Clinical Hypnotherapy

Our clinical hypnotherapy services combine deep relaxation with targeted suggestions to address psychological and behavioural challenges. We specialise in treating anxiety disorders, phobias, and habit control through evidence-based techniques that access the unconscious mind. Each session is tailored to individual needs, incorporating elements of CBT and NLP to facilitate lasting positive change while maintaining strict professional standards.

Stress Management

Our stress management programs utilise advanced hypnotherapeutic techniques to address anxiety-related conditions and emotional stressors. Through guided relaxation and cognitive restructuring, clients learn effective coping mechanisms for managing work-related stress, panic attacks, and chronic anxiety. The program includes practical tools for maintaining emotional balance and improving overall quality of life through both in-person and remote delivery options.

Phobia Treatment

Specialised treatment for phobias and anxiety disorders using analytical hypnotherapy techniques. Our approach addresses both surface symptoms and underlying causes through regression therapy and cognitive restructuring. We treat common phobias like agoraphobia and claustrophobia alongside more unusual conditions, helping clients regain control through gradual desensitisation and positive reinforcement techniques delivered in a supportive therapeutic environment.

Remote Hypnotherapy

Professional hypnotherapy services delivered through secure video conferencing platforms. This accessible option maintains the same therapeutic standards as in-person sessions while offering flexibility for clients unable to travel. Using WhatsApp or FaceTime, we provide effective treatment for anxiety, habit disorders, and emotional wellbeing issues, ensuring continuity of care for both national and international clients through our established remote therapy framework.

Anxiety Relief

Comprehensive anxiety treatment programs combining hypnotherapy with cognitive-behavioural techniques. We address both acute and chronic anxiety conditions through tailored interventions that target physiological symptoms and psychological patterns. Our approach includes self-hypnosis training and stress management strategies to empower clients with long-term coping mechanisms while maintaining a supportive therapeutic relationship throughout the treatment process.

I have seen different therapists for my OCD in the past with minimal benefit. I dont know if its the hypnosis or Richards input, but the outcome has been really beneficial. I rarely have my intrusive thoughts now and when they come, I use the self hypnosis techniques to eliminate them.

My consultations with Richard J D' Souza was successful from my very first visit. My problem ,what we call in clay shooting , is called, Trigger Freeze..... unable to pull the trigger to take the shot. It would happen both in practice, and competitions. It got me so mentally frustrating that l nearly gave up on the sport that l had enjoyed and loved for many years. After discussion with Richard, he talked me through breath, and mental preparation, to help me relax. The very next day l was shooting a GB selection shoot, l focused on what we had discussed , and l became more confident and the shooting

Richard is a very grounded, experienced individual. He is quick to find root causes to problems and offer solutions in a calm and balanced way. I worked with Richard for approximately one year. I was experiencing a myriad of issues related to self esteem, chronic fatigue, and depression. My interaction with him was limited to counseling from afar as we live in different countries. It was clear he's been treating people with anxiety/depression and fatigue for quite some time; he was quick to recognize patterns and offer the appropriate solution. He also was not afraid to amend his opinion as I

With a little trepidation, myself and my husband booked a session with Richard for our daughter who HAD a severe needle phobia. So bad was her phobia that she has had dental treatment with no anaesthesia and would also hyperventilate and pass out at just the sight of a needle. Today after six sessions of hypnosis our daughter was able to have her first needle after 19 years!!! This is life changing for our daughter and we are so proud of her! This was all down to Richards expertise and professionalism and we cant thank him enough. Highly recommended!!!
