My Story
From Struggle to Transformation
Our Story
Kim Sweetland
There was a time in my life when anxiety, panic, and depression felt overwhelming. No matter what I tried, I struggled to find a way forward. Then I discovered Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, and everything changed. It helped me break free from the cycle of negativity, regain control, and move towards a more positive and authentic life.
The impact was so profound that I knew I had to share this incredible approach with others. That’s why I trained as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist—to help people, just like you, experience the same life-changing benefits that I did.
Now, I’m here to support you on your journey to feeling better, gaining confidence, and achieving the life you deserve.
We all have the ability to grow, adapt, and create positive change in our lives. Sometimes, we just need a little guidance to take that first step. With the right support, you can break free from old patterns, build confidence, and move towards the life you truly want. You already have the potential—hypnotherapy can help you unlock it.
"The sessions with Kim helped me to develop a positive mind set, and to focus on actions which helped my wellbeing and support network. I can highly recommend Kim’s style and service to anyone seeking to increase their positivity, wellbeing and resilience.” JH
Welcome – Your Journey Starts Here
Whatever has brought you to this page, I am truly glad you’re here. Finding the right support is a big step, and I want to reassure you that change is possible—no matter how things feel right now.
Life has a way of shaping us through experiences, thoughts, and memories. Sometimes, we find ourselves stuck in patterns of anxiety, low confidence, self-doubt, or fear, even when the original trigger is long gone. Maybe you’ve always struggled with self-esteem or never quite felt ‘enough’ no matter what you achieve. Perhaps a traumatic event, stress, or phobia is holding you back from living life to the fullest. Or maybe you simply feel ‘off’ but can’t put your finger on why.
What if there was a way to change that?
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy taps into the incredible power of the brain—the very thing that controls our thoughts, behaviours, and emotions. By shifting the way we think, we can break free from unhelpful patterns and create a happier, healthier future.
I work with adults aged 16+ from all backgrounds, offering a welcoming, non-judgemental, and supportive space to explore what matters most to you. Whether you're looking for stress relief, increased confidence, freedom from fear, or a clearer path forward, I tailor sessions to suit your individual needs—at a pace that feels right for you.
How to Get Started
I offer a free discovery call if you have any questions you'd like to ask first and to see if hypnotherapy feels like the right fit for you, or you can go right ahead and book your first session if you're ready to get started. You’ll also receive a free relaxation audio to support you between sessions and access to lots of resources to add to your journey.
You can feel confident knowing that I am fully qualified, insured, and registered, continuously expanding my expertise to provide the highest standard of care through Supervision and Continued Professional Development.
When you’re ready, I’m here to help. Get in touch in whatever way feels most comfortable—I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
About Kim
A Passion for Positive Change
Kim's journey into hypnotherapy was deeply personal. After losing a dear friend to suicide and having struggled with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem for most her life, Kim was desperate for a real and lasting change. She had explored various approaches in the past—including medication, counselling, and CBT—but still felt she hadn’t reached her full potential. Then, by chance, she discovered Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.
"This experience literally changed my life. In a short space of time, I felt like me again—free, confident, and alive. It was unlike anything I had tried before and it was so simple."
The transformation was so profound that Kim knew she had to train in this powerful therapy herself. Her driving force has remained the same ever since: to help others experience the same freedom and confidence that changed her life.
A Therapist Who Truly Understands
Having personally faced many of the challenges she now helps others overcome, Kim offers a unique, deeply empathetic, and understanding approach. She recognises that struggling with such issues can feel isolating and overwhelming—but also knows that change is possible. Her compassionate, solution-focused sessions are designed to empower her clients to move forward with clarity and confidence.
Kim has also been navigating her own neurodivergent journey, having received a diagnosis at 43. Reflecting on the experience, she says,
"It’s been a rollercoaster, and I’m still on the ride. Being diagnosed later in life was a huge turning point—like knocking over a domino that sent ripples all the way back to my earliest memories. It’s given me a deeper understanding of myself, how I experience the world, and my place within it."
This personal insight, combined with ongoing study and experience, allows Kim to work confidently with neurodivergent clients, whether diagnosed or self-identified. She continues to expand her expertise, embracing the complexities of human experience with her usual empathy and understanding.

✔ FREE Discovery Call to discuss your specific journey and answer any questions you may have
✔ Virtual and face-to-face appointments for flexibility and convenience
✔ Backup resources to support progress between sessions
