Anxiety Treatment
Our anxiety treatment program uses hypnotherapy to address the root causes of chronic worry and fear. By accessing the subconscious mind, we help clients develop healthier thought patterns and coping mechanisms. Clients report significant reductions in symptoms after just 1-2 sessions, with long-term benefits through our tailored programs.
Quit Smoking
This program targets nicotine addiction and associated psychological triggers through conversational hypnotherapy. Clients gain tools to overcome cravings and develop new habits. Most achieve permanent cessation after 2 sessions, with ongoing support available for reinforcement and maintenance.
Weight Loss
Our weight loss hypnotherapy addresses emotional eating patterns and self-sabotaging behaviours. Clients develop healthier relationships with food and exercise through subconscious reprogramming. Most report noticeable changes in mindset after 3 sessions, with sustained weight loss achieved through behavioural transformation.
PTSD Treatment
Specialised hypnotherapy for trauma processing and emotional healing. This program helps clients reframe traumatic memories and reduce associated symptoms. Many experience significant relief after 2 sessions, with comprehensive treatment plans available for complex cases.
Teen Hypnotherapy
Tailored programs for adolescents dealing with anxiety, confidence issues, and behavioural challenges. Our practitioners use age-appropriate techniques to help teens develop healthy coping strategies and positive self-image through safe, non-invasive methods.

Im so glad I finally tried to get help for my anxiety. For anyone reading that is considering Moving Minds, I absolutely recommend trying it. If you are anything like me, then you will see life changing results after the first session. I had reservations about spending the money on hypnosis (or anything else). Im so glad I finally decided to overcome this and try it, as it has truly changed my life for the better. The true testament is how easily I was able to navigate lifes challenges afterwards, and there was a real curveball! Thank you Greg for helping me to change my life.

I was a habitual drinker and struggling to have alcohol free nights each week. After one session with Greg, I completely lost the want to have that afternoon drink. I am now 6 weeks without alcohol in my life and feel so much better for it.
Cannot recommend Greg highly enough, incredible experience

My last session was over a month ago. I really wanted to genuinely experience the changes before leaving a review. My sessions at Moving Minds were with Daniel, which were to work on some traumas I have had in my life, which had left a lasting amount of damage on my self worth. My partner suggested hypnotherapy, which I was skeptical about at first... But now, after my sessions - I no longer self sabotage, I legitimately care about myself and I have adapted consistent and healthy habits. I once despised the gym and healthy eating, now I eat healthily with a mindful attitude. I go to the gym because

I am 48 and was suffering mental health issues all my life. I had been living with Anxiety and depression which was affecting my relationship with my wife and children. I had to do something about it or my marriage was going to be over. I had been searching for a long time for a solution but couldn't find an answer until I met Greg at Moving Minds.
Greg has changed my life in such a profound way.
I had a massive meltdown at home and I text him for help and he called me within 10 minutes and solved my issue within 5 minutes. What a fantastic guy who was always there for me when I needed him. No

Highly recommend Gregory Thompson Moving Minds Hypnotherapist. After first session i have stopped smoking, no cravings, no thought of smoking. He has changed my life, had been smoking for 30 years, now feel great, more energy, healthy. Before I found Moving Mind I have had bad experience with Tranquility Counseling Services, waste of time and money, bad service, no professionalism, reading hypnotherapy of the paper, drinking coke during the season, no connection. I was very disappointed, no money back. Completely different experience with Greg, felt comfortable, felt connection straight from the

My sister had incredible outcomes from her hypnotherapy sessions at Moving Minds. I was inspired by her journey through the process and had a couple of issues that I needed help with so I booked with the wonderfully insightful and caring therapist, Greg. I had experienced hypnotherapy before (one session only) with another practitioner which was nothing compared to the skill and subtlety in practice that Greg gratefully shared with me. It's not easy to describe the experience except to say that it has been the only therapy that has ever empowered me to make the necessary changes in my life.

When deciding to sign up for Hypnotherapy I selected Moving Minds based on what I was able to read online and the location was convenient. After making contact I selected to work with Daniel Brown and made exactly the right choice. Daniel provided me with all of the preparatory information before my first consultation which was very helpful in knowing what to expect during the actual session. I found this very useful and meant that the first consultation went far better than I had expected. Following the initial consultation Daniel provided me with significant information and audios which have
