Supporting children with emotional wellbeing, confidence and behaviour
Children can experience challenges just as adults do, but may not always have the words or understanding to express how they feel.
Early support can make a significant difference, helping children develop healthy patterns, confidence and emotional resilience.
At Hypnotherapy Dunedin, I provide a calm, safe and supportive space where children can begin to feel more at ease and in control.
One or more of these may apply to your child or children:
- anxiety or worries
- difficulty sleeping
- low confidence or self-esteem
- being easily overwhelmed
- behavioural challenges
- sensitivity or strong emotional reactions
- difficulty settling or relaxing
“Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded.”

My Approach to Hypnotherapy
My work combines clinical hypnotherapy with a psychologically informed approach and gentle, age-appropriate techniques.
With a Master’s degree in Psychology and a degree in Social Work, along with over 20 years of experience, and training in early childhood, I focus on helping children:
- feel safe and supported
- develop confidence and emotional resilience
- manage worries and fears
- build healthier patterns early in life
