What Others Say
"Cairns Hypnotherapists has been fantastic and I have seen great results since meeting with Gordon over a few sessions. I would highly recommend Cairns Hypnotherapists to anyone who is looking for natural, effective therapy. Gordon was very professional, calm, supportive, compassionate and the results were evident within a few sessions.
Thank you Gordon."
My Therapeutic Approach
My approach to therapy is simple and entirely centered on you. It’s easy to feel like you’re the only one struggling while everyone else seems to have it all together, but I promise you’re not alone. Most people fall into one of two categories: those with healthy, effective habits and those stuck in patterns that don’t serve them well. Whether these patterns are helpful or harmful, they’re shaped by the way we think and behave over time. The good news? Any habit can be unlearned. You might not know how to do that yet, but that’s where I step in. It’s often an unconscious process, and I’m here to guide you through it.
You’ve probably noticed that simply talking about your problems doesn’t always lead to real change. That’s why I use tools like hypnosis and trance-based techniques—they’re powerful ways to create lasting shifts. Sure, you can find endless advice online for managing anxiety or stress, but a lot of it focuses on quick fixes or temporary relief. While those strategies might help in the moment, they often don’t prepare you for the challenges life throws your way. What you need is a new way to approach uncertainty and risk. If you’re struggling, chances are you’re also imagining worst-case scenarios that are unlikely to happen. That’s the pattern we need to change. This isn’t about your past or anyone else—it’s about you. That might sound daunting, but it’s also empowering, because it means you have the ability to make a difference.
The techniques I use are the same ones I’ve taught to hundreds of therapists—counsellors, hypnotherapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists—through the Institute of Applied Psychology. For most issues, clients see significant progress in just 1 to 4 sessions. If you’re ready to commit to the process and follow my guidance, I’m confident in the results we can achieve together.
Please note that I am currently on sabbatical and not taking on new clients at this time. However, if you’d like to connect in the future, feel free to reach out. Change is possible, and I’m here to help when the time is right.
