Matt Hemsley

As a Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist, I will help you to overcome emotional and physical challenges by combining talking therapy with clinical hypnosis.

The solution focused approach does not analyse or dwell on the past. The emphasis is on enabling you to focus on your goals and your preferred future.

Using neuroscience-based techniques, Solution Focused Hypnotherapy helps calm the nervous system, reduce anxiety, and promote positive thinking. Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention where the mind becomes more receptive to positive ideas and suggestions. In this deeply relaxed state, the subconscious mind is accessed more easily - the part of the mind that shapes how emotions and memories are processed. Working at this deeper level the subconscious mind gently shifts unhelpful thinking patterns and supports the development of a more positive, future-orientated outlook.

Professional background

I have 25 years of clinical experience as a Mental Health Nurse, including leadership roles in both the NHS and private healthcare. I am also an accredited Life Coach.

I subsequently trained with the highly regarded SFTA Hypnotherapy Training Academy to become a qualified Solution Focused Clinical Hypnotherapist. My work is grounded in compassion, professionalism and evidence-based practice. I combine extensive mental health experience with Solution Focused Hypnotherapy techniques to help clients create positive and meaningful changes to their lives. I have many years’ experience of delivering short, medium, and long term, goal-setting work using a solution focused approach, incorporating CBT techniques. I have a wealth of experience supporting clients with anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, and reduced confidence. I have, and continue to enable clients to find purpose, fulfilment, and meaning in their lives.
