About Me
Hi, My name is Lana
​
As a former teacher, I’ve always cared deeply about helping others learn, grow, and overcome challenges. But for over 12 years, I faced my own private battle with postnatal depression and OCD. I often found myself wishing my life away, feeling trapped and overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions I felt too embarrassed to share with anyone. I truly believed I would never be able to live without antidepressants, and the idea of feeling genuinely happy again seemed impossible.
​
​My journey took an unexpected turn when I sought hypnotherapy—not for depression or OCD, but for a fear of flying that was holding me back. To my surprise, not only did hypnotherapy help me overcome my flying phobia, but it also brought profound relief to my depression and OCD. It was as if a weight I had carried for years was finally lifted.
​This accidental discovery was truly life-changing. So inspired by the transformation I experienced, I decided to train as a hypnotherapist with the Clifton Practice, one of the UK’s leading providers of solution-focused hypnotherapy training. Now, free from depression, I am passionate about helping others discover the real, lasting benefits of hypnotherapy—especially those who feel misunderstood or alone in their struggles.
Hypnotherapy is often surrounded by myths and misconceptions, and I want to change that. It has become my life’s mission to support as many people as possible on their journey to healing and hope. If you’re struggling, please know you’re not alone—and that there is a gentle, effective way forward. I’m here to walk that path with you.
What is Solution Focused Hypnotherapy?
My approach to hypnotherapy is grounded in modern neuroscience, helping you gain a deeper understanding of how your mind works and uncovering practical ways to move forward toward a more balanced and authentic version of yourself.
​
By combining elements of psychotherapy with hypnosis, we create a powerful framework for meaningful, lasting change. Psychotherapy provides valuable tools for addressing challenges of the mind, and when paired with hypnosis, it taps into the subconscious to support positive shifts aligned with your personal goals and aspirations.
​
This method focuses on building a brighter future rather than revisiting the past. Through gentle techniques designed to calm both mind and body, we aim to ease feelings of stress or anxiety, helping you reconnect with a sense of inner peace, positivity, and the energy to fully embrace life—even amidst its challenges.

Testimonials
“Not only have I become more relaxed, but my confidence has also soared, I am doing things naturally which I would have usually worried about or not done at all. Lana was understanding and guided me through the process with care and professionalism and most of all kindness. Hypnotherapy has been an invaluable tool in helping me manage my anxiety, and I highly recommend Lana and hypnotherapy to anyone looking to make positive changes in their lives.”
I had a few sessions with Lana. I thought she was very knowledgable and I learnt so much from her about how our brains work and how to change our thoughts and behaviours. I work in mental health and have used some of the tools she explained to me in my work. Thanks Lana, I really enjoyed working with you and I have noticed some real benefits.
I’ve seen Lana’s post on Facebook, have been feeling low and demotivated for a while decided to give it a go as I have nothing to lose. How surprised I was when I found out what hypnotherapy is all about, she’s very professional, kind and understanding. She helped me so much I feel like I have more mental clarity and focus, my stress level reduced massively. She’s very knowledgeable. I can’t thank you enough Lana...
