About Melanie Lewis

HYPNOTHERAPIST MELANIE LEWIS, IS BASED IN CHELTENHAM, BUT ALSO COVERS GLOUCESTER, TEWKESBURY, EVESHAM, STROUD AND BRISTOL

As a professional hypnotherapist and hypno-analyst, I run the Gloucestershire Hypnotherapy Clinic based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.

I have previously worked in the private health sector for over 10 years. During that time I had the opportunity to work with many consultants, doctors and therapists from different fields of healthcare, including mental health and psychiatry. I have seen how both conventional medicine and complementary therapies only treat the symptoms and not the cause of many problems.

I began to notice that the causes of many symptoms are not investigated in great depth and the symptoms are just ‘smoothed over’ or controlled by the use of medication and ‘talking therapies’ that seem to last a lifetime.

Professional association

Thankfully, I was introduced to the International Association of Pure HypnoAnalysts (IAPH) who have pioneered a safe, gentle and very effective way of treating the real cause of many problems using hypno-analysis. Pure hypno-analysis is unique to the IAPH and is not taught by any other organisation.

Unlike many other therapies, hypno-analysis does not rely on the therapist’s insight or opinion or indeed that of the client. It is a remarkable therapy that enables the client’s own mind, naturally, to uncover the anxieties and emotions that are the cause of their problem, in a very short amount of time.

Whilst being a member of the IAPH, I am able to continue to expand my knowledge of hypnosis, analysis, and psychotherapy, by attending various seminars and workshops on a regular basis. Some of the training courses I have attended have included:

What to expect

At the Gloucestershire Hypnotherapy Clinic, I offer a free initial consultation in order for you to talk openly about any problems or anxieties you may be facing.

I run an informal but professional consulting room and rest assured that all consultations and therapy sessions are completely private and confidential, so much so, that I only conduct one to one sessions and will not discuss therapy or consultations with spouses, partners or any other members of the family. The only exception to this, is when the client is under the age of 16 and a parent or guardian has to be present by law.

Honest and open hypnotherapy treatment

I encourage openness and honesty during every session but I can appreciate that making that phone call or arranging that first appointment can be a daunting prospect and I know that you may not have spoken about your problems to anyone before.

However, you will find that I have a friendly, informal and understanding approach, along with the commitment and expertise to help you overcome any problem or difficulty you may be experiencing.

I offer a free initial consultation, so that we can have an in depth chat about your problems, without any obligation.

I look forward to meeting you.
