Becoming Changed for Good
With my expertise, help and support, I can help you overcome the invisible barriers and self-doubt holding you back from greater visibility and influence. Let's get you to a place where you feel confident enough to pursue the leadership opportunities you want, or make the professional advancements that, until now, you may have been unconsciously sabotaging.
HOW DOES HYPNOTHERAPY WORK?
Hypnotherapy is a powerful yet gentle process that allows us to communicate directly with your subconscious mind – the part of you that stores memories, habits, and beliefs that influence your daily actions and feelings. For ambitious professionals seeking greater visibility and influence, hypnotherapy provides a direct pathway to understanding and transforming the invisible barriers holding you back.
Always in Control
During hypnotherapy, you remain completely aware and in control throughout the entire process. Rather than surrendering control, you're actually gaining it by accessing parts of your mind that are typically outside your conscious awareness. Think of it as a deeply focused, relaxed state – similar to being absorbed in a compelling book or film, where you're both present and simultaneously transported.
The Power of Your Imagination
The process involves using your imagination to allow yourself to relax deeply and engage with the experience. As an ambitious professional, you likely already have a powerful imagination that helps you envision goals and solutions. In hypnotherapy, we harness this same capacity to create positive change. Your subconscious mind responds wonderfully to imagery and metaphor, making this an ideal approach for transformation.
Understanding Parts Work
We all have different "parts" within us – some that push us forward and others that hold us back out of a misguided attempt to protect us. For instance, there may be a part of you that prevents you from being more visible or stepping into leadership, perhaps fearing judgment or failure. In hypnotherapy, we can communicate directly with these parts to understand their positive intentions and negotiate new, more supportive behaviours.
For example, a part that causes you to procrastinate on high-visibility projects may actually be trying to protect you from criticism based on past experiences. By speaking to this part, understanding its concerns, and updating its approach, we can transform this protection into empowerment.
The Subconscious Mind and Memory
Your subconscious mind stores every experience you've ever had, along with the emotions and beliefs formed around those experiences. Unlike the logical, analytical conscious mind, your subconscious works associatively, connecting experiences across time that share emotional similarities.
For ambitious professionals, early experiences of being visible, taking risks, or asserting leadership may have created subconscious patterns that no longer serve you. Perhaps being singled out in class once led to embarrassment, creating a pattern of avoiding the spotlight. Or maybe watching a parent struggle with work-life balance created a subconscious association between success and burnout.
In our work together, we gently explore these stored memories and patterns, reframing them with your adult perspective and wisdom. This allows your subconscious to update its understanding, releasing old limitations and embracing new possibilities for success without compromise.
Through this process, you'll experience a profound sense of alignment between your conscious goals and your subconscious patterns – creating sustainable transformation that supports your professional excellence and personal wellbeing.
COACHING & MENTORING APPROACH
I believe in a balanced approach to transformation that addresses both your subconscious patterns and conscious choices. While hypnotherapy helps resolve past influences, coaching and mentoring equip you with practical tools to navigate present challenges and future opportunities.
Personalized Guidance & Support
My sessions are completely bespoke, adapting to what you need in each moment of your journey. Sometimes you have all the answers within you, requiring only a skilled coach to ask the right questions and help you discover your own solutions. Other times, you may benefit from direct mentoring, where I share proven strategies from my two decades of experience helping ambitious professionals overcome similar challenges.
Practical Tools for Everyday Excellence
I provide conscious mind techniques that help you stay present, focused, and in command of your thoughts throughout your professional day. These practical tools allow you to:
- Quickly interrupt negative thinking patterns before they derail your confidence
- Transform unhelpful habits into productive routines that support your goals
- Maintain emotional equilibrium during high-pressure situations
- Project authentic authority in moments when visibility matters most
Bridging Past and Present for Complete Transformation
While our subconscious work addresses the root causes from your past, these conscious strategies empower you to live fully in the present. This dual approach creates comprehensive transformation—healing what came before while building new capabilities for what lies ahead.
Mastering Anxiety and Creating Confidence
Anxiety essentially happens when your imagination creates futures you don't want. Through our work together, you'll learn to take back control of your mind's natural forecasting abilities, directing them toward positive outcomes rather than catastrophic ones.
