About Us
At Blue Sky Hypnotherapy, our about us mission is rooted in the belief that personal transformation can be achieved through targeted mental interventions. We embody a passion for utilizing hypnotherapy to foster wellness across various dimensions of life. Their journey into this field was spurred by a shared fascination with the human psyche and its capacity for change.
Blue Sky Hypnotherapy employs Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and Clinical Hypnotherapy, techniques supported by a wealth of research indicating their efficacy over traditional psychoanalytic approaches. This modern form of hypnotherapy concentrates on desired future outcomes rather than past traumas, facilitating rapid progress by focusing on solutions, not problems.

From managing anxiety, depression, and phobias, to overcoming addictive behaviors and improving sports performance, our approach is designed to unlock your potential. The therapeutic environment is crafted to ensure comfort and privacy, with policies strictly adhering to professional ethical standards to safeguard client confidentiality.
Further enhancing our therapeutic repertoire, we integrate Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which complements hypnotherapy by modifying thought patterns and behaviors. This synergy amplifies the effectiveness of our interventions, making sustainable change not just a possibility, but a reality for our clients.
What is Your Core Philosophy?
The core of our philosophy is encapsulated by the idea that therapy should be a collaborative effort between the therapist and client, focused on crafting a future where the individual feels empowered and liberated from their constraints.

What is Hypnotherapy and How Does it Work?
Hypnotherapy is a state of deep relaxation that is natural and safe making us learn about us. It is a state of mind between waking and sleeping, where a person is almost in a day dream. Aware of the physical sensations and surroundings, and yet more receptive to therapeutic suggestions.
Once in a trance with help from the therapist, the brain’s subconscious is open to suggestion. Through this process of suggestion we can address many issues in a natural and safe way. Hypnotherapy is a totally natural form of therapy and some issues can be dealt with over a short period of time. I can provide a safe and comfortable space to enable you to relax and begin positive changes in your life.
Our Practice Policies
At our practice, we uphold a set of standards designed to ensure the highest level of care and professionalism for our clients. Below, we outline our key policies regarding confidentiality, appointments, fees, cancellations, and additional information. These policies are intended to provide clarity and set expectations for our clients, ensuring a smooth and effective therapeutic experience.
Confidentiality
Confidentiality is a cornerstone of our practice. It is respected, valued, and protected at all times. According to the professional code of ethics for hypnotherapists, sharing client information and records without written consent is strictly prohibited. This rule ensures that all personal details shared during sessions remain secure and private. However, there are exceptional circumstances under which a therapist may disclose information: if you are at risk of harm to yourself or others, the therapist is legally obliged to report this.
Making an Appointment
We have made the process of scheduling sessions as convenient as possible. Many of our sessions are now conducted online, allowing flexibility and ease of access from the comfort of your home. Booking forms are readily available on our website for your convenience. For those who prefer or require in-person interactions, face-to-face sessions may also be offered, depending on your therapist’s availability and your specific needs.
Fees and Payments
Our payment system is designed to be straightforward and secure. Session fees are generally paid in advance through internet banking or the online booking form. We accept all major credit cards to accommodate various payment preferences. Upon booking your appointment, a confirmation will be sent to you via text or email 48 hours before your scheduled session. Please note that there is generally no refund if a session is canceled within 48 hours of your appointment time.
Cancellation Policy
We understand that circumstances may arise that necessitate the cancellation of an appointment. We appreciate as much notice as possible if you need to cancel. There is typically no charge for appointments canceled at least 7 days prior to the scheduled time. This policy helps us manage our schedule efficiently and offers the opportunity for other clients to book sessions during those times.
Information
Once your appointment is confirmed, you will receive a confirmation letter and a questionnaire. It is crucial to complete and return this questionnaire before your session, as it allows us to tailor the therapy to your specific needs and maximize your therapy time. The information you provide is vital for us to understand your situation fully and plan the most effective treatment strategy. In rare cases, the responses may indicate that we are not the best fit to assist you. If this occurs, we will contact you to discuss alternative options.

This rebate allows you to receive the maximum benefit from your private medical fund, reducing the financial burden of your therapy.
