Hypnobirthing

Hypnobirthing gives the birthing mother/couple the chance to feel calm and in control allowing your amazing body to follow the birthing process to deliver your new bundle of joy. Hypnobirthing gives you tools to help replace fear and panic with calm, helping you to achieve maximum productivity with minimum wasted efforts so as a couple you are focused throughout the powerful birth journey.  The tools can build a gentle relaxing birthing environment and give you confidence in yourselves. 

I am a qualified hypnotherapist combing hypnosis with Tapping TFT, NLP, Aromatherapy and so can tailor the techniques just for you whilst working through any anxiety, worries or fears you hold relating to giving birth. I truly believe that through awakening all our senses we can use positive suggestions and anchors to create the birthing experience that's right for you as a couple. 

I am running private couple courses for the birthing mother and partner. The courses will be made up of 4 sessions between 2-2 1/2  hours each and I can come to you in your own home setting or you can come to me. I have been using Zoom during the Covid-19 session and so this is an option if preferred. These courses can be tailored made to work on your own worries, fears and concerns and offer an alternative to the off the shelf packages. Group hypnobirthing courses teach great tools and some couples may prefer this setting however within these private couple courses we can truly focus on you as a couple and can use techniques that suit your requirements utilising my hypnotherapy, TFT (Tapping), NLP background. I trained with Anne Bayati who is a registered midwife & hypnotherapist.
