What I work on · Relationships & boundaries
Hypnotherapy for people pleasing & boundaries.
Saying yes when you mean no. Reading the room before you check in with yourself. Managing everyone else's feelings before your own. People pleasing and codependency are patterns of over-functioning for other people, usually learned early.
We dismantle the pattern at the root rather than managing it at the surface. In Ealing or online, £125 a session.
What it looks like
Over-functioning for everyone else.
- people pleasing
- codependency
- self-abandonment
- anxious attachment
- fear of rejection
- boundaries
You've spent years smoothing edges and putting yourself last. You can name the pattern now and you're ready to actually change it. That's exactly the territory this work is built for.
How the work helps
The pattern at the root.
Hypnotherapy works with where the keep-everyone-else-happy pattern was learned; breathwork helps with the anxiety that comes with starting to say no. We agree the shape of the work in the first session.

Common questions
Asked most often.
Can hypnotherapy help with people pleasing and codependency?
Yes — these are core areas of the work. Hypnotherapy works with the early pattern of over-functioning for others, rather than just coaching you to set boundaries. The change tends to hold because it's at the root.
Will I become selfish or cold?
No. The aim is choice, not hardness — being able to say no when you mean it and yes when you mean it, instead of automatically abandoning yourself. Most people feel more themselves, not less.
In person or online?
Either. Ealing in person, or online via Zoom.
