Hypnotherapy is classed as a complementary therapy that uses hypnosis (an altered and natural state of consciousness) to help people make positive emotional, behavioural and/or physical changes within themselves.
It is a completely safe process that has no harmful side effects.
Our hypnotherapist here at Action First, Rebecca Donoghue, is a fully qualified and experienced hypnotherapy practitioner registered with both the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (an authoritative national body committed to maintaining standards in hypnotherapy) and the Complimentary and Natural Healthcare Council (set up with government support to protect the public by providing a UK voluntary register of complementary therapists).
She has helped hundreds of clients to make positive changes to their lives, including overcoming debilitating anxiety when many other interventions have failed.

Whatever the issue, hypnotherapy sessions with Rebecca could help you to make the positive changes you are looking for.
Self-esteem, Low Mood, Anxiety
Rebecca has, quite literally changed my life! I’ve had hypnotherapy for one hour a week for 8 weeks and in that time I’ve learned to respect and like myself again and I’ve rediscovered the happy, confident me that I used to know many, many years ago....I now don’t dwell on bad experiences or memories from years ago. I’m looking forwards with renewed energy and happiness rather than looking back at hurtful things I can’t change....I’m also now able to deal with things one at a time instead of being bombarded by ‘stuff’ that overwhelms me and causes me so much stress. It really is quite incredible how light and happy I feel now, no longer weighed down by anxiety and self-loathing...I really couldn’t recommend Rebecca highly enough. Mind blowing and life changing.

Weight control
I came to see Rebecca because my emotional and obsessive eating habits were totally out of control. I felt really down, my confidence and self-esteem were low and I had a very negative outlook about what I was capable of. Now, after just six sessions, I feel completely different. I have regained control of why eat, I feel much more motivated to exercise and I am more positive about my ability to lose weight. I'm also so much more relaxed and feeling in control of life in general and how I handle situations that I used to find challenging. It's been a very positive experience and I'm so happy I decided to have the therapy.

Fear of Flying
Over the past few years I had developed a fear of flying despite travelling on planes many times before. I didn't feel that I could fly again but went to see Rebecca at RD Hypnotherapy for help....Following my visits to Rebecca, together with the specific meditations she provided, I was astounded that I was able to fly away on holiday with my family. Before going to RD Hypnotherapy, I didn't believe I would ever fly again. The process was a complete success and I can't thank Rebecca enough for what has been an incredible transformation, allowing me to overcome a debilitating fear.

Anxiety and self esteem
I have recently had such an incredible experience with Rebecca.
I went to see Rebecca with an extensive list of things I wanted to work on. Mainly a lifetime of negative self image and low self esteem....She definitely worked her magic. Tailoring each session to work on a different part of my issues. I managed to return to work and start to feel like myself again within a month. I have thrown myself into all of the things she has asked me to do between sessions, and I genuinely believe the combination of that, and the incredible sessions have completely changed my life for the better.
I can’t thank her enough, as there aren’t enough words to do it justice!
