Hypnotherapy for insomnia
Struggling with insomnia? Hypnotherapy can be the cure.
If you’re one of the one in three UK adults who experience insomnia, it’s time to look beyond the usual GP recommended treatments and consider hypnotherapy. It’s proven to work – and indeed I myself am a walking, talking, fully functioning proof of the power of hypnosis for insomnia, as it was this problem that led to me seeking help from a hypnotherapist – and which led me to training as a hypnotherapist myself, so I could help others feel the relief I experienced when at last I slept.
Over 16 million adults in the UK report periods of or ongoing insomnia. Bedtime routines may help a little, and sleeping tablets can help you fall asleep, but they don’t get to the root cause of the problem and they can also mean you can wake feeling groggy and tired.
Hypnotherapy can be powerfully effective if you experience either of the following:
- Difficulty falling asleep: do you lie there for hours tossing and turning, desperate for sleep to come?
- Waking in the night: do you find dropping off to sleep easily enough, but then wake in the early hours, night after night? Waking early with a teeming mind is something that happens now and then for most people, in times of stress, but if it’s happening regularly and frequently to you, you should seek help.
Often insomnia is due to worry and anxiety from past or current issues.
Sometimes it is just a bad habit that needs to be broken.
Whichever form of sleeplessness you suffer from, hypnotherapy can be a very effective treatment. While you are in a light state of hypnosis we can address the issues that are bothering you and help you feel less anxious on a general basis. This in turn helps you to achieve an inner peace that leads to a restful night’s sleep
For many, the inability to get a full night’s sleep lasts long after the period of stress that first caused the sleeplessness is over. Using powerful hypnotic techniques, I will help you break away from those expectations and predictions that ‘I am never going to sleep properly again’ and break the habit of sleeplessness, helping you learn how to get to sleep and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to go again.
My approach combines therapy sessions with the use of a self-hypnosis CD for you to listen to at home.
You will soon find that you don’t have to ‘try’ to get to sleep, but will glide gently to sleep, every night. Zzzzzzz……
Treating insomnia usually takes three to five sessions. I am experienced and successful in treating all forms of insomnia, from chronic, long term insomnia to mild sleeplessness – and I CAN help you.

