# Anna Hamada - Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist

Anna Hamada is a qualified Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist (HDipCBH) based in Cheltenham, with additional availability in Ledbury and online. She specialises in combining evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with Hypnotherapy to help clients overcome a range of psychological and behavioural challenges.

Her practice focuses on anxiety, stress, insomnia, performance anxiety (whether in arts, sports, or corporate settings), social anxiety, phobias, habit reversal, and menopause-related concerns. Rather than offering temporary relief, Anna equips clients with practical skills and self-awareness tools to become their own therapist. She works by helping clients recognise how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours interconnect, then uses guided hypnosis to access the subconscious mind and challenge ingrained patterns.

What distinguishes Anna's approach is her emphasis on empowerment and practical application. Sessions are conducted in a warm, safe environment where clients maintain full awareness and control—dispelling common misconceptions about hypnotherapy. Her goal-oriented methodology ensures clients learn techniques applicable long after therapy concludes, fostering lasting change rather than dependency on ongoing treatment.

Anna recognises that everyone's journey is different; she tailors her evidence-based approach to what feels right for each individual. Her integration of mindfulness, CBT, and hypnosis creates a transformative process addressing not just specific issues but overall wellbeing and quality of life.
