Help to Manage Anxiety Symptoms
At Balance Hypnotherapy we know that anxiety can produce a wide range of symptoms that can disrupt your daily life. Some of the most common symptoms associated with anxiety disorders include:
- Panic attacks – Episodes of sudden, intense fear and panic
- Restlessness – Feeling agitated, on edge, or unable to relax
- Fatigue – Feeling tired, experiencing low energy from poor sleep patterns
- Muscle tension – Stiff, sore muscles from chronic stress response
- Increased heart rate – Rapid heartbeat because you have triggered the flight-or-fight response
- Difficulty concentrating – Trouble focusing due to obsession over worries
- Irritability – Quick to anger due to constant anxiety
- Sleep disturbances – Trouble falling/staying asleep as your mind is too busy to switch off
- Avoidance – Withdrawing from anxiety-provoking situations or environments
Learning to identify and manage these distressing symptoms with the help of a therapist can help people like you take back control over your fears and worries.*
Treating Anxiety Naturally With Therapy
We believe that in addition to medication or traditional psychotherapy, anxiety can be treated by using natural methods.
At Balance Hypnotherapy we take a holistic approach to managing anxiety and improving your psychological well-being. This simply means we don’t just look at the presenting problem but your life and lifestyle as well.
Our anxiety treatment in Newark on Trent incorporates hypnotherapy, mindfulness, stress management techniques as well as NLP and positive visualization to help you feel calmer.
The aim of our therapy is to empower our clients to take control of their anxiety symptoms by targeting the root causes of their problems and establishing an anxiety recovery plan that is simple and easy to use.
We believe that anxiety-related issues can be helped by targeting four specific areas:
- The learned behaviour which drives the uncomfortable feelings.
- Tackling stress which makes anxiety larger.
- Addressing any lifestyle issues that increase mental health problems.
- Reducing avoidance techniques that perpetuate anxiety.
All our new clients learn how their well-being and quality of life can be significantly improved when they don’t look at their anxiety in isolation.
Why A Holistic Approach Works
A holistic approach to therapy and mental health treatment aims to support the whole person. This is in contrast to compartmentalised methods that focus narrowly on isolated symptoms.
Holistic therapy recognises that your thoughts, emotions, physical health, relationships, environment, and beliefs are all interconnected. When one area is out of balance, it impacts everything else.
By addressing a client’s overall well-being we can create tailored anxiety treatments to suit your needs. Mental health difficulties are often the result of problems in your life that you may not have attributed to your anxiety issues. These are just some of the issues that we see in our private practice that cause our clients anxiety.
- Relationship Issues
- Sleep Problems
- Low Self-Esteem and Confidence
- Self Criticism
- Work Stress
- Trauma
- Drinking
- Drugs
By tackling the problem areas with our new clients we can help to address any imbalances which in turn should help improve the way that you feel.

Anxiety and Hypnotherapy
As part of our anxiety treatment in Newark we use hypnotherapy as a way of helping our clients address any unhelpful thoughts or feelings.
Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool as can help anxiety in a number of ways.
- Hypnosis is calming and relaxing which can help to lessen feelings of anxiety.
- During hypnosis we can help our clients visualise more positive thoughts and feelings.
- Hypnosis also uses positive suggestions which can help you to change how your subconscious thinks.
- Hypnotherapy can also be used by a skilled therapist to help you find the root causes of your anxiety.
Cognitive behavioural therapy CBT does not really examine the root causes of where a person’s anxiety has come from. Whilst CBT can be incredibly helpful to some people not everyone benefits from this form of therapy.
This is because with some people it is really obvious where their anxiety is coming from. Perhaps they are in a stressful job have an unhappy relationship or suffer from illness. For others, however, it can be difficult to work out what is creating the problem just by consciously talking to someone else.
Hypnotherapy is one of the only forms of therapy that enables clients to become so relaxed in a trance-like state that their real thoughts and feelings come to the surface.
In just about every case our clients know the answers deep down but either they have forgotten what started the problem in the first place or alternatively, they have never connected remembered incidents to the issue.
