My Approach
My style is intuitive, compassionate, and collaborative, grounded in respect for your lived experience and identity.
I support adults from all backgrounds and identities, with a particular commitment to creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ clients. Each session is tailored to you – your story, your pace, and your goals.
I value your time and energy, and my intention is that you leave each session feeling seen, heard and supported.
Sessions are available:
Online – from the comfort of your own space
In person – at The Wellington Health & Wellbeing Centre in Hastings
Both options are equally effective. We can talk together about what feels most accessible and comfortable for you.

How Hypnotherapy Can Help
Hypnotherapy works by gently accessing the subconscious mind to shift self-limiting beliefs and unhelpful thought patterns. Using relaxation techniques and personalised positive suggestions, we create new subconscious pathways that support lasting change so you can move towards your goals.
Hypnosis is a natural and safe state. You remain in control throughout, and the process is collaborative and empowering. Many people describe it as feeling calm, focused and deeply relaxed.
Hypnotherapy can be especially helpful if you:
Want to feel more confident for exams, interviews or driving tests
Feel nervous about public speaking or being “seen”
Want to improve your sleep and reduce stress or anxiety
Would like to quieten your inner critic and feel more at ease in yourself
Are seeking calm, clarity or freedom from unwanted habits (such as nail biting)
Whatever you’re hoping for – more confidence, more peace, or simply feeling more like yourself – change begins with believing it’s possible and taking the first step.

Hypnosis is the state itself - a natural, relaxed state of heightened focus and suggestibility, like daydreaming. You remain fully aware and in control. Hypnotherapy is the therapy that uses hypnosis as a tool. It combines this relaxed state with therapeutic techniques to help you make positive changes for issues such as anxiety, phobias, low self-esteem, habits, or stress.
The key difference: Hypnosis is the state, while hypnotherapy is the therapy that uses that state. Together, they work on both conscious and subconscious levels for deeper, more effective change. In my practice, I use hypnotherapy to help you create lasting, positive changes in a supportive, collaborative way - you're always in control and empowered to achieve your goals.

Hypnotherapy may not be suitable for those within their first trimester of pregnancy, with a severe mental health condition (such as Psychosis or Schizophrenia) or uncontrolled epilepsy; anyone currently under the influence of alcohol or other substances. If you have concerns about your specific situation, please consult your GP first to find the approach that feels right and safe for you.
Client Testimonials
“I had hypnotherapy with Marisa to help calm my nerves ahead of my driving test, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. I’d failed multiple times before - not because I couldn’t drive, exactly, but because nerves got the better of me and I panicked during the test. Marisa’s approach was exactly what I needed.
Marisa helped me feel grounded and more confident. She was incredibly attentive to my fears and worries, and I felt completely at ease with her from the start. Her professionalism shone through in every aspect of our sessions, and her follow-up was just as thorough, creating personalised recordings for me to listen to prior to the test, which were both calming and empowering.
Marisa was kind, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. Thanks to her, I was able to approach my test with a calm mindset and finally overcome the anxiety that had held me back.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Marisa to anyone looking for support through hypnotherapy. She’s truly exceptional.”
