I’ve been working with Kim for a few weeks now but even in that short time, I've noticed marked improvements in my day-to-day life. I’m sleeping better, I have better-eating patterns, I’ve lost weight and I generally have a more positive outlook on life.

For years, I have been under the impression that my problem was medical and can only be resolved by surgery....Until I met Kim... She is well worth every minute and penny.

“If anyone is struggling with anything, I highly recommend Kim Sweetland.

She has helped me no end with my grief and getting my head into the right place to stay in the same job for nearly a year .

I was definitely someone who wasn't sure if talking and crystals would be for me but I was wrong !!! And I didn't see any crystals !!! If I feel myself slipping I can go back and have a top up .

Don't be afraid of what you don't know - you might be surprised."

Becky

"I was more than a little nervous, anxious and somewhat sceptical.

I’ve struggled with Anxiety for what seems like my whole life...From my first meeting with Kim my nerves vanished – she was empathic, kind and reassuring. I am 6 sessions into my treatment and I can honestly say I am like a different person or the person I was before anxiety came to haunt me. I sleep better, I make better decisions, the anxiety is under control and my relationship is better, I am happier....

Kim will never know how much she has helped me.....

Thank you Kim"

Hannah

"I had my stop smoking hypnosis a month ago now and I’m delighted to say I haven’t gone near it again. Nor will I.

Kim was absolutely wonderful. She was friendly, totally put me at ease......It’s been such a game-changer. I still have to remind myself that I’m not a smoker........I honestly believe that without Kim I would never have got out of my rut. I couldn’t be more grateful. What’s more, cigarettes are so expensive that it’s almost paid for itself already.

If you want to quit and you feel like you just need a bit of help, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kim.”

Your questions answered

What's the science behind Hypnotherapy?

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (SFH) is a modern, evidence-based approach that combines many leading techniques to create positive change. Rather than focusing on past problems, SFH encourages you to build on your strengths and move towards your desired future. This approach is supported by neuroscience, which shows that hypnosis can help shift brainwave activity from high-alert beta waves to more relaxed alpha and theta states. In these states, the brain is more open to suggestion, allowing for the creation of new neural pathways that reinforce positive thought patterns and behaviours. SFH is particularly effective for reducing anxiety, stress, depression and their many related symptoms by engaging the prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain responsible for rational thinking—while calming the amygdala, which triggers the stress response. Through deep relaxation and guided visualisation, SFH empowers you to take control of your mindset and wellbeing.

Does hypnotherapy really work?

Hypnotherapy is a science-backed approach that helps the brain break free from unhelpful patterns and create positive change.

At its core, it works by harnessing neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to rewire itself based on new experiences and thought processes. When in a focused yet deeply relaxed state, the subconscious mind becomes more receptive to positive suggestions, making it easier to shift thoughts, emotions, and behaviours.

Studies show that hypnosis can help with issues from reducing stress to enhancing emotional resilience, break negative cycles and even alter the way the brain processes pain. By guiding the mind towards healthier responses, hypnotherapy empowers individuals to take control of their wellbeing, offering lasting benefits that support both mental and physical health.

How long does it take to see results?

The duration to experience noticeable results from Solution Focused Hypnotherapy varies among individuals, as each person's journey is unique.

Many clients report significant improvements after just a few sessions, while others may require more time to achieve their desired outcomes.

You have the flexibility to choose the number of sessions that best suit your needs, with the option to start and pause your therapy as you move through your unique journey.

With both virtual and face-to-face appointments available, this allows you to select the format that is most convenient for you, mixing and matching as required.

With hypnotherapy, assessing your progress is simple – you'll notice yourself feeling better!
