Anxiety Hypnotherapy Nottingham
Anxiety is something most people experience from time to time. It’s a natural response to stress or danger - your body’s way of preparing you to cope with a challenging situation - often referred to as the fight/flight/freeze response. However, when feelings of anxiety become overwhelming or constant, it can leave you with intense physical and emotional symptoms that can start to interfere with your day-to-day life, leaving you exhausted and unable to fully enjoy the things you love.
What causes anxiety?
Anxiety can stem from a variety of reasons, and sometimes there’s no single cause. It can be triggered by:
- Stressful life events such as work pressure, relationship challenges, or financial worries
- Trauma from past experiences
- Health concerns or uncertainty about the future
- Overthinking and negative thought patterns
- Lifestyle factors such as poor sleep, lack of exercise, or an imbalanced diet
- Genetics or a family history of anxiety.
Symptoms of anxiety
Anxiety can affect us physically, emotionally, and mentally. You might experience:
Physical symptoms:
- Rapid heartbeat or tightness in the chest
- Shaking, sweating, or dizziness
- Shortness of breath or feeling lightheaded
- Trouble sleeping or feeling restless.
Mental and emotional symptoms:
- Persistent feelings of worry or fear
- A racing mind, full of ‘what if’ thoughts and catastrophising
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
- Feeling irritable, overwhelmed, or out of control.
If you find yourself constantly on edge, avoiding situations, or feeling like your thoughts are running the show, it’s time to explore ways to regain control.
Should this resonate with you, it’s important to remember one key thing: you do have the resources inside you to find your inner freedom from what is holding you back.
How Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can help
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy, based on neuroscience, helps you to understand how your brains work and how they can get you stuck sometimes, helping you overcome anxiety disorders and resolve the thoughts and reactions that create it.
By empowering you to focus on the present and the desired future you want, we look forward rather than dwelling on the past problems or current conflicts. By guiding you into a deeply relaxed and focused state you are then able to quieten and relax your conscious mind and reduce overthinking. Break the cycle of negative thinking and behaviours. Rewire your brain to build new, healthy patterns of behaviour. Allowing you to feel calm and back in control and make those real, positive changes in your life.
You don’t have to face anxiety alone. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy offers you the support, tools, and guidance you need to start finding yourself again. If you’re ready to move forward and make those positive steps toward the life and future you want, I’d love to help.

A transformative impact on my life
Where do I begin? I never realised how much I needed Katies support until I had the privilege of working with her. Her calm and reassuring approach immediately put me at ease. Each session was a safe space where I felt truly heard, understood, and supported.

I can't recommend this service enough
When I began hypnotherapy with Katie I was mildly sceptical and unsure of what to expect, but I noticed an improvement in my mood after even the first session. After 8 weeks I was and am totally convinced this is a lifechanging experience & practice.

A new way to approach daily life
Katie has been a huge help in giving me tools to use and a new way to approach daily life. I have had therapy in the past but this was so different - it was refreshing to not look back and drag up the past but to focus on the future.

Life changing for me
Hypnotherapy with Katie has been life changing for me and I say this as a person suffering with ME/CFS, FND and chronic migraine to the point where I was bedridden for most of 2024. The toolkit Katie instilled in me during our time has enabled me to have a quality of life that I never thought possible.
Kelly
Empowering
I can honestly say that working with Katie has been life-changing. The impact of the sessions has been profound. I no longer find myself stuck in procrastination, something I’ve struggled with for years. I now feel so much more capable of dealing with stress and difficult situations when they come up.
