Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy is a very useful adjunct to counselling. Its use can enable access to deep seated subconscious patterns created through trauma or repetitive behaviours from yourself or others to manage many persistant conditions. Through deep relaxation the subconscious is more open to suggestion which creates a willingness for change.

Qualifications & Experience

Qualifications & Experience

Working with you to create a deeply relaxing and safe space, I am able to listen as together as we uncover the starting points of those unwanted behaviours or difficult situations.  Sometimes this brings up other things for you.  With my counselling background, I am able to manage any eventuality in a safe and supportive manner, enabling you to work though and let go of those things which no longer bring value to your life and to leave the past in the past.

I have always taken a keen interest in the development of Counselling and Hypnotherapy in Australia. As a result I have been a board member (Vice-President) and supervisor with the Clinical Hypnotherapists Council of Australia.   Until recently I was a committee member of the Australian Association of Clinical Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy and a registered supervisor for other practitioners within the organisation.   You will find Maggie listed on the AACHP and ANHR websites as a practicing professional member where she is bound by a strict code of conduct and required to update her professional skills.

I am also a fully qualified and registered counsellor and a member of the Australian Counselling Association. You will also find her listed on the ACA website.

I bring a depth of experience in both hypnotherapy and counselling. I have reinvented myself a number of times through my life. I have been a teacher in both primary and high schools in both Steiner and the private school sectors. I was employed by UnitingCare Burnside for over 10 years in a variety of roles where I worked with the Aboriginal community and young people developing and delivering school based programs as well as undertaking research projects. I have worked extensively with Relationships Australia supporting individuals affected by relationship breakdown and also with DV Connect as a Trauma Specialist.

My clinic is in West End, Brisbane and is accessible by public transport on Montague Road.  There is also car parking available.

I also conduct sessions on-line and have a number of international clients. Location is not an issue.

Counselling and Hypnotherapy

Do I need counselling or hypnotherapy?

We all reach various points in our lives where life appears to overwhelm and confuse us.  Are you wondering what to do now or how to help yourself move through this?  Or perhaps you seem to have lost your motivation or inspiration.

As an experienced and qualified trauma therapist and counsellor with over 35 years experience working with a wide range of individuals, I bring many modalities and techniques, including hypnotherapy, to support your return to wellness and happiness so that you can life to your fullest.

I work with anxiety, stress, trauma and relationship difficulties to support your return to health and well-being.

No matter how big or small the apparent issue, when you book an appointment for hypnotherapy or counselling you can be assured you are in good hands.

Why use Counselling or Hypnotherapy?

It's drug-free, safe and can creates rapid change.  It enables you to work with your strengths, not against them, by discovering the underlying causes of the behaviours you're wanting to change.  It enables you to let go of those recurring negative thoughts and shift the self into a more positive way of relating to the self and others.

Challenges may come in many different forms - drinking too much, smoking, procrastination.  Or perhaps lack of motivation with loosing weight, exercise or managing a difficult relationship.  Others may be looking to create a deeper, more meaningful life.  You know that feeling - you have everything but are still not happy.

At my clinic in West End, Brisbane, we work together to get at those underlying causes of the discomfort you're experiencing and do something about them with hypnosis.

As a fully qualified trauma counsellor and hypnotherapist with many years of experience you will be guided to achieve the outcomes you'd like in your life.

Testimonials

To a fantastic lady and highly professional hypnotherapist - Maggie helped to save my sanity and my life! To anyone who needs or just wants help, don't hesitate to contact Maggie. You will be more than thankful you did.

When I first approached Maggie I felt lost, void of passion and was struggling to manage my business responsibilities. My staff didn't have the necessary direction and I couldn't find the strength to guide them. Maggie worked with me to identify the underlying issues that caused the doubt and lack of self-confidence and then used hypnosis to help me let go of emotions that were holding me back. Over a number of sessions, she was able to rebuild my confidence and equipped me with exercises to cope with some of my day-to-day challenges. Now work is heading in the right direction, I've addressed some long overdue staffing issues and when a recent challenge presented itself (one that would have broken me a few months ago), I not only took it in my stride, but used it as an opportunity to improve and avoid such issues in the future.I couldn't recommend Maggie highly enough!

I have no hesitation in recommending Maggie to anyone suffering from anxiety/depression. The sense of calm and relaxation is a testament to her skill, not to mention her ability to grasp your situation and to deliver a satisfactory summation & remedy. Thank you Maggie"

Really helpful, Professional and genuinely has her clients well being at heart. I have seen her many times over a few years and would recommend her highly. I was struggling with issues that were holding me back from moving forward after a loss. Life had started to lack laughter. After a couple of sessions I started to see my old happy self coming back. I was able to get going and start my own business and deal with my doubts. I now see her to keep me on track when things start to pile up. You are always in control of the session but you leave so relaxed and in the days following you start to see your stress dissipate and a more positive outlook move in. She has helped me so much and I cannot speak highly enough on her insight and understanding. Thank you Maggie

Previous Client

Absolutely amazing. Honestly, I didn't expect much from hypnosis and have not tried it before. When looking for someone I noticed a lot of websites saying 'they could fix all my problems' which made me skeptical. I found Maggie who seemed more interested in helping me become a stronger, better version of me so that I could cope with what ever life threw at me. At no point when faced with a difficult situation outside of sessions did i feel a need to run to an appointment to fix whatever I was experiencing. I regularly found myself using the tools and visualisation techniques from the hypnosis - sometimes without even realising I was doing it!I had a bad relationship with food which cause excessive overeating and emotional eating. Since my sessions with Maggie, this has since changed. The little combative voice in my head saying 'you know you want a pizza' when I am eating a salad every time is completely manageable and almost non existent now. Funnily enough, I only went to see her for this problem, but she identified and linked so many things to my food issues and we worked on all of them. She has changed my life so much and feel so much more confident and in control in everyday life.

I've been working with Maggie on and off for a few years now. She really helps me to push through any barriers and blockages that come up from time to time. Maggie is very professional but with a warmth that assures me she has my best interest at heart and is aligned to me achieving my outcome. It's always a pleasure working with her and I've found that her skill in this area improves each time I see her, which helps me to achieve things faster in my own life. I would highly recommend Maggie to anyone who is looking to get more from life, experience greater quality and emotional happiness. I appreciate all your help Maggie, thank you!!
