HEATHER SINFIELD

BSc. (Hons),  HPD, DipCHyp, NLP Prac

With a degree in Psychology, I spent several years supporting bereaved parents through the Child Death Helpline based at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

From there, I moved into a more corporate role, gaining experience and an understanding of the stresses, anxieties and demands of both corporate and personal lives. There then came the realisation that something was missing from my life and needed to move into a more fulfilling role that could help people make fundamental changes in their lives.

After suffering from Covid I took the decision to train as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist with the world-renowned Quest Institute where I was fortunate to be able to be taught by the founder of Cognitive Hypnotherapy and WordWeaving – Trevor Silvester.

Studying Cognitive Hypnotherapy has changed my life and the Quest Institute has taught me many different techniques from a range of different approaches including hypnotherapy, NLP and positive psychology. This means that I can tailor my approach to the individual and treat the person within their view of the world.

Nothing is out of Reach with Cognitive Hypnotherapy…

Using a large number of techniques from Hypnotherapy, Positive Psychology, Evolutionary Psychology, Cognitive Behaviour and NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming) I work with each client as an individual and create a bespoke treatment plan based on how they view the world. 

As a practitioner of Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy, I believe that each client already has the answers within that they need to help themselves. I work with my clients to develop their own toolkit and develop their strengths and coping strategies in order that they can achieve the change they desire and live the life they looking for..

People enter into a state of trance every day of their lives without realising it.  Have you ever driven a familiar journey and when you reach your destination have no recollection of the journey?  This is an example of everyday trance and it is this state that I will utilise with you in your sessions with me.

What is Cognitive Hypnotherapy?

What is Cognitive Hypnotherapy?

“Our approach is significantly different from the traditional schools of Hypnotherapy. We draw on recent discoveries and ideas from Evolutionary Psychology, Positive Psychology, Cognitive theory and NLP and incorporate them into a modern idea of hypnosis to provide a framework for therapy.

 

We do not advocate one single approach as the answer to all of life’s problems. We introduce our students to a range of techniques drawn from different disciplines that we have found to be the most effective tools for change so far. These are moulded into an approach tailored for the specific needs of each client.” Trevor Silvester

AN EVIDENCE-BASED THERAPY

Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy (QCH) launched a unique research pilot in 2011.

Using a team of QCH therapists; clients with anxiety and depression were assessed using the same outcome measures currently used to assess the effectiveness of talking therapies within the NHS. The pilot study was published in the Mental Health Review Journal in 2015.

It recorded that, using 118 cases measuring the effectiveness of Cognitive Hypnotherapy for the treatment of depression and anxiety, 71% considered themselves recovered after an average of 4 sessions. This compared to an average of 42% for other approaches using the same measures (like CBT). To our knowledge, this is the only hypnotherapy approach to have been validated in this way.

Transform Your Life: Overcoming Misophonia with Sequent Repatterning

Are you struggling with those annoying sounds of somebody chewing ? Does the sound of somebody breathing make you want to lash out ?  Why do people sniff so loudly ?

This is what life can feel like with misophonia – Misophonia is a neurological disorder that causes intense emotional and physical reactions to specific sounds, often referred to as trigger sounds. These sounds may include eating, breathing, sniffling, or clicking, and can lead to feelings of anger, anxiety, and frustration in individuals with misophonia.

The exact causes of misophonia are unknown, but it is believed to be linked to an overactive fight-or-flight response in the brain. When a trigger sound is heard, the brain perceives it as a threat and responds accordingly. This response can manifest as a range of physical and emotional symptoms, including rapid heartbeat, sweating, and irritability.

The effects of misophonia can be far-reaching, impacting a person’s ability to socialize, work, and even engage in basic daily activities. Individuals with misophonia may avoid situations where trigger sounds are likely to occur, leading to isolation and social withdrawal. They may also struggle with concentration and productivity, as trigger sounds can be distracting and overwhelming.

Don’t despair – there is help out there.  There is a programme called Sequent Repatterning that has been designed specifically to work with those suffering with Misophonia.

