About Envision Hypnotherapy

Envision Hypnotherapy is run by Gerry McAuley

A bit about me

My road to becoming a hypnotherapist began in the early 1980s when I first discovered and began to practice self-hypnosis. Working as a management trainer and business consultant, I developed an interest in Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and trained as an NLP Practitioner in 1998. I then used NLP in my management consulting work with blue chip companies and trained as a life coach in 2000. From there it was a natural step for me to train and become a qualified Hypnotherapist – which I did began practising as a hypnotherapist in 2010

  • Registered with the General Hypnotherapy Register (GHR)

How I work – Solutions Focused Hypnotherapy

What drives everything I do as a hypnotherapist, is my desire to help people to change effectively and quickly… and to do so in a way that is both enduring and right for them. I pride myself on getting great results and exceeding client expectations, and to ensure this, my sessions last 1.5 hours rather than the usual 1-hour model. In addition, I provide recordings to use at home to support the work completed in the treatment sessions.

The process begins with a free, confidential 30-minute telephone or video call consultation to clarify client needs, answer questions and indicate treatment costs and number of sessions required. I also want to ensure that a potential client is sufficiently motivated to change. If I do not think I can help someone, I will say so upfront at this initial consultation stage.

This initial call is also an opportunity to explain what hypnosis and hypnotherapy actually is and isn’t, as there are a lot of myths and misconceptions! What I do is not the same as the stage hypnotism someone may have seen in a show or on TV! Hypnosis is a very safe, relaxing, and powerful process that allows you to be in control.

I tailor treatment to each client’s needs, situation and personality.  During the treatment process, I will also show each client practical, powerful techniques and ways to continue to help themselves long after our work together is completed.

Treatments

While I provide effective treatment for a wide range of issues, I specialise in helping people to:

  • break free of the prison that is anxiety and depression (and the effects this has on their sleep, eating, relationships and more);
  • overcome fears, phobias and PTSD.
  • stop unwanted habits such as drinking, drug taking and overeating
  • enabling children to overcome issues such as bullying, night terrors and exam stress.

I treat both adults and children (aged 8+ and always accompanied by a parent/guardian).
