Children’s Hypnotherapy Cheltenham

Seeing the relationship between our daughter and Sarah has been one of my favourite aspects of the service; especially how trust has built up. We feel our daughter is in safe and caring hands.

Children’s Hypnotherapy can offer an innovative and enjoyable approach to assist and empower your child on their journey of transformation.

What I Can Help With:

  • Feeling calmer and more relaxed about tests and exams

  • Building calmness and confidence around school residential trips and staying away from home

  • Overcoming reluctance and anxiety around trying new things

  • Sleeping better and getting to sleep independently

  • Eating a better and more varied diet

  • Identifying and releasing any embarrassment or shame that may be holding them back

  • Bedwetting (Enuresis)

  • Self-esteem and confidence building

  • Getting over ‘shyness’

  • Overcoming separation anxiety

  • And more (please inquire).

Sarah was recommended to us and we took our daughter to see her for issues with sleep and anxiety. Sarah seemed to grasp the issue straight away and the journey we have been through with her has been brilliant.

There has been a huge improvement in our daughter’s confidence, her sleeping on her own and managing a school trip to France! It’s been so lovely to see her confidence grow from giving her the tools she needed.

Let me introduce myself properly…

I’m Sarah Weaver!

As a fully qualified member of the IAEBP (International Associated for Evidence-Based Psychotherapy) with over 16 years’ experience working with children and parents, you are in the right place!

With my warm and caring nature I will quickly help your child to settle into the sessions. I pride myself on my ability to build a rapport FAST with children and parents alike. I also strive to make all sessions as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. I encourage parents to join in with the hypnosis part too, which is always very much enjoyed!

Sarah has an authenticity and warmth that I was immediately drawn to. From the moment we began, I knew I’d struck gold!

As a mother of two, I have first-hand knowledge of the challenges of parenthood; it’s the most demanding job in the world. There is no other time in life when emotions are felt as strongly as they are in childhood. The very complex nature of growing up can sometimes create an obstacle within a child’s development that the parents and child may feel very helpless to overcome.

The good news is that I can help your child to overcome these obstacles. You might be surprised to hear that I rarely use hypnotherapy on its own, as after many years experience I’ve found that the longer-lasting and more profound changes occur when used alongside Mindset and Emotional-Health Coaching.

…And I’m not your average ‘therapist’!

Most of my sessions are now carried out using a combination of ‘walk and talk’ sessions in beautiful surroundings, with the hypnosis carried out via Zoom once the child has got to know me and we’ve put great foundations in place ensuring they are ‘prepped’ and ready for change.

There’s something very special about this way of working; walking in calming surroundings is especially conducive to allowing a child to feel ‘safe’ to open up.

And the rhythmic motion of walking really allows them to discharge any nerves or discomfort, which is harder to achieve being cooped up in an office!

Carrying out the hypnosis element in the comfort and familiarity of their own home allows them to relax into it much more easily and with far less resistance. We can also record the sessions too, if you wish, so that they can listen again for reinforcement in-between sessions.

If you prefer, we can do everything online and this has proven to be really effective too, as long as your child is happy with this arrangement.

Sarah is incredibly personable and easy to talk to. The ‘walk and talk’ approach is by far the best for our child, it definitely feels less pressured and daunting than a clinic or office.

From our own experience with regards to our child’s difficulties, Sarah will give you a personalised, well thought out and carefully structured plan to help your child.

Sarah is super friendly, empathetic and non-judgmental. It is clear that she puts a huge amount of effort and work into the preparation of each of her sessions, often sowing seeds of thought for the child.

We would recommend Sarah without hesitation.

I’m passionate about helping children and parents to see that their problems and difficulties are not fixed and that change is absolutely possible.

I have spent several years studying what gives people a ‘psychological advantage’ in life, i.e. what helps people to THRIVE rather than just SURVIVE.

I’m not only committed to applying this to my own life and children, but I’m dedicated to teaching these insights and tools to other families too.

Sometimes Google can be your best friend. It certainly was the day I searched it for a way to help my eldest child. Google found Sarah! The best find ever!

Sarah was so lovely and calming. I wasn’t sure how my son would respond but Sarah was amazing with him and he had total trust in her. It was lovely to watch him respond and open up to her.

Our experience has been fantastic and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Sarah will just ‘get’ your child and help them understand how to build a strong mindset. An all round fantastic experience

Hypnotherapy can be a great tool in making significant changes FAST.

I find it especially rewarding working with children and their parents, as this sets up a solid foundation upon which that child can FLOURISH throughout the rest of their life. I believe that there is no better investment than in a child’s happiness and emotional harmony.

Jake was a very very restricted eater and has gone from being, from a boy who would not talk about food, to a boy who helps prepare family meals!

Eating things outside of his comfort zone would not have been possible without Sarah... Mealtimes are now an enjoyable and a positive experience. His confidence has grown massively and he seems so much happier.

My son found the hypnotherapy very beneficial and welcomed the sessions. Quite often he tells me how he has used Sarah’s techniques to overcome a particular challenge he has had.

Can I also add that I was able to join in with the sessions too with my son and found it very beneficial. The techniques can be applied to anyone!
— Kelly and son Charlie
The meet and greet went really well and reassured my daughter that there was a solution to her problem. Sarah made her feel very at ease.

The blowaway technique was very simple and cleared out all my daughter’s unwanted emotions. After a second session where Sarah gave her specific tools, we saw immediate results!
