Yes. Allow yourself to be surprised! Even people who tell themselves ‘it won’t work’ are surprised by the power of suggestion. You will know it has worked when you observe your behaviour changing in a way in which you want. Hypnosis and in particular Rapid Transformational Therapy has worked and continues to work for thousands of people just like you. It is simple, effective and proven.

No. You remain fully aware and in control throughout the session. Hypnosis is a state of heightened focus, similar to being deeply absorbed in a book or movie.

Most people can enter a hypnotic state, as long as they are willing and open to the process. Those who actively resist or have trouble relaxing may take longer to experience deep hypnosis.

It feels like a deeply relaxed and focused state, similar to daydreaming. Some people feel light and floaty, while others feel heavy and deeply relaxed.

Yes, hypnotherapy is a natural and safe process. It has been used for decades to help with stress, confidence, weight loss, menopause symptoms, and more.

If you come to the session with one issue, chances are you will only require 1-3 sessions. If it turns out that your issue is more complex and actually involves resolving or working through several issues, then you may require further sessions. As your therapist, Venetia will always be clear with you about which issue to tackle first and how long she believes your recovery will take. *Please note long-term depression and anxiety can take several sessions.

Yes! Hypnotherapy is highly effective for hot flash relief, hormonal balance, weight management, better sleep, and emotional wellbeing.

Yes, hypnosis helps retrain the subconscious mind to support healthier eating habits, reduce cravings, and boost motivation for long-term weight management.

You will always return to full awareness naturally. Hypnosis is simply a deep state of relaxation—you can wake up anytime you choose.

Online hypnotherapy is just as effective as in-person sessions. You join via Zoom or video call, relax in a quiet space, and follow guided hypnosis in the comfort of your home.

No, you will always be in control. As your hypnotherapist, Venetia can only offer suggestions for consideration – you are the one who decides whether to accept these suggestions or not. Even when hypnotised, a part of the human mind acts as an “observer”, which monitors the process to ensure you are in control of your actions. Your mind will not allow you to do anything that is against your values or ethics, or to disclose anything you do not want to talk about. You still have ultimate control.

Absolutely! All clients are assured of confidentiality about any disclosed material, in accordance with professional codes of ethics. Venetia will not contact any other practitioners or doctors without your permission. Venetia destroys inactive files after three years, so that she can assure her clients total confidentiality. None of your personal information will be kept on-site or be accessible in Venetia’s office.

You are in complete control during hypnosis and if you don’t wish to share something, you won’t – no matter how hard anyone tries to get you to say it out loud (which Venetia would never do).

5 years to 105 years – although clients under 18 are on a case by case basis. It’s important to note that no matter what your age is, Venetia’s highest priority is to address your needs (i.e. the client’s needs) in any given session. When it comes to children, these needs often differ from parental priorities.

Hypnotherapy is not suitable for individuals with a history of seizures, epilepsy, or related conditions unless approved by a licensed medical professional. If you experience seizures, please consult your doctor before pursuing hypnotherapy. Your safety and wellbeing are my top priority.
