Can you cure a phobia with hypnosis?

People tend to accept conditions thinking that there is no real cure or help available to them.
Typically people have lived with the phobia for many years and just now accept it is part of them.
Our phobias are learned behaviour, we came into this world without any fears and phobias these
are things we have learnt on lifes journey. So with that said if we have learnt these behaviours
can we unlearn them?
Phobias tend to fill people with so much dread they start to sweat, shake or even feel faint.
Hypnotherapy is very effective at helping people quickly overcome their phobias. The great thing
about hypnotherapy is that it deals with the underlying issue in the unconscious mind.

Contrary to popular belief during hypnotherapy you remain very much in control and can open
your eyes at anytime, the process of hypnotherapy is very relaxing and whilst in this relaxing
state the therapist can work with the unconscious mind.
Lots of people get frustrated for reacting to a phobia as they feel their reasoning maybe
unreasonable but they just can’t help it. Phobias tend to have accompanying feelings of guilt
especially if loved ones directly suffer as a result of their phobia.
Some phobias are so powerful that even the mention of what they fear will have the person
shaking and panicking. .
Working with a skilled therapist your phobia can be dealt with very quickly. Most phobias are able
to be tested at the end of the session by gauging the initial reaction whilst speaking about the
phobia.
Once the phobia has been dealt with you can go on to lead a full life free of fear, knowing that the
fear will not return.

David

David Gowans

Training & Development

Tagline: He’s seen mental health crisis at its most acute. And he knows what actually helps.

LinkedIn:

David’s background is probably unlike anyone else you’ll meet in a mental health training room.

Twenty-three years on the frontline of emergency services first as a police officer, now as an HCPC-registered practising paramedic. He hasn’t studied stress, trauma and burnout from a distance. He’s carried them, in uniform, responding to people at the absolute worst moments of their lives. He understands the culture that makes asking for help feel like the hardest thing in the world because he’s lived inside that culture.

That frontline experience sits alongside his clinical practice as a qualified hypnotherapist and accredited EFT practitioner. David works with real people navigating real challenges every single week. What he brings to Piece of Mind Training isn’t theoretical. It’s current, grounded and built entirely from the inside out.

As part of the team, David delivers training, practises as a therapist and plays a key role in the development and direction of the organisation making sure that everything Piece of Mind produces is professionally rigorous and genuinely human.

David is responsible for development and ensures that Piece of Mind Training programmes are grounded in real-world application. Not what the textbook says should happen. What actually works when it matters.

Iona

Iona Russell

Growth & Partnerships

Tagline: She’s written the book. Literally.

Iona has spent more than twenty years working at the intersection of human potential and real-world impact — across psychology, coaching, education, broadcasting, the charitable sector and social policy, in both the UK and the USA.

She is a Master Positive Psychology Coach and twice bestselling author who has supported hundreds of people through coaching qualifications and worked alongside some of the most respected names in positive psychology and personal development. As a keynote speaker and leadership advisor, she helps organisations rethink what success and human flourishing actually look like.

But what drives Iona’s commitment to mental health work goes deeper than her professional background. She lost her brother to suicide. That experience — and everything it taught her about the gap between what people are going through and the support available to them — shapes everything she brings to Piece of Mind Training.

At Piece of Mind, Iona leads our partnerships, builds community impact and drives our growth across Scotland and beyond. She brings commercial insight, deep human understanding and a personal reason for being here that no CV can fully capture.

Ann

Ann Stewart

Head of Training

Tagline: The person who makes sure the learning delivers every time.

LinkedIn:

Ann has spent her career helping people make sense of the things that are weighing on them and finding a way forward when everything feels tough.

Her background is genuinely rare. A qualified teacher, certified hypnotherapist, coach and First Aid for Mental Health practitioner, Ann brings together an understanding of how people learn with a deep, practical knowledge of how people struggle. She still works directly with adults and young people every week supporting those experiencing anxiety, low confidence, emotional distress and the kind of quiet difficulties that don’t always have a name but make everyday life feel impossibly hard.

As a trainer, Ann knows that the best mental health training doesn’t just inform people, it changes how they see themselves and the people around them. She brings that belief into every session she delivers, whether she’s working with a room full of HR professionals or a team who’ve never talked about mental health at work before.

As a therapist, trainer, teacher and mum of three, Ann understands that most people are dealing with far more than anyone around them realises. That understanding is the foundation of everything she does.

At Piece of Mind Training, Ann leads on training quality and consistency, making sure that what we promise is what every learner experiences, every time.
