Social Anxiety Brisbane

1. How does hypnotherapy help with social anxiety?

Social anxiety is a pattern created in the subconscious.
Clive’s hypnotherapy gently rewires fear, overthinking, and self-consciousness, allowing you to feel calmer, more confident, and more in control in social situations.

2. Why do I feel anxious around people even when I know I’m safe?

Your subconscious is reacting to old emotional memories — not the present moment.
Hypnosis helps retrain these reactions so your mind stops treating social situations as threats.

3. Can hypnotherapy help with fear of being judged?

Absolutely.
Hypnosis softens the emotional belief that others are watching or judging you, helping you feel more relaxed and natural around people.

4. Why do I overthink every conversation?

Overthinking is your mind attempting to protect you from embarrassment or rejection.
Hypnosis teaches your subconscious that you are safe, allowing your thoughts to calm and flow naturally.

5. Can hypnotherapy help if I avoid social situations?

Yes.
Hypnosis helps release avoidance tendencies and builds emotional courage so you can re-enter social life with confidence and ease.

6. Can hypnotherapy help with physical symptoms like sweating, shaking, or racing heart?

Definitely.
Social anxiety often activates the fight-or-flight system — hypnosis resets these automatic responses so your body stays calm.

7. What if I feel awkward or don’t know what to say?

Hypnosis improves presence, calmness, and comfort, helping conversation feel easier and more natural.

8. Can hypnotherapy help with fear of meeting new people?

Yes.

9. Can hypnotherapy help with group situations or public settings?

Absolutely.
Hypnosis strengthens emotional regulation so being around groups feels less overwhelming and more manageable.

10. What if my social anxiety comes from past experiences like bullying or rejection?

Clive works gently and trauma-informed.
Hypnosis helps release the emotional imprint of those experiences without forcing you to relive them.

11. Can hypnotherapy help with blushing, freezing up, or forgetting words?

Yes.
These are subconscious fear reactions — hypnosis calms the root of the reaction so your body responds more confidently.

12. Can hypnotherapy help me stop comparing myself to others?

Definitely.
Hypnosis rebuilds inner worth and emotional grounding so comparison loses its power.

13. What if my social anxiety is tied to low self-esteem?

Hypnosis strengthens self-worth, identity, and positive internal dialogue, which naturally reduces social anxiety.

14. Can hypnotherapy help with confidence at work or school?

Absolutely.
Whether it’s meetings, classrooms, presentations, or social interactions, hypnosis helps you stay calm, assertive, and present.

15. Will hypnotherapy make me suddenly outgoing?

No — you stay yourself.
Hypnosis simply removes fear so your natural confidence and personality can come through.

16. Does online hypnotherapy work well for social anxiety?

Yes — often even better.
Many clients feel safer and more relaxed at home, allowing deeper hypnotic changes.

17. Can hypnotherapy help with fear of public speaking?

Definitely.
Hypnosis calms performance fear, sharpens focus, and strengthens your inner voice so you speak clearly and confidently.

18. Why do I feel confident in some situations and terrified in others?

Different social triggers activate different subconscious memories.
Hypnosis stabilises confidence across all situations.

Never.
Clive offers a deeply supportive, compassionate environment where you’re understood and accepted exactly as you are.
