About Dawn O'Donoghue and New Day Therapies
A professional, dedicated and affordable hypnotherapy practice serving Hull, Hornsea, Pocklington and the wider East Riding.
It started with a hypnotherapist and a nervous nineteen year old
My name is Dawn O'Donoghue and I run a professional, dedicated and affordable hypnotherapy practice. I pride myself in being fully qualified, registered and insured.
My own experience with hypnotherapy began at 19 when, lacking self confidence, I sought the help of a hypnotherapist. Since then I have given lectures to large audiences, taught in schools and continue to use my own knowledge to help my clients as they work to overcome issues they have experienced in their lives.
Nearly thirty years as a teacher and tutor sits behind all of this. It is where I learned how differently people take in information, how quietly stress can build in someone who looks like they are coping, and how much changes when somebody finally feels listened to.
My job is not to tackle your issues on your behalf, but to help and support you as you develop the tools to make changes and, according to my client's feedback and reviews, I am good at it. If you would like to read what clients have actually written, the reviews page has them in full.
It's your therapy, and it should be done the way that works best for you
I offer a range of therapies which are professional and bespoke, focusing on you and what you need to change.
Hypnotherapy
Using the subconscious mind to shift patterns that conscious effort alone struggles to reach. Nothing like stage hypnotism, and you stay in control throughout.
Psychotherapy
Traditional talking therapy, with your wellbeing at the core. Sometimes the most useful hour is simply one where somebody is properly listening.
Emotional Freedom Technique
A simple method that can be taught to anyone, young or old. It does not require you to discuss painful memories out loud, which many people find easier.
Inner Child Workshops
Four sessions of questionnaires, resources, hypnotic regression through four childhood phases, and drawing as a route to self discovery.
NLP, CBT and visualisation
Practical techniques drawn on where they fit, rather than applied to everyone the same way. We choose together at the consultation.
Sleep and relaxation
As a Sleep Consultant and Relaxation Professional Therapist, I can extend my service to suit your individual needs.
The Hypnocom machine
At New Day Therapies you always come first. That is why I have invested in a Hypnocom machine. This little device allows you to listen to our session through noise cancelling headphones, my voice and binaural beat music is piped directly to your ears. It's like having a hypnotherapy session but without any possible distraction.
The Hypnocom machine has a great track record for helping people have the best hypnotherapy experience possible.