Sequent Repatterning recognises that Misophonia is a neurological condition and uses an approach underpinned by Solid NeuroScience.

I offer a free no obligation consultation consultation so  that we can get to know each other properly before we start to work together.

If you would like more information on Sequent Repatterning please click this button:

I have been lucky enough to have been trained on a 1-1 basis by Chris Pearson who founded Sequent Repatterning.

I am able to see clients from all over the world from the comfort of their own homes via zoom.  I can help you live a peaceful life where you can start to enjoy doing things that you used to dream of.

Booking options

I will send you an invoice before your session/programme with a link which will allow payment by all major credit and debit cards. For individual sessions a 50%  deposit should be made 48 hours prior to your session and the balance within 24 hours of your session.

The deposit will be kept for missed appointments or appointments which are rescheduled with less than 24 hours notice.. Full detail will be provided in your client contract.

It is important to attend your appointments to keep your treatment progressing.

Practice Guidelines

My practice is covered by very clear guidelines and ethics. As a member of the NCH and QCHPA, there are certain people who I can sadly not work with.

If you have ever been diagnosed with the following conditions I am afraid that I will not be able to work with you:

  • Epilepsy (the deep relaxation of hypnotherapy is contra-indicated)
  • Psychosis (Bi-Polar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Personality Disorder)
  • If you are already working with another therapist I will not be able to work with you due to professional boundaries.

What my clients say...

"Heather has helped me massively with trying to deal with my anxiety. She has taught me techniques that have really helped in calming down my anxious feelings and has also worked with me to address the cause. Heather made me feel completely at ease in something that was so new and different to me. I would highly recommend Hypnotherapy With Heather. "

FW – Anxiety

"Heather is so kind, patient and understanding. She really helped me with my relationship with my brother and made me see things from a whole new perspective. If you’re looking for someone who will treat you as an individual I highly recommend Heather."

JH – Relationship Problems

“From the first day meeting Heather, I felt a genuine connection between us. It was natural for me to ask Heather to help me deal with my anxiety and limiting belief “I am not good enough”. She has been supportive and shown a positive attitude from the start and I can’t thank her enough for her flexibility and bespoke plan made especially for me.”

JM – Anxiety & Limiting Belief

“I first saw Heather with low self esteem following a period of grieving. Heather's warm, approachable manner and skilful use of techniques made me feel happier, calmer and less anxious in no time. After 1 session my confidence had gone up and continues to rise. She also sent me a lovey hypnosis recording to listen to whenever I needed a boost. I would thoroughly recommend Heather for a fast, effective way to treat your issues related to grief, worry, anxiety and self esteem.”

Ella – Self esteem

"I am very grateful to Heather for her helping me through what was potentially a very difficult time at work. She has taught me some very useful techniques that enabled me to maintain my confidence and address any doubts I might have had around my own capabilities. Her approach is very relaxed and reassuring but importantly very effective."

GM – Work Anxiety

"I can highly recommend Heather. I have had 6 sessions with her and compared to when I started, she has made my life a lot better. I'm more focused and happier. she has given me tools to take with me in the future. A very lovely lady. Thank you Heather ❤"

TG

“Lovely ,relaxing environment, Heather taught me techniques to deal with my anxiety. Heather has a very calming way about her and she helped me to deal with my issues. I can highly recommend Heather.” LS – Anxiety & Bereavement

“Lovely ,relaxing environment, Heather taught me techniques to deal with my anxiety. Heather has a very calming way about her and she helped me to deal with my issues. I can highly recommend Heather.” LS – Anxiety & Bereavement

“I have had a few sessions with Heather now and the first thing that strikes me is how hard she works in between sessions to make sure she has tailored my therapy around me. I am handling my anxiety better, and sleeping better – but more importantly, I didn’t freak out when I happened upon a wasp the other day! Heather has a knack of putting me completely at ease and after my session this week I felt like a weight had been lifted. It’s amazing what she can do.  I wouldn’t hesiste to recommend Heather to anyone that wants help. You may even, like me, end up getting help with more than just the issue you went there for in the first place!!”        JR – Phobia & Anxiety
