For more than a decade, Clive has provided calm, private one-to-one hypnotherapy support for people who feel trapped in worry, panic, overthinking, stress, fears or low confidence. His work has also been featured on 9 News, ABC Radio and 2GB Radio.

Hypnotherapy support in Brisbane

Clive Westwood has been practising hypnotherapy since 2013 and is a Clinical Member of the Australian Hypnotherapy Association. Sessions are tailored to your goals, experiences and pace in a private, non-judgmental setting.

People seek support for:

• Anxiety, constant worry and racing thoughts

• Stress, burnout and overwhelm

• Panic attacks and fear of panic sensations

• Overthinking and rumination

• Social anxiety, shyness and fear of judgement

• Confidence and self-belief

• Fears and phobias

• Sleep anxiety and difficulty switching off

• Public speaking, exams, driving tests and performance pressure

A featured approach built around the individual

There is no one-size-fits-all session. Clive takes time to understand what has been happening, what you want to change and what support feels manageable for you.

You remain aware and in control during hypnosis. It is not mind control or entertainment hypnosis. The process uses guided relaxation, focused attention and therapeutic suggestion to support your personal goals.

Important information about stress, anxiety and depression

Hypnotherapy may be complementary support for goals such as relaxation, overthinking, stress and confidence. It does not replace medical treatment, psychological therapy, psychiatric care or diagnosis.

If you are experiencing persistent anxiety, depression, panic, trauma symptoms or thoughts of self-harm, speak with a GP, psychologist or psychiatrist. If you are in immediate danger or experiencing a mental-health crisis, call Triple Zero (000) or contact an appropriate crisis support service.

allow yourself to relax before using repetitive mantras to break the negative thought cycle when they're in that safe State that's when you put in these suggestions into the subconscious mind you just wake up and you're like what just happened and then you don't have any fear or anything all your anxiety is gone it's worked for Manuel and now with his new found confidence he's even taken some flying lessons for a short time I want to become a pilot um I love flying now other clients of Clive's have also reported success with the treatment including former Mr World Australia turned modeling agent Nick kennet I broken door smashed windows and I got strapped into a hospital bed um got cops came and everything like that he says the hypnotherapy has helped him overcome his anger and anxiety you're actually wanting to do it your thoughts going all right this is helpful so it's constantly just reminding you what to do and it just keeps you going while former Beauty And The Geek Star Marlon D hoie sought help from Clive when his anxiety was holding back his acting career the more rejections I got the worse it became it was like a cumulative knock-on effect and I realized quite soon that you know if I continued in this manner it was going to adversely affect my career and he no longer shies away from the spotlight I was surprised at the the effectiveness of it that something as simple as positive uh message and a reorganizing of your mindset through talking could really have that much of an impact but psychologist Sue stepanovic warns hypnotherapy isn't a cure hypnosis in itself is not a treatment it's a set of tools it's a collection of tools it's a collection of techniques she says in her experience hypnotherapy can help but needs to be done in conjunction with counseling from a psychologist when hypnotherapy or hypnosis is added to the standard psychological treatment um such as for example cognitive behavioral treatment which is the evidence-based treatment for psychological difficulties then we find that adding hypnosis to the standard psychological treatment makes the treatment much more effective while nothing replaces the advice of your doctor especially if you're on medication it's important that they continue to use their medication appropriately in a way that is prescribed by their GP or their psychiatrist
