Natal Hypnotherapy workshops empower and prepare women and their birth partners both physically and emotionally for the birth. Run over a weekend, with a maximum of five couples attending, the workshops give women and partners a safe and welcoming space to experience hynosis sessions, address concerns, develop their knowledge and practise the techniques together. The workshop is a lovely way to take time out together, meet other expectant parents in the area, and is an effective amount of time in which to build confident and positive birth associations.

The two days have a beneficial cumulative effect when taken together, but can be booked on consecutive months by arrangement if your schedule doesn't allow a whole weekend. The workshop can also be run over four evenings. Details of upcoming workshops can be found here. I also offer on-to-one coaching sessions or private workshops in your own home.
