Are you sick of tossing and turning at night when you go to bed? Tired of being exhausted at work and around your family?

Are you starting to feel on edge or like you’re at wits’ end? Would you give anything for just one night of restful, restorative sleep?

If those questions are hitting a little too close to home, then you may be suffering from insomnia.

Insomnia is a sleep disorder that makes it hard to fall asleep, stay asleep, or both. Even if you do sleep, you won’t wake up feeling well-rested and you’ll have trouble concentrating during the day.

Insomnia can be short-term (acute) or it can last a long time (chronic). Chronic insomnia often begins with a temporary life change that impairs your sleep – such as a new child, a new job, stress, or grief – and then the sleeplessness becomes more permanent.

Insomnia can also be a ‘secondary’ symptom of another health condition or mental disorder. Insomnia is estimated to impact a whopping one-third of adults in their lifetime!*

You only need to walk down the medication aisle of your local supermarket to realise there are literally 100s of different products for insomnia, ranging from quick fix home remedies to over-the-counter pills. The issue with these stop-gap approaches is that you often wake up feeling worse than when you went to sleep, and they rarely work over the long term.

Strategic psychotherapy and clinical hypnotherapy give you the tools to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer on a regular basis. I’ll help you discover what these tools are, how to use them, and how to target the root cause of your insomnia so you achieve better sleep for life. You’ll wake up feeling rested and restored, day after day… and you’ll never worry about going without a good night’s sleep ever again!

I understand insomnia can completely destroy your quality of life. You feel like you’re running on fumes and wonder if you’ll ever experience that well-rested sensation again.

How I Treat Insomnia With Hypnotherapy

While there are many different treatments available for insomnia, traditional approaches often fail over the long term. That’s because they focus on alleviating symptoms rather than addressing the underlying cause.

One of the most common traditional treatments is medication. A lot of the time when people who suffer from insomnia go to the doctor, they get prescribed melatonin or even stronger solutions. But while these can be effective in the short term, they’re not a sustainable solution.

Over time, your body becomes tolerant of the medication, and you require higher and higher doses to achieve the same effect. This can lead to dependency and other potentially dangerous side effects. Not only that, but insomnia often returns when you stop taking whatever you’ve been prescribed.

I take a more holistic approach to treatment because it’s proven to have a higher success rate over the long term. Insomnia is often caused by multiple factors, so it’s critical to treat both the body and the mind to properly address the root cause of your sleeplessness. I use a powerful combination of two evidence-based therapies to bring about positive change:

Clinical hypnotherapy – a simple technique I use to help you achieve a state of ‘focused absorption’, where your critical mind gets a little rest. It allows your mind to become clearer, calmer, and more relaxed. Once you learn to achieve this state outside of our sessions, you’ll get to sleep faster and stay asleep longer.

Strategic psychotherapy – this seeks to change the cognitive processes and habits that cause insomnia. It works to improve your sleep hygiene, soothe stressors in your life, and put your mind at rest so you can enjoy restful, restorative sleep.

This combination of techniques will calm your mind and body while treating the root cause of your insomnia. You’ll finally be able to lie down, switch off the lights (and your mind), and get to sleep! And you’ll feel happier, better rested, and enjoy life to your full potential!

Real Success Stories

Hear from some of the people that I have helped to treat their Insomnia symptoms and other conditions

Stephanie’s empathetic listening, her subtle understanding and strategic Psychotherapy helped me to realise patterns in my behaviour which evoked unpleasant emotions. Thanks to Hypnotherapy, I went through the process of changes very quickly (a few sessions) and I became a more efficient and confident person, who lives a much more satisfying life than before. The results have been incredible.

 

Klara Coleman

Stephanie has changed my life for the better! I am so impressed and grateful for how quickly my situation was able to turn around with the guidance and help of Stephanie and our hypnotherapy sessions! It is amazing to see how clearly my sessions with Stephanie were the catalyst for this change in me. I will be forever grateful and I look forward to seeing Stephanie again to help in other areas of my life.

I would highly recommend Stephanie as a hypnotherapist if you wanted to make a change in your life by letting go of something negative and replacing it with something positive. In my case it was giving up an addiction to lollies (not being able to stop at one) and procrastination and replacing it with a healthier lifestyle that is more productive.

FAQ

What is insomnia?
Insomnia is a sleep condition relating to a lack of sleep quality, quantity, or both. It’s often characterised by difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up feeling excessively tired.
What are the symptoms of insomnia?
  • Difficulty falling asleep
  • Not feeling well-rested
  • Waking up often during the night
  • Waking up too early in the morning
  • Being tired during the day
  • Difficulty concentrating, focusing, or memory problems
  • Constant yawning
  • Irritability
  • Mood swings
  • Ongoing anxiety about a lack of sleep
How effective is hypnotherapy for insomnia?
Very! In therapeutic settings, hypnotherapy has a high success rate for treating insomnia. A 2022 review published in the Journal of Scientific Health^ found that hypnotherapy was effective in providing benefits that reduce insomnia.
Is hypnotherapy safe for insomnia?
Yes, hypnotherapy is very safe for insomnia. Hypnotherapy creates a safe space where you feel comfortable, calm, and at ease. A 2015 review published in the academic journal Complementary Therapies in Medicine# found there were no adverse effects of hypnotherapy when treating insomnia.
What does a typical session look like?
Sessions last for 60 minutes. This gives me time to treat both the mind and the body.
(Please note: You may leave within 30 minutes of the first session if you find that it is not for you and there will be no cost. The first session lasts for 90 minutes. All other sessions are 60 minutes each.)

Beginning: Typically, each session begins with a discussion of what’s happened since your last session. This gives us a clear idea of the progress you feel you’ve made and what areas we need to focus on.

Middle: You’ll sit back, relax, and listen as you receive hypnotherapy (most clients’ favourite part of the session!).

End: Finally, we’ll discuss what actions need to take place between this session and your next to ensure your healing continues.

How many sessions will I need?
It’s important to understand everyone has a different set of circumstances. That’s why I tailor each treatment program according to your individual needs. As a general guide, most people develop the tools they need to achieve restful sleep and overcome insomnia after 3 to 6 sessions.
Can sessions be done online?
Hypnotherapy can be done either online or in person. Both forms are equally effective, so it’s really up to you. I’m located in Menai, NSW.

Some people prefer online treatment because they don’t have to leave the comfort of their own homes. Others prefer to come in person because they’re more relaxed face-to-face and they don’t have to use video call technology.

How do I get in touch with you?
Simply send me a message using the enquiry/booking form, and I’ll be in touch! If you’d like to have a quick chat prior to booking a session, you can also call me on (02) 9543 4433. I look forward to meeting you.
