Evidence-Based Hypnotherapy for Anxiety, Stress & Life Transitions

Do you feel stuck in a cycle of stress, self-doubt, or burnout? Maybe you're juggling high expectations, navigating change, or struggling to switch off - and it’s taking a toll. You’re ready to make a change, but you’re not sure where to start.

I’m Sarah Mortimer, a Clinical Hypnotherapist based in Bristol, specialising in anxiety, stress, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based hypnotherapy with compassion-focused techniques, helping you develop the tools to:

✔ Regain emotional balance - so stress no longer dictates your decisions.
✔ Break free from overthinking and self-doubt - allowing you to move forward with clarity.
✔ Develop a kinder, more supportive relationship with yourself - by cultivating a compassionate mindset.
✔ Cultivate acceptance - helping you respond to difficult emotions with understanding rather than resistance.
✔ Strengthen your resilience - so you can handle setbacks without feeling overwhelmed.

Change happens when you work with your mind, not against it. Rather than trying to eliminate difficult thoughts and emotions, I help you become more aware of them—understanding them without letting them take over. It’s natural to experience self-doubt, stress, or overwhelm at times, and these feelings don’t mean you’re failing. Through a compassionate, evidence-based approach, we’ll explore ways to navigate these experiences with greater ease.

I teach all my clients self-hypnosis and other practical techniques to support them beyond our sessions. My goal is to empower you with the tools to manage your emotions, build resilience, and feel more in control of your well-being—so you can confidently handle life’s challenges, both now and in the future. With the right strategies in place, you’ll find yourself thinking more clearly, feeling more in control, and moving forward with greater confidence.

Sessions are available in person at The Harbourside Practice (Redcliffe) and The Practice Rooms (Queen’s Square), as well as online via Google Meet.
