Hypnotherapist Sydney

Hello…!!! I am Katherine Ferris… Clinical Hypnotherapist with 20+ years of experience. Based in Macquarie Street, Sydney CBD and Annandale, Inner West.

I am genuinely looking forward to guiding you to make positive changes, in the way you think, feel and do things.

Regardless of what life issues you’re struggling with, I would like to hear from you!

Do you appear calm but you're in turmoil?

Outwardly you appear calm and in control, but beneath the surface you’re in turmoil. 

Are you stressed by life demands and responsibilities? Are you juggling relationships, financial pressure, work deadlines or habits and addictions? Do you spiral into low moods and a negative mindset? 

Because of what life throws at you, do you feel overwhelmed, anxious and silently suffering? If you are, you don’t have to do it alone…
Read on… find out how a clinical hypnotherapist is able to help you.

What to expect when you visit a hypnotherapist?

Have you ever wondered what happens during a visit to a clinical hypnotherapist?
Don’t worry, if you’re a bit anxious it’s perfectly normal.
Let me put your mind at ease and tell you more about it…
Most people, just like you and me, say they’re a bit nervous at their first visit to a hypnotherapist. Understandably so,  because you don’t know what to expect when seeing a clinical hypnotherapist for the first time. 

Do I swing a watch to Hypnotise you?

To be honest, that’s a bit old fashioned now days!

Mental health and hypnosis treatments have come a long way in recent years.

And no… I don’t swing a watch or click my fingers to put you to sleep or make you do weird things.

You will not be put under, or put to sleep. Instead you will remain calmly aware of your surroundings and fully in control. At the same time, you will become more responsive to positive suggestions. Hypnosis is a pleasant phenomena, not scary mind control.

I am dedicated to helping you and your friends achieve lasting results with the help of mindfulness hypnotherapy.

quick results with hypnotherapy

Naturally, you might be somewhat nervous talking about your personal issues. Or you’re a bit sceptical about getting quick results with hypnosis.

After all, you’ve been struggling with your issues for quite some time.
You’ve been at wits end trying to cope with the many challenges life throws at you.

There is a way to turn this mindset around.

You are not stuck. Your are just committed to certain habits and patterns of behaviour. Because it helped you in the past. Now the behaviour is more harmful than helpful. The reason you can’t move forward is because you keep applying the same old formula to a new level of your life. Change the formula to get a different result. ~ Emily Maroutian

Become the best that you can be!

When we work together my wholehearted focus is on your needs!

Overcoming your fears, habits and addictions.
Manging your anxiety, stress, grief or sadness.
Just as importantly, helping you reach your hopes and dreams.

Become the best you can be with the guidance from an experienced hypnotherapist.

I would like to hear from you! Let me know what your issues, struggles, goals and desires are.

Most importantly, no matter what challenges you’re faced with, I believe you can make positive changes in your life.

Example of hypnosis

Are you curious about what hypnosis feels like? 

Being in hypnosis will be a familiar experience, because you already use hypnosis in your daily life. Hypnosis is a natural phenomena of your mind.

Perfect example of hypnosis is when you’re driving a car. You arrive at your familiar destination and you don’t recall most of the trip.

Its like an auto-pilot takes over, while your steering becomes automatic. Like there’s an inbuilt GPS in your brain directing the way. Automatically guiding you to turn corners at the right time.

All this happens while you’re talking, listening to the radio or absorbed in your thoughts.

While you are in hypnosis your attention is so focused (again, think of driving a car) distractions are temporarily blocked out or ignored.

I am a registered clinical hypnotherapist in Sydney CBD and Annandale Inner West, with several decades of experience. My clients frequently tell me that being guided into hypnosis is a positive mental experience.

What does a clinical hypnotherapist help with?

A Clinical Hypnotherapist will guide you to overcome stress, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma and PTSD.
Similarly, a well trained and experienced hypnotherapist is of help with reducing bad habits and addictions. Hypnotherapy helps with pain management, IBS gut problems, unexplained infertility and much more.

Most importantly, suggestions made in hypnosis are specifically designed to initiate beneficial changes in negative emotions, habits and behaviours.

Therefore, hypnosis treatments are successfully used for stopping smoking, gambling, nail biting, binge drinking, comfort eating, weight loss, panic attacks, stress, anxiety and much more.

How many sessions will I need?

It’s important to mention that hypnotherapy is a brief form of therapy.

However, it all depends on the issues you want to resolve.

On average about three or four sessions are highly recommended. Although, traumatic or deeper emotional issues will need a more concentrated effort of up to six sessions or more.

Studies indicate that it takes 28 days to create new habits. Above all, repetition is the key to lasting change. For best results, your commitment and follow through with the recommended sessions is going to be paramount.

Testimonials and Client Reviews

Thank you for your website and the CDs. I bought one of each to meditate with. The difference I feel is unbelievable. I feel so much better in myself. It is helping me enormously, I feel so much more calm.

I cannot speak highly enough of Hypnotherapy and would like to say how thankful I am for your help in overcoming my alcohol dependence.

Its been over 6 weeks since my last smoking session with you so I wanted to let you know that I have not been tempted at all to have a cigarette, even though I have been around smokers and even been offered them.

Unfortunately, as you might remember when I came to see you, I had suffered with a terrible Driving Phobia for many years. I was so afraid of driving I would shake all over, at the very thought of getting behind the wheel. Even though the fear was truly debilitating, I did actually manage to recover from it with a few sessions of Hypnosis. I just wanted to let you know I had a fantastic first driving lesson! I’m actually looking forward to the next one! I felt calm, happy, clear.

I haven’t been drawn to the poker machines for months now and I know that gambling is no longer a problem for me.

There have been some big changes in my confidence, mainly with the way that I deal with people. I don’t hold myself back and I have my say. My communications teacher is very impressed with my input during class. I do feel that I value myself more now.

I am bursting with excitement. I got a phone call from our IVF clinic to let me know that I am officially pregnant. We are absolutely over the moon, and I just wanted to thank you so much for helping me get through the process. I feel like hypnosis sessions made all the difference.
