Neesa Younger, Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist at The Clifton Practice in Bristol, laughing in a client session, holding notebook and pen

My Story

I discovered hypnotherapy after years of struggling with anxiety and OCD. Traditional therapies and medication hadn’t ever helped much, I felt stuck in cycles of endless talking without real change. Then I found solution-focused hypnotherapy, and it genuinely transformed my life. That experience inspired me to retrain as a Clinical Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist, because I wanted to help others find the same relief and freedom.

Before hypnotherapy, I spent eight years in Learning and Development for one of the UK’s largest energy companies. That time gave me a passion for helping people grow and equipping them with tools they can actually use in everyday life.

Alongside working with my own clients, I also support future hypnotherapists through Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training (CPHT), helping shape therapists across the UK and Ireland.

Where I Can Help Most

While I work with a wide range of clients, I particularly enjoy supporting neurodivergent humans, helping them recognise patterns and build tools that work for them.
I also love helping clients with anxiety, stress, burnout, OCD, low confidence, and life’s big transitions, guiding them toward clarity, calm, and lasting change.

Outside the Therapy Room

When I’m not supporting clients, you’ll usually find me exploring Bristol’s trails with my husband and our dog Persy, or catching up with friends over good food. I’m happiest on cosy autumn evenings, curled up under a blanket with hot chocolate, a good book, or the latest TV series.

Life at home is lively - I share it with my husband, two cats, a dog, and a lizard. They bring me joy and keep me grounded, which I carry into my work with clients.

Ready to Feel More You Again?

If you’re ready to take that first step, I’d love to chat - no pressure, just a friendly conversation to explore how hypnotherapy could help you feel more like yourself again. Over a brew, we can figure out what’s next for you, and start building a path that feels good.

Hi, I’m Neesa – I Help People Like You Find Calm, Clarity, & Confidence

Life can feel overwhelming a lot of the time. Between the daily grind, personal challenges, and the endless mental to-do-list, it’s easy to feel stuck, stressed, or unsure of your next step. I help busy humans like you, slow down, make sense of what’s going on, and find practical ways to feel calmer, clearer, and more confident.

Using solution-focused hypnotherapy and neuroscience, I guide you through a supportive, personalised process that’s all about helping you move forward in a way that works for your life. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, celebrate your wins, and build tools you can use long after our sessions are over.

    Neesa's empathy and positive attitude has really helped me, and her joy is infectious! I felt over time I could be more and more myself without judgement and her gentle encouragement made me feel really validated and more confident within myself.

    I now want to take better care of myself (especially when my primitive brain is piping up!) as I know I am a worthy human being with a lot to offer the world! I will continue to focus on what has been positive in my week and check in with myself, and use the tools I've learnt.

    The hypnotherapy tape is so relaxing and helps to retrain my brain to focus on the positive. Thank you Neesa!

    Neesa was so brilliant at gently moving me towards more positive thinking, and also being my cheerleader where I found it difficult to give myself credit for progress that I had made. She made me feel comfortable throughout and I always looked forward to our sessions (I will miss them!). The hypnotherapy track has also improved my sleep and has become a non negotiable part of my bedtime routine. Thank you so much Neesa for being such a wonderful support for the past few months - I hope to take what we worked on through the rest of my life!

    I felt totally comfortable talking to Neesa - her positive energy is infectious, putting you at ease from the get go. It’s obvious she knows what she’s talking about and cares about what she does.

    Self-belief is something I’ve been working on over the past few years - I’ve lived the majority of my life with a tendency to take things personally, often overthinking and ruminating on situations, and have found it difficult being assertive when communicating my needs with others.

    My sessions with Neesa have really helped to accelerate this process. I feel more relaxed on a day-to-day basis, and there’s been a big shift in my ability to catch myself at the start of catastrophising.

    I’m finding it so much easier saying ‘no’ to people, no longer feeling unnecessarily guilty when doing so. I highly recommend Neesa if you feel anxiety around any area of your life that you feel is holding you back