As you practice these techniques, you'll develop genuine personal mastery—the ability to choose your response in any situation rather than being driven by automatic reactions. This level of self-regulation is particularly valuable for ambitious professionals, allowing you to remain centred and effective even in challenging circumstances.
The result is a profound sense of confidence that comes not from ignoring difficulties but from knowing you have the internal resources to handle whatever arises—professionally and personally.
THE MIND-BODY CONNECTION
Healing at the Cellular Level
For the past five years, I've been deepening my work to include powerful somatic approaches that address how stress, trauma, and limiting beliefs are stored not just in your mind, but in your physical body. This dimension of transformation is often overlooked yet crucial for ambitious professionals seeking sustainable success.
Beyond Logical Understanding
When you experience reactions that seem disproportionate to the situation—like intense anxiety before a presentation despite your expertise, or physical tension when stepping into visibility—you're experiencing the body's stored responses to past events.
You might logically know there's no real danger in speaking to your team or pursuing a promotion, yet your body responds as if there is. This disconnect happens because:
- Your conscious mind knows there's no threat
- Your subconscious mind is running outdated safety programs
- Your body is physically responding with symptoms like a racing heart, shallow breathing, or tension
Releasing What's Stored in the Body
Through specialized somatic techniques, we work directly with your body's nervous system to release these stored patterns at a cellular level. This includes:
- Targeted breathwork that signals safety to your nervous system
- Self-soothing practices that interrupt the stress response
- Gentle movement patterns that release tension where trauma is held
- Body-focused awareness that rebuilds the connection between mind and physical sensations
Transforming Professional Challenges
This approach is particularly valuable for ambitious professionals because it addresses challenges at their true source:
- Public speaking anxiety dissolves when your body no longer triggers fight-or-flight responses
- Leadership presence naturally emerges when your body communicates confidence instead of tension
- Decision-making improves when stress hormones aren't flooding your system
- Authentic influence grows when others subconsciously sense your genuine embodied confidence
Integration for Complete Transformation
When we combine this somatic work with hypnotherapy and coaching, we create comprehensive transformation:
- Hypnotherapy updates the subconscious programming
- Coaching provides conscious strategies and accountability
- Somatic work ensures your body actually feels safe living this new reality
This integrated approach means your transformation is complete—mind, body, and behaviour all aligned toward your success without the hidden costs of stress and burnout.
HOW WE BEGIN
We start with a complimentary 30-minute discovery call to explore your needs and ensure we're the right fit to work together. This is a genuine consultation, not a sales conversation. There's never any pressure—you'll intuitively know if this approach resonates with you and if you're ready for transformation.
During this call, we'll discuss your professional challenges, desired outcomes, and the most appropriate package for your situation. As an experienced practitioner with over two decades of expertise in transformation work, my investment levels reflect the depth and effectiveness of my approach. However, I believe everyone deserves access to quality support, and I'm happy to recommend trusted colleagues if my programs aren't the right match for your current needs.
This comprehensive approach—combining hypnotherapy, coaching, and somatic work (nervous system regulation)—creates remarkable results for ambitious professionals ready to break through invisible barriers.

WHAT MY CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
CONFIDENCE
"I came to Bertie having struggled with confidence and self-belief since childhood. My anxiety had really started to inhibit me and stop me from achieving my goals in life. With Bertie’s help, I was able to review all the moments in my life, which were now creating issues for me and causing my negative thoughts and fears to run my life. The session was extremely insightful and allowed me to look at myself in a manner and aspect that I had simply not envisaged before. One by one we ripped up my negative memories and put them in the metaphorical shredder.
After the session, I felt instantly happier and released from my pain and then after 21 days of listening to my recording, I felt like a completely different person. It’s like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I’m showing a real sense of confidence and self-belief in my own abilities both at work and in my personal life. The changes in me have been noticed by both my friends and my colleagues, and I really can’t thank Bertie enough. It really is fantastic to experience such great shifts in such a short space of time and to feel so positive about the future. I am so grateful for the fantastic support and I am very happy to recommend Bertie."
