Hypnotherapy is a powerful psychotherapeutic tool with which we can access the subconscious mind through the use of trance. This allows us to make powerful and lasting positive changes to the way our minds work and the way we experience our world and express ourselves.
Be assured, Clinical Hypnotherapy is entirely different from stage hypnosis, and does not involve the client losing control, quite the reverse, it is used specifically to empower the client by bringing their subconscious into positive alignment with their conscious mind.

What can be better than being relaxed, empowered, confident, motivated, alert, capable and happy?
“Making the most of my life, my gifts and opportunities, enjoying this present moment, undistracted by repetitive worries, criticisms or doubts. I trust myself and my world, focusing on creatively realising my dreams, living every moment deeply and fully, I enjoy sharing life with those who I love and value and those who love and value me.”

Specialisations at The NewMan Practice
I specialise in two particular areas outside the normal services that most hypnotherapists offer, namely:
Teenage Issues: I have developed a course for teenagers and their parents based on the latest neuroscience research. This helps both the parents and their teenagers navigate the difficult years between 12 and 24 during which time the brain goes through a complete rebuild, with different areas of the brain being reassigned to different activities. This short compact course lasting four hours minimum, may be extended for teenagers suffering from issues and symptoms requiring further treatment.
For most teenagers and their parents this course allows them to embark on new positive co-supportive relationships based on new understandings. It is always a delight to see these spontaneous healings take place and know young lives have been changed for the better.
FND and other Psycho-Neurological and Auto-immune Issues such as MS, CFS etc.
FND: I have many years of personal experience caring for someone with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and FND (Functional Neurological Disorder). As a result I have researched these issues deeply over a number of years and have had the opportunity to meet and talk with the leading medical authorities within these fields in the UK.
Issues regarding muscle control, specifically the (lack of) Sense of Agency, (maladaptive) beliefs about control and the attentional “spotlighting” effecting self awareness are all issues important in FND and also are areas which are effected in trance under hypnosis. This means that there are possible avenues for positively effecting the symptoms of FND using trance. Each case of FND manifests uniquely to the individual so this therapy also has to be developed individually.
MS: I have had some success with helping MS sufferers take major steps forward in building stamina and resilience and reducing the psychological impact of this disease and this in turn has been associated with an apparent reduction in the severity of symptoms. This is not totally unexpected when one considers the connection between psychology, the brain, the endocrine and immune systems (as well as, of course, breathing patterns and the gut) which all may play a part in the development of this disease.
