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

Hi, I’m Neesa, a Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist I offer Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy in Bristol (Clifton) and online across the UK for anxiety, overwhelm, confidence and stress.

I came to hypnotherapy through my own experience of anxiety and OCD. After years of feeling stuck in talk therapy - understanding why I felt the way I did but not actually feeling different - I discovered Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy.

It was the first time I experienced real, practical change. I felt calmer. Clearer. More in control.

That shift changed everything for me, and it’s what led me to retrain so I could offer the same kind of support to others.

About Neesa - Bristol & Online Hypnotherapist

Who I Work With

I work with adults who feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, burnt out, or like they’re constantly coping on hard mode.

Many of the people I support are neurodivergent (diagnosed or self-identified) — including those with ADHD or autistic traits — and have spent years masking, pushing through, or feeling misunderstood.

Sessions are gentle, flexible, and shaped around how your brain works best. If you’re looking for a hypnotherapist in Bristol who works in a neurodivergent-friendly way, you’re in the right place.

I also regularly support clients with:

  • Anxiety and stress

  • OCD patterns and intrusive thoughts

  • Sleep difficulties

  • Low confidence and self-esteem

  • Burnout and overwhelm

  • Life transitions and big changes

If you’re not sure whether what you’re experiencing “counts,” you’re still welcome here.

How I Work

My approach blends Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy with neuroscience-informed tools to help calm your nervous system and shift unhelpful patterns.

Rather than endlessly revisiting the past, we focus on where you want to be and how to move towards it in a way that feels realistic and doable.
Sessions are practical, supportive and collaborative.

We’ll build tools that help you:

  • Quiet overthinking

  • Feel more in control

  • Improve sleep

  • Build confidence

  • Reduce anxiety and stress

Whether you see me for hypnotherapy in Bristol or online across the UK, the focus is always the same: helping you feel more like yourself again.

Training and Professional Standards
I trained with the renowned Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training and qualified in 2024 with over 250 client hours.

I’m fully accredited by the Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH), fully insured, and hold an Enhanced DBS, so you can feel confident you’re in safe, professional hands.



Outside the Therapy Room

When I’m not working with clients, you’ll usually find me out exploring Bristol’s trails with my husband and our dog Persy, curled up reading with a hot chocolate, or spending time with our lively crew of pets.

Life isn’t about being perfectly calm all the time, it’s about having the tools to navigate it when it gets messy. That’s something I care deeply about, both professionally and personally.

What Happens Next

If you’re considering working together, the first step is a free, no-pressure online consultation via Google Meet.

We’ll talk about what’s been going on, what you’d like to feel instead, and whether Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy feels like the right fit for you.

You don’t have to be at rock bottom to start. And if you are, that’s okay too. We’ll begin exactly where you are.

What My Clients Say About Me..

    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
