is involved (e.g., persistent bedwetting), we recommend ruling out medical causes with your GP first.

FAQS

Will my child remember the session?
Yes. Sessions are interactive and age‑appropriate.

How many sessions?
Most goals see progress within 2–4 sessions. We’ll personalise a plan.

Can parents stay?
Yes. We’ll decide together what helps your child feel safe and confident.

Can I do this from home?

Yes. There are online courses and tools available to do from the comfort of your own home.

Does this replace therapy or medical care?
No. Hypnotherapy complements medical and allied health care. We collaborate where helpful.
