Anxiety Help Near Fortitude Valley

Hypnotherapy from Someone Who Truly Understands

Clive Westwood understands how isolating anxiety can feel. Before becoming a hypnotherapist, he struggled with anxiety that made conversation, eye contact and social situations difficult. He knows the experience of feeling locked inside your own thoughts, stuck on high alert, or unable to move forward because of a freeze response.

Hypnotherapy helped Clive bring positive change to his own life. That is why he has dedicated his career to helping others.

Since 2013, Clive has specialised in anxiety, stress and panic attacks. His work has received multiple awards across two Australian states and has been featured on Today Tonight, 9 News, ABC Radio and 2GB Radio.

Anxiety can affect every part of life

Anxiety is not always obvious to other people. You may still be working, studying and managing responsibilities while internally feeling tense, overwhelmed or unable to switch off.

People seek support for:

  • Constant worry and worst-case thinking

  • Panic attacks or fear of panic symptoms

  • Racing thoughts and overthinking

  • Work stress, burnout and feeling overwhelmed

  • Social anxiety, dating anxiety and fear of judgement

  • Anxiety before meetings, presentations or interviews

  • Sleep anxiety and difficulty relaxing at night

  • Fear of physical anxiety sensations

  • Low confidence and self-doubt

  • Test, university or performance anxiety

  • Specific fears and phobias

Hypnotherapy as complementary anxiety support

Hypnotherapy may support some people with anxiety-related overthinking, stress, relaxation and confidence goals. It is a private, one-to-one process rather than a standard programme.

Depending on what matters to you, sessions may focus on:

  • Feeling calmer before stressful situations

  • Reducing repetitive worry and mental replay

  • Developing a steadier response to anxiety symptoms

  • Feeling more comfortable in social, work or study settings

  • Creating more helpful routines around sleep and relaxation

  • Preparing for a presentation, test, flight, interview or important event

  • Taking manageable steps towards the situations anxiety has been stopping you from doing

You remain aware and in control during hypnosis. There is no pressure to perform and no forced exposure work.

Hypnotherapy does not replace diagnosis, medical treatment, psychological therapy or psychiatric care. If anxiety is severe, persistent or affecting daily life, speak with a GP, psychologist or psychiatrist.
