Hypnotherapist Sunshine Coast

You already know something has to change.

The pattern is obvious. 

The loop is exhausting. 

Everything you’ve tried worked, until it didn’t.

That’s not failure. 

You’ve been working on the surface.

For capable, high-functioning people who are tired of managing it.

You’re not broken. You’re running an old program.

 

You look capable from the outside. Inside, you’re overthinking, over-giving, over-performing, and still questioning yourself.

The anxiety that won’t switch off.

The habit you keep promising to stop.

The confidence that disappears when you need it.

You’ve tried to logic your way out and push your way through. It isn’t a character flaw.

It’s a pattern, and patterns can be changed at the level where they were built.

 

Habits and Addictions

Smoking, drinking, sugar, gambling, scrolling.
Programs written by a nervous system doing the only thing it knew how to do.

Compulsive Behaviours

Checking, avoiding, controlling, overindulging. Every loop has an entry point.

Anxiety

The scanning, the bracing, the waiting for something to go wrong. Your nervous system learned it. It can learn something else.

Confidence

Your beliefs about yourself are conclusions your brain drew a long time ago. Conclusions can be updated.

Welcome,

I see what’s running underneath. That’s where I work.

I’m Susan Hayden, a clinical hypnotherapist and RTT practitioner with over 30 years of one-to-one work. I hold a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy/Strategic Psychotherapy and trained in Rapid Transformational Therapy under Marisa Peer.

I don’t treat symptoms. I locate where the pattern started and change the response.

No generic scripts. Every session is built around your pattern: where it began and what it’s doing now.

A recording that carries the change. You leave with a personalised audio that reinforces it between sessions and after.

A straight answer on sessions. On your free call we map how many you need.

Bokarina or online. In person on the Sunshine Coast, or online worldwide.

How it works

1. A conversation. A free 15-minute call. We establish what’s running and whether this is the right fit.

2. The session. I guide you into hypnosis. You stay aware, you stay in control, and you remember everything. We locate where the pattern began, reprocess the emotional charge behind it, and install a response that fits who you are now.

3. The recording. You leave with a personalised audio to reinforce the change. Lasting change deepens with repetition.

Hypnotherapy FAQs

How many sessions will I need?

Many clients feel a shift after the first session. Some patterns resolve in one to three sessions, and complex ones take longer. We’ll map it out on your free call. I won’t overcommit you or underdeliver.

Will I remember what happens?

 Yes. Hypnosis is a deeply focused state of awareness. You’re not unconscious, and you’re not out of control.

Is it safe?

Yes.

Hypnotherapy works alongside medical care and does not replace it. If you have a diagnosed mental health condition, speak with your doctor or treating team before booking.                              

Individual results vary.

 

Is online as effective as in person?

Yes.

All you need is a quiet space and a reliable internet connection.

A great option to reduce your travel time.

The pattern isn’t going to dissolve on its own. Awareness doesn’t break it.

More willpower won’t either.

What breaks it is going underneath — to where it was built.

That’s the work. And it starts with a conversation.

Clarity on what’s running and whether this is the right fit.

I decide to contact Susan to see if she could help me with my insomnia. I have completed 5 sessions and feel she has given me some strategies and helped me to understand my sleeping situation a lot more. I found her warm, friendly and reassuring. The recordings she provided me with are very valuable. Thankyou Susan for your kindness and professional input into my situation and I would highly recommend her services.

I was in a very bad headspace before visiting Susan with lots of personal issues going on in my life. It was suggested I tried hypnotherapy and I found Susan online through Google. The sessions I had with Susan were very beneficial and I was able to move forward with the positivity I lacked before seeing her. Everyone is different with what therapy suits them. But this helped me so much. I can’t thank Susan enough for getting my life back in order 🙏🙏🙏.

Spending time with Susan Hayden was instantly calming. Her presence is grounding, reassuring, and quietly confident, and after speaking with her I felt relaxed and at ease. Susan has a natural way of listening and holding space that makes people feel safe and supported, which clearly carries through into her work. It is easy to understand why so many people speak so highly of their experience with her. I would highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a calm, supportive, and thoughtful practitioner.

I had been a heavy smoker for over 35 years and never believed I could successfully stop. Susan's work and guidance using hypnotherapy had me smoke free in under 3 weeks. She is an amazing lady with some very special skills. If you want to change something or improve, I highly recommend talking to Susan. Thankyou Susan.

I had been trying to stop drinking alcohol for a few years and had definitely cut back but just couldn’t seem to completely stop so I booked in with Susan Hayden and with only 4 sessions of hypnotherapy I have not had a drink for over 5 months now and feel amazing. I would like to thank and highly recommend Susan for her services, if you are just a bit stuck with something like this and really would like to stop she will definitely be able to help you.

Susan is amazing at what she does. She worked with our 13 year old Son who had experienced very high anxiety with life. She helped him overcome so much and he now has so much confidence in everything he does. Would highly recommend Susan if your child suffers from anxiety from going to school to leaving the house and competing in sport. Judy

You’ve been managing long enough.

 

 

Break the pattern from within and change your life.

Hypnotherapy doesn’t manage the symptom. It works on the pattern that produces it.

You arrive knowing what you want to change. We find where it started, update it, and you leave with a response that fits who you are now.

Not more willpower. Not another strategy. A different starting point.
