How it works
The HypnoMenopause® Approach
If you’re reading this page, it’s likely that you’re at some stage in the menopausal transition (or think you might be). Did you know that the lead up to menopause, known as perimenopause, can last many years? Menopause itself is defined as the time when you haven’t had a period for twelve months or more, after which time you’re in the post-menopausal stage.
Whatever stage of menopause you’re experiencing, you might be finding this time of life difficult for several reasons and wondering how the HypnoMenopause® Approach can help.
For some women, this transitional phase is characterised hot flushes and night sweats, fatigue, aches and pains, sleep problems and a range of other symptoms which make it hard to function. It’s also a time when women may be struggling with life pressures and a shifting sense of their own identity.
HypnoMenopause® was featured in Psychologies Magazine. Following the programme, journalist Clem Felix wrote, “I feel energetic and am looking forward to the future with real excitement for the first time in years. For now, at least, I feel a long way from needing HRT”. HypnoMenopause® creator, Dr. Claire Jack, writes regularly about the menopausal transition for online magazine, Psychology Today as one of their in-house experts.

In the meantime, please check out the Q&A section below which answers some of the most asked questions about HypnoMenopause®.

How can hypnotherapy help me with hot flushes/ insomnia/ brain fog?
We often think of the brain and body as being separate, when, in fact, they’re completely connected. Everything we think impacts us at a physical level (take a moment to think of something which causes you fear, and notice how your body reacts). Hypnotherapy can help us connect with our body at a deep level and, in addition to changing the messages we offer ourselves, visualisation is linked to physical changes at the cellular level. Whatever physical menopausal symptoms you have, increasing your mind-body awareness has the capacity to help.
Is it guaranteed to help me?
As with any type of therapy, hypnotherapy isn’t guaranteed to help. However, if you are genuinely motivated to create change and are open to exploring hypnotherapy, like many clients it is likely you will see an improvement in your symptoms.
What if I can’t be hypnotised?
We know from research that some people are more hypnotisable than others. If you’ve ever been really engrossed in a good book or spent some time getting lost in a daydream, you have the capacity to reach a state of mind which is just right for you. We also know that the clients who experience the greatest transformations are those who are motivated – regardless of whether or not they’re highly hypnotisable. In addition to that, HypnoMenopause® draws on a range of different approaches, including mindfulness, CBT and NLP and people tend to find that they respond well to this integrated therapeutic approach.
I’m on HRT. Is that a problem?
If you’re on HRT and wish to continue taking it, it’s perfectly ok to use hypnotherapy alongside your medication as a complementary approach.
Can this be used as an alternative to HRT?
Everyone’s experience is unique and whilst some women stay on HRT during their HypnoMenopause® Programme, others seek it out as an alternative therapy. In clinical trials, hypnotherapy has been shown to have an effectiveness rate of up to 74% in the treatment of hot flushes – a similar success rate to HRT. It also helps with mood, sleep and sexual function so, for some women, it provides an effective alternative to medication.
Does it matter what stage of menopause I’m at?
HypnoMenopause® is designed to work with women, no matter whether they’re perimenopausal or postmenopausal. Menopausal symptoms can persist for several years and this programme can help you, whatever your experience.
I don’t have hot flushes. I’m just a bit down…
Some women seek out HypnoMenopause® because of physical symptoms, some women seek out hypnotherapy because of mood disorders and some women seek it out simply because they’re feeling stressed, fatigued and overwhelmed. HypnoMenopause® is designed to help with everything from coping with mid-life career stress to empty-nest syndrome to hot flushes.
How many sessions do I need?
During your initial consultation, we can discuss your needs, including how many sessions you might require. Generally, it is recommended that you have five sessions and complete the full HypnoMenopause® Programme. This allows me to adopt a holistic and integrated approach with you. Unlike a doctor, I’m not just here to treat your symptoms. I’m here to help you pursue the fulfilled life which you deserve. As part of your programme, you’ll receive two recordings and will be taught self-hypnosis so that you can carry the work forwards for the rest of your life.

Hi Friends! I get a bunch of questions about hypnosis and hypnotherapy. I think it’s shrouded in a bit of mystery, and can sometimes seem a little mysterious or inaccessible, which it absolutely isn’t! The hypnotic state is completely natural and normal, and when used therapeutically can be an amazing treatment modality as well as a way to find balance in this busy world.
Hypnosis, either self-hypnosis or in a therapeutic setting is a gentle process of deep relaxation, where you can release stress, attune to deep inner peace, find clarity, balance, healing, and recharge.
It’s an instant reset where you can feel renewed, centred, and highly capable of navigating your day, your schedule, and your life with ease, flow, and grace.
I think a good starting point when trying to understand hypnosis would be thinking of it as a self-care practice, because when you think about it, it is the ultimate in self-care because it affects the health of our mind. When the mind is feeling good, everything else can fall into place.
Very often, REST isn’t the first thing to come to mind when we think about our overall health. Sure, we think about sleep, and we know to be healthy we need good quality sleep and plenty of it, but what about rest?
I know what it’s like when the momentum of the go-mode has become the default, you feel like if you take the time to slow down it can all fall apart!
But what if, the deeper you rest, the more inspired, energised, and proficient you become? Maybe we just need to press the pause button so that everything can fall into place?
Hypnosis is simply an amazing tool we can use to simply rest and recharge.

It's true what they say, if you can dream it, you can do it. The problem is, for most of us, we don't think it applies to ourselves. We let feelings of unworthiness get in the way of our dreams.
Subconscious patterns of thought are what limit us and can keep us from being who we really are. Hypnosis changes those patterns and opens your mind to the possibilities you might not have considered before.

Self-hypnosis & meditation aren't the same, but they do share some very profound similarities in their abilities to reduce stress, improve health, and slow the effects of aging. Just think of someone you know who has been through trauma or a stressful period of their life. Have you noticed how the experience aged them? Meditation & self-hypnosis slow the aging process because they can reduce stress & even reverse the process.
So how does it work? In part, it reduces cortisol, one of the stress hormones released during the stress response. Cortisol can have many negative effects including weight gain and even a decrease in skin elasticity.
When stress triggers the fight or flight response, cortisol is released to protect us from predators. It's a survival mechanism that works by getting into our skin so if we are attacked by a predator, we won't be so tasty. Meditation & self-hypnosis reduce cortisol and flood you with bliss chemicals that give you a youthful glow.
Another anti-aging benefit of self-hypnosis & hypnotherapy is better sleep. The phrase "sleep on it" refers to the very real way your body rids itself of stress while you sleep at night. Practicing meditation or self-hypnosis during the day, allows your body to use that time for stress relief so that at night you can use sleep time just for sleep. And when we are well rested, we both look and feel better.