A skilled hypnotherapist is usually able to start questioning their clients under hypnosis to put together the jigsaw puzzle. Once there is a better understanding of why the problem is there it can be easier to aim therapy at the exact problem rather than guessing about its origins.
Avoidance and Anxiety Disorders
Avoidance often plays a major role in perpetuating anxiety.
When you are feeling anxious, it’s natural to want to avoid the things that provoke any feelings of unease. However, while avoidance provides temporary relief, it reinforces the anxiety over the long term.
When someone repeatedly avoids anxiety-inducing situations, the nervous system never learns the feared outcome isn’t likely to happen. Avoidance prevents new learning from occurring. It also leads to withdrawal from activities, restricted lifestyles, and increased focus on the anxiety itself.
Therapy can help our clients confront their fears in a gradual, controlled way to break the avoidance cycle. Mindfulness and distress tolerance skills also teach clients how to face anxiety triggers without fleeing.
By refusing to give into the avoidance impulse, anxiety sufferers can gradually get used to their perceived fearful situations or thoughts without being overwhelmed. Though avoiding anxiety may seem protective, it typically causes more suffering in the end.
Booking Online Anxiety Treatment
Online therapy has now become a highly effective way to conveniently access treatment for anxiety without ever leaving your home.
Through secure video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, our clients can connect remotely to access their therapist without the need to commute to an office for therapy.
This expands the options for our anxious clients who may not have therapists nearby or who may not want to drive miles to a therapy clinic. The familiarity of being in your home environment can also help some anxious people feel more at ease opening up to their therapist.
Online therapy means you have a more confidential space in which to talk which makes the therapeutic relationship easier. Remote therapy is also just as successful as face-to-face work and can be used for hypnosis, mindfulness, CBT, counselling and psychotherapy.
When you work online with an experienced therapist you are able to access customized anxiety treatment in Newark on Trent or worldwide via a huge range of digital apps.

Self Hypnosis for Anxiety
As part of our anxiety treatment in Newark on Trent we also help our clients by teaching them self-hypnosis which is a powerful technique to help you alter how you think.
When you suffer from anxiety it can make you feel like you are on high alert all the time which leads to worry, restlessness and uncomfortable feelings.
By teaching you self-hypnosis for anxiety we are able to help to teach your mind to switch off and relax which helps to lower background feelings of anxiety.
Plus the positive suggestions that are given whilst you are practicing self-hypnosis can teach your mind to think differently about your worries and fears.
All our clients receive a self-hypnosis for anxiety download as part of their program. If you are unable to work with us personally you can purchase this download along with many others in our online store.
Our self-hypnosis download program has been designed to assist with generalised anxiety, sleep problems, worrying and negative thinking as well as panic attacks.
What Forms of Anxiety Do We Work With?
There are many different forms of anxiety each with its own set of symptoms that can be helped with our therapy in Newark on Trent. Here are the main issues that we work with at our private practice.
Panic Attacks
Hypnotherapy can be a great help in teaching people to manage feelings of panic when they occur so that they can take back control.
Our therapy uses hypnosis, mindfulness, NLP, breathing techniques and coaching to help to reduce panic attacks. We also look at the root causes of the problem so you are aware of the triggers.
OCD
This form of anxiety is categorised by an obsessive need or compulsion to carry out repeated behaviours. If this ritual is not done the person feels high levels of anxiety and panic. Both hypnotherapy and CBT can be useful in helping a person delay the rituals and take control of their fear.*
PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder can be triggered by everything from an assault to a car crash. Usually, this form of anxiety triggers flashbacks to the incident creating a waking nightmare. EMDR as well as hypnosis can be used to manage these feelings.*
Fears and Phobias
A good percentage of the population will have a fear or a phobia. This may be insects, a fear of being ill or even something unusual such as a fear of clowns. We use exposure therapy and hypnosis to address the problem and where necessary we look at the root cause of the problem.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety is a worry or fear about embarrassing yourself or being judged by others. It usually has its roots in childhood.
Therapy can be a great way of exploring the reasons why the problem exists as well as empowering you to think differently about the problem.