I have to say I couldn't be more impressed and grateful for Sally's help !
I do not crave vaping at all and it feels like I never smoked before after the hypnosis.
I strongly recommend to see Sally as it's not only quitting a bad habit or an addiction,but life changing experience!
She guided me to also practice a nice calming techniques,which I'm grateful for as it really helps me to keep myself at peace and makes me feel more positive.
Thank you Sally for everything ❤️🙏
My daughter (a young adult) had an extreme spider phobia — she would become hysterical and even hyperventilate at the sight of any spider, no matter the size. It was affecting her daily life, and we’d often get the shouts and at any hour for help.
After just two sessions with Sally at Mind Solutions Hypnotherapy, the transformation has been nothing short of a miracle. My daughter is now calm even when seeing a spider — including a few large ones in her bedroom, one that touched her arm on her bed and another on her headboard! Instead of panicking, she calmly asked for a little help catching it because of where it was. She’s even caught a couple herself!
We used to dread September when spiders appear more often, but this year she managed with ease. The change has been incredible, and the relief for our whole family is beyond words.
My only regret is not finding Sally sooner. Sally, what you’ve done for my daughter and our family is truly remarkable — we can’t thank you enough. It’s also comforting to know you’re there if we ever need to reach out again.
As expected, we dug deep and she completely turned my life around. A problem that I had had for over 30 years is now in the past. I feel brand new
I finally feel a sense of freedom and peace and most importantly incredibly Happy!
Thank you so much Sally!!!
Having looked at many websites for phobias, Mind Solutions seemed the most suitable, having seen how bad my son reacted to spiders, I wasn’t sure he could be helped, however after a few sessions with Sally, he was more than happy to remove any spiders from his room without so much as a tiny bit of anxiety. He’d also watched I’m
A celeb for the first time ever! He’s not been able to before due to the spiders on screen. It was amazing to watch the difference it had made.
Having seen that Sally also had helped younger people with anxiety issues I thought it would be an option to help my younger teenage son.
After the pandemic, he’d developed quite intense anxiety and as a family we watched this lovely boy turn into a shell of himself. School was difficult for him and the regular meltdowns were difficult to handle.
I contacted Sally again and made an appointment for an initial session, whereby he was given a some brilliant practical advice and techniques to improve his anxiety as well as developing his trust in this lady where he was listened to, understood and helped in a gorgeous, comfortable, safe environment, rather than clinical one.
After seeing Sally for a little while, he gained the confidence, courage and skills to manage his anxiety, speak up for himself without being angry with it, manage his emotions better and learn basically to be happier with himself.
We as his parents were also able to learn so much to be able to help, rather than make things worse. listening to many things, during these sessions, I realised that one of the best things I could do not only as a parent but for myself, was to have some sessions for myself, I’d become so tightly wound with trying to do the right things by everyone, I’d become angry too quickly, resentful and basically a bit lost in everything.
This wasn’t good for anyone around me, I quickly realised, I needed some guidance and help.
The help I’ve received from Sally has been life changing, I’m 49 and have a lifetime worth of stuff shall we say!
Bit by bit, I feel like Sally has either put me back together or helped me see where I needed to.
This has involved some difficult moments but it’s been so worth it, and I’ve learned more than I thought possible about myself along with the tools I need when I have times that are tricky or I just need to step back and have a breather.
This in turn has then had a huge impact on my relationships with not only my sons, those around me, but with myself. I can’t thank you enough Sally.
If you are thinking about getting help from Sally don’t hesitate and go for it, this Lady is very skilled at what she does and is still learning new techniques to add to her vast knowledge to help with the myriad of different types of problems and challenges that people face. There aren’t many people like her out there and I’d definitely recommend her as I often do to friends and family. ❤️
I WAS a heavy smoker, not anymore. I ve tried to give up before unsuccessfully, I had x2 sessions with Sally and haven't smoked , vaped or used any other nicotine replacement. Just STOPPED, naturally which was massive surprise to me and my family who thought nothing would work.
SO PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR, BOOK IN WITH MIND SOLUTIONS AND ENJOY BEING SMOKE FREE!!
Many Thanks Sally
After struggling with my putting for many years, and it holding me back from ultimately competing at the highest level, it had developed into a more serious form of the 'yips'. I decided to give Hypnosis a go to see if I could put it right...
Sally talked me through the 3-session process in a very easy to understand and simple way, whilst listening to everything I had to say on the matter. We tracked my issue back to a specific putt many years ago and started work on how to change this memory.
Long story short, Sally was brilliant and I can now happily enjoy my putting, whether from 30ft or 3ft. The game I love is now firmly in my control and I am 'yip free' thanks to Sally's help. Can't thank you enough.
I'd recommend Sally to anyone that is considering Hypnotherapy or similar, she is absolutely lovely and very welcoming.
Well that’s where I was when I went to Sally for help with anxiety and particularly around public speaking and interviews. The frustration and upset of going from a confident competent person to someone fighting a flight response in these situations was soul destroying.
Sally listened and took an holistic approach to resolving the source of my anxiety and gave me coping mechanisms in the meantime. I knew through our sessions that I was improving but you don't know how much until you put it to the test.
At the time, I had been with the same business for over 25 years but had an unexpected departure, so the timing could not have been more perfect to have gotten help.. Well, I smashed a couple of interviews and felt brilliant in the process. I actually enjoyed them. It allowed me to think clearly and say everything I wanted to say in a happy and engaged way. In turn, that allowed me to be choosy about the job I took.
I wont hesitate to go back to Sally as there is more we can work on, but what she worked on with me was an absolute game changer.
Through Hypnosis and various other tools Lorraine uses, I began to think differently and I started to focus on getting results. I looked forward to each session as I was not only seeing results but I was also learning so much about nutrition, mindset and motivation.
I not only lost weight but also eat much healthier which has really helped with my energy. My confidence has improved and I am no longer eating rubbish when I feel down. Lorraine is amazing at what she does and the Hypnosis has been life changing!! I highly recommend Lorraine x
I spoke to many therapists before I chose Sally and I'm glad I went with her. Effective, honest and empathetic. 2 sessions were enough to solve the issue
Thanks Sally!
We will definitely keep in touch.
Thank you Sally for all your hard work and determination. XXX

I decided I needed to get some extra help to help him get over this and heard of many positive experiences with Sally.
The treatment has worked wonders and my son is now able to eat with out fear and has a completely different attitude towards food. He is delighted and so are we!
Thank you so much Sally for your amazing work!!!





I found the work we did together made a significant difference to my recovery of CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome).
I also have really effective simple strategies I can use to manage and control my symptoms.

This was in part for professional curiosity, as refer many of my patients to see Sally, but also to deal with a niggling issue.
This was a powerful, energising, and almost overpowering session, and since then life seems to be much calmer and happier since my single session with Sally.
Many thanks Sally, you worked your magic again!



Smoked for 38 years, on 30 cigarettes per day and didn't believe for one moment Hypnotherapy would work...
I have suffered no urges, no cravings and to my surprise, it has been relatively easy.
Thank you Sally,

Best regards
Martin.



I had one session with her on a Saturday afternoon and was up at 7:30 the next morning for my first motorway drive. I handled it perfectly, and ever since I've been out every day, driving and parking (something else I was terrified of).
I would not hesitate to recommend her, whatever the problem is.
