Testimonials

What people are saying

Anxiety / Public Speaking

You helped me a few years ago over public speaking anxiety and I’ve been meaning to write for a while. In short your treatment was life changing. My inability to present at meetings had become an ideal issue but I now give seminars and presentations almost on a daily basis with no anxiety. I wanted to express my thanks.

Confidence

My meeting was excellent! I feel confident and like the old Janice. Once again thank you so much for all your help and support and genuinely  caring. You have helped me to find my confidence again and start moving forward in my life again in a positive and  proactive way. J.W.

Brisbane Hypnosis Clinic

I have had the pleasure to be a client of Katinas for well over 10 years now and it has been nothing short of life-changing. From the moment I step into her calming presence, I feel seen, heard, and supported in a way I had never experienced before. Her intuitive understanding, combined with her deep expertise in hypnotherapy, created a space where real healing could begin. Kira

Nausea

Everything went well yesterday, felt calm and very well. Had treatment went home, ate tea, had a big sleep. Got up and went to work as usual with no signed of nausea or vomiting. Yipee! One down seven to go. Thanks again for your help. Leanne

Frequently Asked Questions

What is hypnotherapy, and how does it work?

Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses guided relaxation and focused attention to access the subconscious mind. In this state, you’re more open to positive suggestions and can begin to shift unhelpful patterns, beliefs, or behaviours. You’re always in control—it’s not about being asleep or unconscious but rather about being deeply relaxed and focused.

No, absolutely not. You remain fully in control throughout the entire session. Hypnotherapy is nothing like stage hypnosis—you’re not asleep, and you can’t be made to do or say anything against your will. In fact, most people remember everything that was said during the session.

Hypnotherapy can support a wide range of issues, including anxiety, stress, insomnia, chronic pain, smoking cessation, weight loss, phobias, low confidence, and more. It can also be helpful for children and even for enhancing performance or focus in sports, study, or public speaking.

This depends on the issue and the individual, but many clients experience noticeable improvements after just 1–3 sessions. Some goals may take longer, especially if they are deeply rooted or involve multiple factors. Your hypnotherapist will guide you with a personalised plan.

Yes, hypnotherapy is a safe and natural process when conducted by a trained professional. It’s a relaxing experience with no harmful side effects, and it’s suitable for both adults and children. If you have any medical concerns, your therapist may work alongside your healthcare provider.

Most people can enter a hypnotic state—it’s similar to the feeling of being absorbed in a book or daydream. Some may find it easier than others, especially if they are open to the process and willing to engage with the techniques.
