The Therapy Sessions: Your Journey to Transformation
Each therapy session with us is a step towards achieving your personal goals. While we can provide guidance on what a typical session might look like, it’s important to remember that your therapeutic journey is uniquely yours, and we tailor our techniques to suit your specific needs.
What to Expect in a Typical Session
1. Warm Welcome: You’ll always be greeted with a warm and friendly welcome. Stepping into a therapy session can be a mix of anticipation and excitement, so we’re here to make you feel comfortable from the start.
2. Check-In: We’ll begin by checking in with you, asking about any developments or insights since your last session. This helps us track your progress and adjust our approach as needed.
3. Open Dialogue: Throughout the session, we encourage open and honest communication. Feel free to share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This dialogue is essential for understanding your progress and addressing any challenges.
4. Exercises and Insights: Depending on your goals, we’ll engage in specific exercises or discussions designed to promote self-awareness, personal growth, and positive change. These may vary from session to session.
5. Guided Relaxation: Many sessions begin with a guided relaxation exercise. It’s an opportunity for you to unwind, focus, and prepare for the therapeutic work ahead. You’ll find this to be a calming and rejuvenating experience.
6. Therapeutic Techniques: This is where the magic happens. Based on your needs and goals, we’ll introduce and explain the therapeutic techniques we’ll be using in the session. Whether it’s hypnotherapy, mindfulness, psychotherapy techniques, or a combination of methods, we’ll make sure you’re comfortable and informed.
7. Take Homes: Sometimes, we’ll suggest exercises or activities for you to practice between sessions. These “Take Homes” are designed to reinforce and accelerate your progress.
8. Reflection and Feedback: We’ll wrap up each session with a moment of reflection, allowing you to share your thoughts on the session and any insights gained. Your feedback is invaluable in shaping the next steps of your journey.
Remember, each therapy session is as unique as you are. Our approach is flexible and adaptable, ensuring that your individual needs are met.

naomi lynch20/06/2024I could not recommend Ricky more highly. His warm friendly personality instantly puts you at ease, whilst his calm professional demeanour is confident and reassuring. Ricky treated me almost 6 weeks ago, for my nicotine addiction. I had started smoking when I began secondary school, been a blissful smoker way into my late twenties. From my thirties, I started trying to stop, I did the patches, the book, willpower, all failed. A week before my 48th birthday, I saw Ricky (a birthday present to myself), I left that appointment knowing I will never smoke again and the relief was / is unbelievable!
Sarah McDonald24/05/2024Ricky has helped me so much in recent months in my recovery following a serious cycling accident. The techniques he uses - hypnotherapy and guided visualisation are gentle and leave me feeling calmer and able to face my fears and anxieties. Highly recommend Ricky if you need help the way I did.
E m i l y23/05/2024A few months ago I contacted Ricky to help me overcome my nail biting habit using hypnosis. The therapy worked wonders and I have pretty much broken the habit completely. I would recommend this hypnotherapy to anyone looking to break a self destructive habit.
Gabrielle Petherick-white22/05/2024Couldn’t recommend Ricky enough, started sessions with him a while back and had 1-2 sessions a week and it helped me massively, felt refreshed and reset after each session, wouldn’t go to anyone else if I needed more help in the future
Melanie Cheeseman17/02/2024Having lived with ptsd since being involved in a car accident more than 15yrs ago, I was struggling with travelling as a passenger in a car and would be a horrendous, anxious, aggressive person while in that seat. The tension nd stress I would hold in my body throughout the whole journey, would ruin the day/event etc. It was time to change this , it wasn't fair on the people I travelled with and I wasn't being fair to myself either. I had seen Ricky on Facebook and followed him for a while. I thought, 'what the heck, let's give it a go'. Of course I was sceptical but I was open to trying anything, to help me overcome this debilitating ptsd. Nothing had helped so far. Ricky was extremely helpful, he explained what the process was and what would happen during our sessions, he was very calm, friendly and approachable. I felt like I could tell him anything, putting my complete trust in him. After one session, I honestly don't know how he's done it or what he did, but I have been able to travel as a passenger on short and longer journeys without the anxiety and need to control the driver and their actions. I get to my destination, get out the car feeling relaxed, instead of exhausted and tearful. Sometimes, I can't even remember getting from A to B! Ricky is a wizard and I am forever grateful that I found him!
Joanne Straffon15/02/2024Been almost 5 weeks since I went to see Ricky for hypnotherapy to stop smoking. Ricky is so welcoming and very easy to get along with, he makes you feel totally comfortable throughout the whole experience and is also on hand to reassure you during after care if needed. Thank you so much Ricky.. Would 100 % recommend hypnotherapy is considering quitting smoking.
Debbie Davies19/11/2023I saw Ricky with a 15 year anxiety phobia which was removed within 30 mins. Ricky is professional and punctual and has a way of making you feel really at ease. It was a very relaxing session with the ultimate outcome. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you Ricky!
Marie Webb16/11/2023Soo what can I say!! I have suffered from big anxiety from driving even tho I passed my test 6 years ago I had an enormous fear of driving on my own. After 2 sessions with Ricky all my fear has gone and I'm driving without a problem! Ricky makes you feel at ease throughout his sessions and has really worked wonders with me!! Its changed the way I look at things and my life for the better. I would recommend Calmer minds for anyone that's having similar problems.
Jackie Sinnott10/11/2023As an anxious learner driver the driving audio is helping massively. Even after listening once it helped me to relax and ground myself!
Barry Leonard05/11/2023Getting older the stresses and stains of life seemed to catch up with me, that coupled with isolation and lockdown through the pandemic I had lost all desire, drive and direction in my life. I felt flat and lost, lost of confidence and purpose. I knew something needed to change, I needed to change and that’s when Calmer minds came into my life and changed everything. Calmer Minds have been absolutely fantastic start to finish, form first initial consultation all the way through my weekly sessions with after care and support. The experience was very welcoming, friendly and uplifting to let go of a lot of the negative self imposed mental barriers that were holding me back and has helped me gain confidence and self belief back. The process has undoubtedly helped me regain my confidence and self belief back, I handle the stresses of everyday living and a high pressure career with more ease and have actually thrived and performed above a level I haven’t in years. I would most definitely recommend everyone no matter what you’re going through how big or small, go talk to Calmer Minds, working with them has changed my life drastically.
