Hello, I'm Phillip
I’m a clinical hypnotherapist based in Blythe Bridge, near Stoke-on-Trent. Before retraining, I spent more than 30 years in education, including roles as Deputy Head and Headteacher. That work taught me a great deal about the pressures people carry, and why willpower alone so often isn’t enough.
Today I help people with anxiety, phobias, sleep, stopping smoking and weight. Most clients start with a free consultation, so we can agree what’s realistic for you before you commit to anything.
I have a particular interest in emotional eating, and created The Rewire Method to help change the patterns behind it.

How I can help
Emotional eating and weight
If you’ve tried diet after diet and keep ending up back where you started, willpower usually isn’t the problem. Patterns around food often run deeper than logic and good intentions can reach, and that’s where hypnotherapy can help. The Rewire Method is my four-session programme for emotional eating, designed especially for professional women.
Looking for help with portion control instead? The Inner Band Method uses virtual gastric band hypnotherapy to help you feel satisfied with smaller portions.
Anxiety
Hypnosis can help quieten anxious thoughts and ease the pressure of an overloaded mind, helping you feel calmer and more in control.
Better Sleep
Hypnosis can help quieten a busy mind at night, making it easier to settle and rest.
Fears and Phobias
Hypnosis can help reduce the fear response linked to past experiences, so situations that once felt overwhelming become more manageable.
Stop Smoking
My stop smoking programme combines hypnosis, EFT and NLP to help you become a non-smoker.
Hypnotherapy can help with many other things too. If what you’re facing isn’t listed here, get in touch and we can talk about whether it’s right for you.

Why Choose To Work With Me?
Every client starts with the same question: is this actually right for you? I don’t use off-the-shelf scripts, because no two people are the same. What drives one person’s evening eating, anxiety or habit can look nothing like the next person’s, even when it looks similar on the surface.
If you already know what you’d like help with, the sections above explain each programme. If you’d like to talk it through first, a free consultation is always there, so we can explore what’s going on and whether this is the right fit for you.
training and qualifications
I trained at the Academy of renowned Harley Street hypnotherapist Andrew Parr, hold NCH/GHR accredited diplomas in Advanced Hypnotherapy, and Advanced Hypnotherapy and Counselling, and am registered with the IHA and ICBCH. I offer a structured, evidence-based approach to hypnotherapy, informed by the latest therapeutic techniques.
I am also a certified hypnotist with the MMHA, hold additional certifications in NLP and Mindscaping, and have full professional indemnity insurance.
Personalised to you
Every session is shaped around your situation and your goals. We work on what matters to you, at a pace that feels right.

…he puts you at ease at every step of the process.
I was made to feel completely at ease and the entire process was fully explained to me. I was in complete control and happy with the whole process. I have found Phillip to be a great help with the issues I went to see him about and quite frankly could not recommend him more highly.
I had never had any hypnotherapy before so I was curious as to what it would involve. The session proved to be effective and also gave me some useful tools to help me. I found the whole process to be calming and meditative.
