Hypnotherapy for Children
My experience of working with children of all ages and various issues has been growing extensively since 2010.
Personally, I find they are wonderful to work with because their imaginations are vast and they don’t tend to have such heavy adult perspectives of the issues at hand or how hypnosis can help them – their expectations are much more open to the help at hand.
Working with children in today’s society is one of the most rewarding aspects of being a Clinical Hypnotherapist.
Although their life experience is much shorter – children, be it teens or younger, still experience about 95% of the same issues that adults do. Yet unfortunately, as either the the parents or guardians, you will find relatively few regulated Hypnotherapists, who are experience and confident in helping or working with them.
Types of Issues that can be addressed using Hypnotherapy for children:
- Anxiety
- Anger issues
- Bedwetting
- Bullying
- Confidence and self-esteem
- Depression
- Exam stress
- Fears and phobias
- Nervous tics and bodily twitches
- Panic attacks
- PTSD – coping after a traumatic event or loss
- Skin conditions
- Sleep strategies
- Stress release.
After 3 previous therapists
After 3 previous therapists over 2 years, Miranda is the first to actually help my 15 year old daughter. She has been able to talk to Miranda and says she is kind, patient, understanding and welcoming. I have seen the changes in my daughter, she is now going to school much more regularly, she is happier (diagnosed with ASD, ADHD, depression and anxiety) and is making an effort to catch up with friends. Miranda has given us lots of fabulous advice that works and provides a relaxed, comfortable environment. Thank you.

Miranda is honestly one of a kind
Miranda is honestly one of a kind. She started seeing my son 3 years ago when he was 10 years old. He is Autistic Level 2, as well as ADHD, Learning delays, extreme anxiety and trauma. When he first started seeing Miranda he was in constant flight or fight mode. He was being suspended from school every second day due to absconding, he couldn’t write or read, he was extremely physical towards myself, he couldn’t explain how he was feeling at all and we were extremely lost. We had tried just about everything! I still remember the day I felt the calm re-enter our house. It was after his third visit and he started communicating on how he was feeling and really opening up about lots of things. Fast forward to today and he has not been suspended once this year, he is thriving in his school work and recently received a certificate congratulating him on his attendance, behaviour and resilience, as well as his commitment to making positive changes. He proudly tells everyone how much Miranda has helped him and that he wouldn’t be the person he is today without her help when we recommend her. Even our GP is constantly blown away by the changes he sees each time we see him. Not only this we all now see Miranda and we definitely wouldn’t be the family we are today had we not been introduced to her. I personally am extremely grateful for all that Miranda has done to help us, truly can never say thank you enough!

I am so happy we found Miranda!
I am so happy we found Miranda!
Our daughter’s fear of dogs and animals was growing as she did. We were desperate & needed help.
4 months on – our daughter held a dog, in her own time and her own way. She finally has her confidence for play dates and a happier child.
Thanks so much Miranda. We are forever greatful.

We were referred to Miranda by a Gastroenterologist
Miranda has worked wonders with our 11 year old boy who was suffering with a complex pain issue. We were referred to Miranda by a Gastroenterologist and I highly recommend her service. She is calm, insightful and her guiding support is a blessing.
We can’t thank you enough, Miranda!

I first took my son to Miranda about 5 years ago
I first took my son to Miranda about 5 years ago, it was life changing for him (and me as his mother). From this I have referred so many people to Miranda that I have lost count. She has helped my family and I, plus so many of my extended family and friends for a wide variety of issues from anxiety, grief and weight management.
Forever grateful.

Miranda is amazing, puts you at ease straight away, really listens. My eight year old son is completely trusting her as she helps him through ‘his stuff’. Thank you Miranda.

He really is experiencing being a child and having fun
Miranda, Liam has accomplished so much more in the short time since he saw you. He goes out feeling quite confident, on his own with friends. He really is experiencing being a child and having fun. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have recommended you to our friends and know you are there if I need any help or advice in the future.

You have helped me to be able to leave my family
Hi Miranda. You have helped me to be able to leave my family and know that I will be ok without them. When I went to camp I remembered what you said and I felt relaxed and safe. I had one of the best times of my life, and could never have done it without your help. I thank you very much.
