Will I lose control during Hypnotherapy?

No. You are always in control. Hypnotherapy is not like stage hypnosis — you cannot be made to do anything against your will.

What does Hypnosis feel like?

Most people describe it as a calm, deeply relaxed state, similar to daydreaming or being absorbed in a book or film.

Can everyone be hypnotised?

Yes, most people can enter a light to medium state of hypnosis if they are open and willing to participate.

Is Hypnotherapy safe?

Yes. It is a safe, non-invasive therapy with no side effects, and you remain aware and in control throughout.

How many sessions will I need?

This depends on the individual and the issue being addressed. Some people notice changes after just one or two sessions, while others benefit from a series.

Will I remember what happens in hypnosis?

Yes. Most people remember everything, though they may feel very relaxed, as if they’ve had a restful break.

I'm Paula Phillips
Integrative Health Practitioner

Specialist in Hypnotherapy in Belfast and across Northern Ireland

Hypnotherapy is a safe and effective complementary therapy that uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help access the subconscious mind. In this natural state of deep relaxation, the mind becomes more open to positive suggestions, making it possible to gently shift unhelpful thoughts, habits, or patterns of behaviour.

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic process that puts the client fully in control at all times. Paula creates a calm and supportive environment where clients can relax deeply while being guided through techniques designed to encourage change, healing, and personal growth.

Hypnotherapy can be used alongside other complementary approaches, working holistically to support both emotional and physical wellbeing. Many people seek it for help with stress, anxiety, phobias, insomnia, or unwanted habits such as smoking or overeating. It can also build confidence, improve focus, and support resilience in everyday life.

As a gentle and non-invasive therapy, hypnotherapy is suitable for people of all ages. By helping the mind and body work together in harmony, it offers a powerful way to unlock potential, release limitations, and create lasting positive change. So if you are looking for a hypnotherapy specialist in Belfast or across Northern Ireland, reach out and contact Paula today.

Is Hypnotherapy Right for Me?

Hypnotherapy may be right for you if you are looking for a gentle yet effective way to make positive changes in your life. It can be especially helpful if you struggle with anxiety, phobias, unwanted habits, low confidence, or difficulties such as insomnia or stress-related conditions. Because hypnotherapy works with the subconscious mind, it can uncover and gently shift patterns that may be holding you back, helping you to feel more in control, relaxed, and resilient. Suitable for people of all ages, hypnotherapy is safe, non-invasive, and works well alongside other therapies. Paula offers hypnotherapy and sees clients in Belfast and across Northern Ireland.

My Approach as an Integrative Health Practitioner

Specilalist in Hypnotherapy in Belfast and across Northern Ireland.

I combine therapies such as kinesiology, acupuncture, bioresonance testing, homeopathy, EFT, hypnotherapy, and more to support healing on all levels — physical, emotional, and energetic. This approach allows me to uncover the root causes behind symptoms rather than just treating the surface. Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, fatigue, or other concerns, I tailor each session to help bring your body and mind back into balance.
