The state of hypnosis allows better emotional regulation, pain management and better control over your thoughts & behaviours.
Real change starts in the mind.
How hypnotherapy works
Think of a time you were anxious — at the dentist, perhaps — and someone said "just relax." Did it help? For most people, it doesn't. That's because telling the emotional brain to calm down rarely works — but hypnosis can.
Hypnotherapy works by creating a brain state where lasting change is most likely to happen. In hypnosis, the thinking part of the brain — the prefrontal cortex — becomes more focused, helping you concentrate on what you do want, rather than staying stuck on what you don't.
At the same time, the emotional centre of the brain settles, creating a calm, receptive state that words alone can't reach. The brain's fight-or-flight response also quietens, so your body settles rather than staying on high alert. This combination leaves the mind open, relaxed and ready for new ways of thinking and responding. Because the subconscious communicates through metaphor and imagery, this shift can happen gently — without needing to relive or revisit difficult past experiences.
The approach
Hi, I’m Teresa, a clinical hypnotherapist based in Bardon, Brisbane.
Every session begins with understanding your story, your patterns, and what you most want to change.
Whether that’s anxiety, fear or phobia - driving or a fear of heights, quitting smoking, pain management or any other habit or behaviour you want to change. I use evidence-based hypnotherapy to gently guide you into a focused, relaxed state where your mind becomes more open to lasting change. It’s a collaborative process, paced entirely to suit you - designed to build confidence, clarity, and real, long-lasting change.
Providing you with a safe space to relax.
I create a calm, supportive space where real change can unfold. The appointments take place in our soothing and private office environment complimentary sparkling or still water, and individualised care.
See me in person or online.
I work in the Bardon Counselling & Natural Therapy Centre, 151 Boundary Road, Bardon - just five minutes northwest of Brisbane’s CBD.
You’re welcome to unwind in our comfortable rooms or enjoy the ease of an online appointment from the comfort of your own home.
Not sure if hypnotherapy is right for you? I offer a free discovery call - a no-pressure conversation where you can ask questions, share what you’re hoping to change and get a genuine feel for whether it’s the right fit. There’s nothing to lose and it could be the first step toward real change.
