What’s involved?
My sessions are open-ended and intuitive, with a deep understanding that each client is a unique individual who requires a tailored approach. There’s no one-size-fits-all therapuetic method and therefore a variety of techniques can be utilised to navigate the complexities of mental health.
Hypnotherapeutic approaches within sessions include (among others): guided imagery and visualisations, hypnotic dialogue, regression, together with counselling modalities such as ACT, CBT, parts / resource therapy, and Gestalt techniques.
As a lived-experience practitioner, I seek to combine real world experience with theoretical knowledge to offer clients a holistic pathway to healing.
Mitch’s Story
I think for me, healing feels like returning ‘home’ within one’s self. I started experiencing anxiety and depression in my early 20s and went on a seemingly endless search to find a solution as to why I felt the way I did.
I found healing incredibly counter-intuitive along the way and slowly began to realise that the pathway home is more about letting go than holding on. I had been repeating an identity of who I thought I was, only to painstakingly (after over a decade of seraching) realise that I’d been telling myself a fiction. I wasn’t broken and there’s no-one to fix.
The journey home hasn’t been easy, but it has afforded me with invaluable life experience and has helped mould me into the person I am today.
It’s been an interesting ride. I tried a lot of different modalities in an attempt to return to a feeling of wholeness. These included the study and application of Stoic and Buddhist philosophies, breathwork, numerous silent meditation retreats, counselling / psychotherapy, somatic work, hypnotherapy, plant medicine, among many others.
I look foward to sharing my experience and knowledge with you as we discover a path home together.
