If you’ve been thinking about hypnotherapy but can’t easily get to London, or simply prefer to work from home, online sessions are a genuinely effective alternative. I’ve worked with clients across the UK, the US, Australia, and Canada this way — and the results are no different from sitting in the same room. Time zones are not a barrier, with early morning and evening appointments available to suit clients across the US, Canada, and Australia.

We meet via Zoom or Skype at a time that suits you. Before we begin, I’ll take time to understand what you’re dealing with and what you’re hoping to change. The session itself follows the same process as in-person work — I guide you into a deeply relaxed, focused state where your subconscious mind becomes more open to positive change.
All you need is a quiet room, a stable internet connection, and a device with a camera. Headphones help, but aren’t essential. Most clients are surprised by how quickly they settle in and how effective it feels.
For many people, yes. In a study from the Manchester team that developed gut-directed hypnotherapy, people with IBS who had their sessions over video call improved significantly, and after adjusting for age there was no significant difference in symptom improvement compared with people treated face to face (Hasan et al., 2019). What matters most is the quality of the connection between therapist and client, and the depth of the hypnotic state — neither of which requires you to be in the same room.
Many of my online clients have tried other approaches before finding hypnotherapy. Anxiety, IBS, sleep problems, low confidence, unwanted habits — these all respond well to this kind of work, regardless of whether we’re in person or on a screen.
I work with a wide range of concerns online, including:
If you’re not sure whether hypnotherapy is right for your situation, just get in touch — I’m happy to have a no-obligation conversation before you commit to anything.
Your first session starts with a consultation where I listen carefully to what’s brought you here. There’s no pressure, no scripts, and no “going under” in the dramatic sense you might have seen on TV. Hypnosis is simply a state of focused relaxation — most people describe it as feeling deeply calm but completely aware.
From there, I tailor the work specifically to you. Some people notice a shift after a single session. Others benefit from a short course of three to six sessions depending on what we’re working on. I’ll always be upfront with you about what I think will help and why.
A little preparation helps you settle quickly and get the most from each session:

All sessions are conducted via secure, encrypted platforms. Everything discussed is completely confidential. You remain in full control throughout — hypnotherapy cannot make you do or say anything you don’t want to.
For many people it is. Research on video-call hypnotherapy for IBS found results comparable to face-to-face treatment, and the process, techniques and recordings are the same.
A private, quiet room, a reliable internet connection, a device with a camera, and a comfortable chair. Headphones can help you focus on my voice.
You will simply come out of hypnosis naturally, feeling calm and alert, and we reconnect and carry on.
