Certified Hypnotherapist Brisbane

Certified Hypnotherapist Brisbane

Award-Winning Hypnotherapy, Built on Understanding

Clive Westwood has dedicated his work to helping people affected by anxiety, stress and panic attacks since 2013.

His Brisbane practice has received multiple awards across two Australian states. He has also been featured on Today Tonight for anxiety and appeared on 9 News, ABC Radio and 2GB Radio.

Clive’s path into hypnotherapy came through his own experience. He knows how hard anxiety can make it to speak openly, meet someone’s eyes or feel comfortable around people. He understands the relentless thoughts, the physical urgency of fight-or-flight and the feeling of shutting down in a freeze response.

After finding hypnotherapy helpful in his own life, Clive trained as a Certified Clinical hypnotherapist to help others feel calmer, more confident and more able to move forward.

When looking for a certified hypnotherapist in Brisbane, it is sensible to ask about experience, professional membership, approach and whether the practitioner is a good fit for your goals.

Clive Westwood has been practising hypnotherapy since 2013 and is a Clinical Member of the Australian Hypnotherapy Association. He provides calm, private one-to-one hypnotherapy support for adults, teenagers and children in Brisbane and online.

From 1 October 2026, appointments are available at Room 9, Perfect Wellness, 148 Arthur Terrace, Red Hill QLD 4059.

Choosing a hypnotherapist in Brisbane

Hypnotherapy is personal. Beyond qualifications and professional membership, it helps to choose someone who listens, respects your boundaries and tailors sessions to your needs.

Questions worth asking include:

  • How long have you been practising?

  • Are you a member of a recognised professional association?

  • What concerns do you commonly support people with?

  • What happens in a typical session?

  • Will the sessions be tailored to my goals?

  • Can I ask questions before booking?

  • Do you work with children, teenagers or online clients if needed?

  • What support is appropriate if my symptoms are severe or complex?

Clive’s approach is calm, non-judgmental and focused on helping clients feel comfortable from the first conversation.

What happens in a hypnotherapy session?

A private session usually begins with a conversation about what you would like help with and the changes you want to make. Guided hypnosis may then be used to support relaxation, focused attention and your personal goals.

You remain aware and in control during hypnosis. You cannot be made to do anything against your wishes or values, and you can pause or stop at any time.

Hypnotherapy is not stage entertainment or mind control. It is a collaborative, goal-focused process.
