  • School anxiety or school refusal

  • Separation anxiety

  • Social anxiety, shyness or fear of judgment

  • Panic attacks or fear of panic sensations

  • Worrying, overthinking and racing thoughts

  • Fear of teachers, presentations or speaking in class

  • Bullying-related worries

  • Nail biting, hair pulling, skin picking or other unwanted habits

  • Sports confidence and performance nerves

Clive has a particular interest in anxiety, panic attacks, overthinking and phobias. These concerns can affect a child’s confidence, school life, friendships, sleep and willingness to try new things.

A supportive approach for parents and young people

The aim is to help your child or teenager feel safer, more capable and more confident in dealing with the situations that are troubling them.

A parent or guardian is involved in the booking process and can discuss the concern before the appointment. The session is adapted to the young person, using language and strategies that are appropriate for their age and understanding.

Hypnotherapy does not involve touch, medication or any physical procedure. Young people remain aware and can ask questions throughout.

Frequently asked questions

Can hypnotherapy help children with anxiety?

Hypnotherapy may help children work on anxiety, worry, confidence and coping skills in a calm, age-appropriate way. Sessions are tailored to the individual child and the situations they find difficult.

Can hypnotherapy help teenagers with anxiety and overthinking?

Many teenagers experience pressure from school, friendships, social media, family life and expectations about the future. Hypnotherapy may support them with anxiety, overthinking, self-confidence and emotional regulation.

Can hypnotherapy help with school anxiety?

Some children and teenagers seek support for fear of school, separation worries, presentations, exams, teachers or social situations. The session can focus on the specific situations causing distress and the confidence they would like to build.

Can hypnotherapy help with fears and phobias in children?

Hypnotherapy may be used to help a child work on fears such as vomiting, dogs, needles, storms, school, sleeping alone or speaking in front of others. Each situation is approached at the child’s pace.

Will my child be asleep or out of control?

No. Hypnosis is not sleep and your child remains aware. They can hear what is being said, ask questions and remain in control throughout the session.

Does a parent need to attend?

A parent or legal guardian is involved in arranging the appointment for a child or teenager. The best arrangement for the appointment can be discussed beforehand, with consideration for the young person’s age, comfort and needs.

How many sessions will my child need?

The number of sessions varies depending on the concern, the child’s circumstances and their response to the work. No outcome or number of sessions can be guaranteed.

Are online appointments available for children and teenagers?

Online appointments may be available for suitable circumstances. Please enquire to discuss whether an online session is appropriate for your child or teenager.

Are reviews and testimonials available?

Yes. Google reviews and video testimonials from real clients are available to view. Every young person and situation is different, so testimonials are not a guarantee of a particular result.

Individual results vary, and no outcome can be guaranteed.
