therapy with alastair
Life can be overwhelming and carrying the burden of severe anxiety, chronic stress, and mental health conditions makes it even harder.
The good news is there is help available to overcome these conditions.
Most people believe that they either have to suffer with their mental health conditions or have to go through months of talking therapy to ‘feel better’. For the majority of cases this is simply not true. Fast acting therapies can bring you freedom from your ailment in just one or two sessions (video call or face to face). Just think…. what would life be like if you didn’t have your issue any more?
“We did some hypnotherapy to help me with my anxiety and trichotillomania; I wanted to stop picking my thumbs until they bled and pulling out my eyebrows. Afterwards it was like a great weight had been lifted. I can very happily say that almost instantly I felt like this was something that I didn’t want to do anymore (which was a revelation) & now six months down the line I have stopped picking and hair pulling almost completely (amazing).”

BWRT is a modern, neuroscience – based psychotherapy. It focuses on rapidly resolving psychological distress by retraining (rewiring) the brains automatic responses to specific triggers. Unlike traditional therapies, BWRT doesn’t require dwelling on past traumas; instead utilises the brains neuroplasticity to create new, more desirable neural pathways, leading to quick and lasting changes in response to individuals challenging situations, anxiety or overcoming unwanted behaviours.
Best for anxiety, phobias, PTSD

Why choose alastair?
“I am not a naturally confident presenter and the nerves definitely take over. Alastair dramatically changed the way I think about presenting, combatting the root cause of my fears and helping change the way I mentally prepare. He helped me strip away the negative and unhelpful thoughts and replaced them with confident and positive messages. Suffice to say my last presentation went amazingly well!”
Jessica Anderson-Ramshall
“Al has changed my life. I have not been able to go on a train for over 20 years. The thought of the doors closing and not being able to get off the train would be an absolutely terrible thought for me. With Al’s help, support and hypnotherapy session this has completely changed. I now get on the train without any fear at all. I enjoy everything about my journey”
Tina Budgen
“I use to avoid things, like going to the Doctors, I was scared to death that I’d need an injection but now I have overcome my fear of needles thanks to Alastair and a hypnotherapy session. After the session I immediately called the Doctors and booked my Flu jab”
