Hypnotherapy for anxiety, with a former NHS clinician.
If worry, panic or social anxiety is getting in the way, you don’t have to work it out alone. I’m Karyn, a clinical hypnotherapist in County Durham and a former NHS mental health specialist.
Anxiety hypnotherapy
Looking at where the anxiety comes from, not just how it feels.
Anxiety shows up in different ways for different people. My approach looks at the thoughts and old patterns behind it, as well as the symptoms, and gives you practical ways to help manage how you feel day to day.
Sessions are confidential, calm and paced around you. People come to me for:
- Panic attacks
- Constant worrying
- Health anxiety
- Social anxiety
My five-session programme is £340, five sessions for the price of four. Single sessions are £85. We start with a free 30-minute consultation, so you know what to expect before you commit to anything.
Why people choose Karyn

Years in NHS mental health

Registered and accountable
HCPC registered and on the General Hypnotherapy Register, with a BSc (Hons) and an Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy.
A plan built around you
No scripts or one-size-fits-all sessions. We agree what you want to change and work towards it together.
