Hello and a warm welcome to you. My name is Lauren and I’m a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist based in Dereham, Norfolk. Together we can work to get you moving forwards - to build confidence and peace into your life by taking control of how you feel. Sessions with me include a mixture of talking therapy and hypnosis in a supportive, non-judgemental environment to help you make lasting changes and begin to thrive. I can help you to break the negative cycle of anxiety by creating a safe and open space to change old patterns of behaviour, improve your thoughts in the present and become hopeful for the future. If you are struggling to cope with your everyday life, I can offer you techniques and skills to improve anxiety and together we can work in a holistic way to move you towards your goals. If you would like to get booked in for a free consultation to chat about how I can support you, please go to the ‘Request a free consultation’ section below. I look forward to hearing from you.

Solution Focused Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy

What can I help you with?

Social anxiety, general anxiety, health anxiety, panic disorder and more

Each session is specific to your needs and goals as an individual, and we work together to help you make sense of how you feel and take control of your anxiety. I can teach you positive techniques to help you minimise stress and grow in confidence. I work with people who are suffering from anxiety and the many issues that it can bring. No matter how your anxiety presents, I can help you get back to the best version of you and stay there! If you are unsure about whether I am the right therapist for you, then please reach out via the enquiry form.

  3. Support you in an open and non-judgemental capacity to lift shame and boost your confidence.

Together we work towards your goals and focus on how you want to feel.

How does it work?

  • Break Free

    Receiving support can help you to break free from the negative cycles that you may feel stuck in. Having the opportunity to talk about things can help you to process them and as a result of this, you may begin to feel lighter and more confident.

  • Take Control

    When things get too much, it can feel like you aren’t in control of yourself or your emotions. Working with a therapist can help you find the ability to take back control and recognise that your power lies in being able to cope with life and how you feel.

  • Reconnect

    If you are struggling with something you may find that you feel isolated and alone. Your relationships may be affected as a result of this and seeking help can give you the confidence to reconnect with your real self and your loved ones.

Do you ever just get seriously overwhelmed by an emotion? Maybe you suffer from moments of extreme anxiety or even anger? Have you ever wondered why your body steps in to react physiologically… like where were the signs leading up to these moments?! Well, that’s what your emotions are. They are part of your human experience but they are ALSO signals/signs. They are showing you how you feel but also what you need. When those emotions (signals) get ignored, they hang around and they get louder… they get stronger… until your body has no choice but to be made aware of them in a really uncomfortable way! Learning to observe your emotions and choosing how you respond to them is a major factor in minimising heightened reactions. #anxiety #anxietytherapist #emotions #emotionalregulation #dysregulation #healing #hypnotherapy #psychotherapy

Intrusive thoughts are your brains way of trying to be prepared for things to go wrong. Everyone experiences them, some worse than others but they are a completely normal human experience. However, when they are scary or deeply uncomfortable they can wreak havoc on your daily life. They can get stuck and you might begin to obsess over them or fear them altogether. What keeps the thoughts stuck is the amount of meaning you apply to them, detach the meaning from the thought and it will drift away like a balloon that’s no longer pinned to the ground. Do you suffer from intrusive thoughts? I can help, send me a DM or an email info@beginagaintherapy.co.uk and we can have a chat 🤍 #hypnotherapy #psychotherapy #anxietytherapist #anxietytips #intrusivethoughts

Anxiety isn’t an emotional, but a physical state of arousal. Your nervous system becomes ‘switched on’ and heightened to whatever the brain has perceived as danger. Lots of emotions and thoughts can trigger the state of anxiety, especially when they aren’t dealt with appropriately and are labelled as ‘bad’ or ‘scary’. If you don’t believe you can cope with something, your brain is going to step in to try and keep you safe. Anxiety is what you experience after the alarm system has been triggered - but you get to DECIDE whether or not you listen to it, and what you do once it’s been triggered. #anxiety #therapist #hypnotherapist #psychotherapist #dereham #anxietyrelief #anxietytips #mentalhealthmatters

Hands up who could use a gentle day?! 🙋‍♀️ I know I give myself gentle days throughout each year, they are particularly good when you need to slow down and have resting as your priority. But they are also great to have when you feel low and don’t have the motivation to do the more time consuming things, you don’t need to do things to 100% for them to be worthy of doing. Have a microwave meal, it’s still food. Have a sponge bath, it’s still washing. Do some light stretching for 5 minutes, it’s still moving your body. What sort of things would you include in your gentle days? 🤍 #hypnotherapist #psychotherapist #anxietytherapist #gentledays #mentalhealthmatters #anxietysupport #depressiontips #therapy #positivepsychology

When I lost a loved one I started to experience more health anxiety, it can be a very strange and intense fear that doesn’t seem to have an answer (when you’re stuck in the midst of panic anyway). Recognising health anxieties as a way to soothe your feelings of fear is important: “I am thinking and worrying about these things because I am trying to not have my fear of being sick realised” for example. Recognising your triggers and creating a small strategy that will help you cope better is another suggestion of mine. Grief and health anxiety can be tough, but there is always a way through even the most painful or scary experiences 🫶 #hypnotherapy #psychotherapy #therapist #anxietytherapist #uk #grief #mentalhealthmatters #anxietyrelief #positivepsychology
