My Approach

Hypnotherapy tailored to you—mind, body and spirit

My approach to hypnotherapy is gentle, holistic, and grounded in understanding. I support you in overcoming subconscious blocks that may be holding you back from living fully—whether that’s anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, or simply feeling out of balance.

Every session is tailored to your unique needs. From my practice in Knutsford, I help clients create lasting emotional and behavioural change in their personal and professional lives.

How Can I Help?

Emotional Wellbeing

  • Yes, hypnotherapy can help reduce anxiety by calming the nervous system and addressing the root causes of anxious thoughts and behaviours. In my Knutsford practice, I use gentle, evidence-based techniques to support clients in feeling calmer, more in control, and better able to manage everyday stress.

  • Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool for managing stress. Through guided relaxation and positive suggestion, you can learn to respond to challenges more calmly, improve sleep, and feel more balanced. Many clients feel a noticeable reduction in tension and overwhelm after just a few sessions.

  • While hypnotherapy is not a replacement for medical treatment, it can be an effective complementary therapy for low mood. I help clients shift unhelpful thought patterns, reconnect with their strengths, and rediscover motivation and joy in everyday life.

  • Yes. Hypnotherapy can help you change the way your mind responds to intrusive or negative thoughts. By working at a subconscious level, it helps to break the cycle of rumination, promote self-compassion, and build healthier, more helpful thinking patterns.

  • Overthinking can be exhausting and overwhelming. Hypnotherapy supports you in calming racing thoughts, quieting the inner critic, and developing a more peaceful, focused mind. Many clients report a clearer head and better decision-making after therapy.

Sleep & Relaxation

  • Yes, hypnotherapy is widely used to help with insomnia and disrupted sleep. By addressing underlying anxiety or overactive thinking, I can help you relax more deeply and fall asleep more easily. Many clients experience improved sleep patterns and feel more rested and refreshed.

  • Hypnotherapy can offer relief for many menopause-related symptoms. It can help regulate sleep, reduce anxiety, improve mood, and even lessen the frequency of hot flushes. Sessions are tailored to support your emotional and physical wellbeing during this time of change.

Habits & Addictions

  • Hypnotherapy is a popular and effective method for quitting smoking. I work with you to break the psychological habit, reduce cravings, and strengthen your motivation to stop. Many clients find they feel more in control and free from the urge to smoke after just one or two sessions.

  • Yes, hypnotherapy can support you in quitting vaping by addressing the subconscious habits and triggers that drive the behaviour. Sessions help reduce cravings and promote a stronger, healthier mindset, making it easier to let go of the habit for good.

  • Hypnotherapy for weight management focuses on changing your relationship with food, reducing emotional eating, and increasing motivation for healthy habits. I help clients build lasting, positive changes by working with the subconscious mind—not through dieting, but through empowerment and self-belief.

Health & Body

  • Yes, hypnotherapy is recognised by the NHS and NICE guidelines as a complementary therapy for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). It can help calm the digestive system, reduce flare-ups, and ease symptoms like bloating, pain, and urgency. I tailor sessions to your personal triggers and experiences.

Fears & Trauma

  • Phobias can be deeply rooted in the subconscious, which makes hypnotherapy a highly effective approach. Whether it’s fear of flying, heights, needles or something else, I work gently to help you feel more in control and reduce anxiety around your specific fear.

  • Yes, hypnotherapy can help you feel more confident and calm during pregnancy and childbirth. It’s also beneficial for processing difficult or traumatic birth experiences. I provide a supportive, safe space to rebuild trust in your body and mind ahead of your next steps.

My fear of enclosed spaces

I saw Judi to help me with several issues, in particular, my fear of enclosed spaces. Judi put me at ease from the very first session and I like the way she explains about the brain and how hypnotherapy works. I never imagined how much Judi’s sessions would help me and I have the added bonus of a recording I can listen to whenever I need to relax.

I have recommended Judi to lots of people I know.

Thank you so much, Judi, for what you’ve done for me.

I Tried Everything — Only Judi Helped Me Break a 30-Year Habit

I have been seeing Judi for the past few months to deal with a chronic nail biting habit which had impacted my life for the past 30 years - after trying absolutely everything to stop the habit I came to hypnotherapy with an open mind and really as a last resort. I have tried everything and I cannot believe the transformation seeing Judi has made to my life, general well-being and importantly I have stopped biting my nails! She has made me understand what a chronic habit is in terms of the psychology behind it and why I was doing it to myself. Judi is just brilliant at making you feel comfortable and is very compassionate and forward looking in her approach. I would highly recommend Judi, she is a wonderful lady to work with and she genuinely cares about her clients and their well-being.

Five Stars Every Day — Judi Made a Real Difference When I Needed It Most

Amazing at what she does, very professional and understanding. Listens to your needs and designs the session around that, not just a standard template for all clients. Very knowledgable on a number of mind related subjects. Her work office is very comfortable and provides the right atmosphere for the treatment. She is very enthusiastic about her work and a credit to the profession. Helped me get through the worst few months of my life watching my mother pass. Thank you Judi. Five stars every day.

Judi is warm, friendly and approachable and within a few sessions of solution-focused hypnotherapy with her, it has helped me to address my social anxiety issues. I feel so much more positive and confident in myself.

You are in safe and reliable hands

One word, WOW. Judi is a fantastic hypnotherapist. She worked with me on several issues I was suffering with, and I can truly say she has transformed my life. I now have the tools to deal with when the unexpected hits me and how to calm myself.

If you are curious or even a little sceptical, just take the plunge and be amazed at the results! You are in safe and reliable hands with Judi.

From Fear to Calm: Judi Helped Me Reclaim Confidence and Clarity

I booked to see Judi for a course of hypnotherapy, to hopefully help me to deal with some challenges that I was trying to overcome. These sessions really helped me to gain some perspective, and they also enabled me to work through my fears and make some action-based progress. The 'hypno' aspect of the sessions were extremely beneficial; to be fully alert to her voice, whilst at the same time being utterly relaxed is a real skill that Judi has achieved. And the discussions (what I call the 'therapy' part of our time together), gave me both the strength to confront my challenges and the confidence to start to work through them. I highly recommend Judi. She is compassionate and caring and moved me from a place of fear, to a more calmer, happier mindset. Five Stars.Kind regards,

Judi Helped Me Through — With Laughter, Learning, and Real Results

Judi is fantastic. Combining the science of the body and the brain, with really enjoyable, calming and transformational hypnotherapy, she has really helped me. Added to that, she is a lovely person, you’ll laugh as much as you’ll learn and she is committed to achieving impactful results as soon as she can, something that can be quite rare these days where people target revenue over results. That is not the case here. Judi is all about impact. If you’re struggling with something and think you need help, I would happily recommend Judi.
