Client Testimonials

“Laura has really helped me become calmer and more relaxed. She has provided me with the tools to change my mindset and become better at dealing with life’s stresses. I would highly recommend.” — RG, Female, 29

“I cannot recommend Brighter Future Therapy Practice enough, my anxiety levels were through the roof before starting my sessions and now they’re at zero. As someone who isn’t big on talking about myself/my problems with strangers I was very apprehensive going into my first session however once in the room with Laura I just felt so at ease & comfortable talking with her. My sessions with Laura have taught me how to not let my anxiety get the better of me, to look for positives instead of focusing on negatives. I leave each session feeling lighter and more at ease within myself. After a good few years of me saying oh no therapy isn’t for me I now would recommend therapy to anyone who is struggling and I would 100% recommend Laura as she has helped me immensely.” — CB, Female, 47

Frequently Asked Questions About Hypnotherapy for Stress and Anxiety

What is solution focused hypnotherapy for stress and anxiety?

Solution focused hypnotherapy is a practical, forward-focused approach that helps calm the nervous system and reduce ongoing stress and anxiety.

It combines solution focused brief therapy techniques, neuroscience-based psychoeducation, and hypnosis to help the brain move out of constant “fight or flight” mode. The focus is on creating calm and resilience in the present, rather than analysing past experiences.


How can hypnotherapy help with stress and anxiety?

Stress and anxiety are often driven by an overactive stress response in the brain.

Solution focused hypnotherapy helps by:

  • Calming the nervous system

  • Reducing overthinking and mental overload

  • Improving emotional regulation

  • Supporting better sleep and recovery

  • Increasing resilience to everyday stress

This allows anxiety to reduce naturally, rather than being managed through constant effort or avoidance.


Is hypnotherapy safe for stress and anxiety?

Yes. Solution focused hypnotherapy is considered safe and non-invasive when delivered by a trained and insured practitioner.

It does not involve medication or physical intervention, and clients remain fully aware and in control at all times. Sessions are delivered in line with UK professional, ethical, and confidentiality standards.


Will I lose control or be unconscious during hypnosis?

No. Hypnosis is not sleep, and you will not lose control.

You remain awake, aware, and able to speak throughout the session. Hypnosis is simply a state of focused attention and relaxation, similar to daydreaming or becoming absorbed in a task. You can stop the session at any time.
