Quieten Your Mind - Find Calm Within
At Reconnect Hypnotherapy, Leonie works with all types of anxiety — from panic attacks and phobias to OCD and PTSD. This approach is called hypnotherapy, a therapeutic method involving guided hypnosis to help manage anxiety and related conditions. Through gentle hypnotherapy sessions, you can reframe subconscious triggers, restore nervous system balance, and regain the confidence to live a fully engaged life.
What Is Anxiety and How Does It Affect Daily Life?
Anxiety is a condition that drastically affects your quality of life, often resulting in a persistent feeling of worry, fear, and restlessness that can make daily tasks seem overwhelming. Anxiety may impact your confidence, relationships, sleep, work, and almost every aspect of your well-being.
From panic attacks to phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and even PTSD, anxiety can manifest in many forms. Often, it limits people’s worlds — one panic episode while driving may stop someone from driving alone; one panic attack in a shopping centre may lead to avoiding shops altogether.
Hypnotherapy can help people feel calmer and more in control by changing their internal feelings and responses to anxiety triggers.
“Anxiety can make people’s worlds very small—if someone has a panic attack while driving, they may stop driving alone. If it happens in a shopping centre, they may avoid shops altogether, until they don’t even want to leave the house. Hypnotherapy helps open their world back up again.”
Why Choose Hypnotherapy for Anxiety Relief in Western Sydney?
Hypnotherapy is a highly safe and effective method for combating anxiety. Clinically supported, it empowers you to make meaningful changes at a deep subconscious level. Unlike traditional therapies that focus on the conscious mind, hypnotherapy works with the subconscious — where patterns and triggers are stored.
Research highlights the effectiveness of hypnotherapy for anxiety, with studies and meta-analyses showing significant positive outcomes in reducing anxiety symptoms compared to other treatments and control groups.
Leonie explains:
“Traditional talk therapies focus on the conscious mind. Hypnotherapy communicates with the subconscious—where the patterns and triggers sit—so the nervous system may settle, and change may happen faster and more deeply.”
Scientific studies and meta-analyses have demonstrated the efficacy of hypnotherapy in reducing anxiety symptoms, further supporting its use as a reliable treatment option.
Types of Anxiety Hypnotherapy Can Support
Hypnotherapy can support a range of mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders and related issues.
Reconnect Hypnotherapy works with all forms of anxiety, including:
- Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD): Constant worry, tension, and unease
- Social Anxiety: Fear of judgment, public speaking, or social settings
- Phobias: Fear of driving, flying, crowds, or specific triggers
- Panic Attacks: Sudden surges of fear and physical symptoms
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours
- PTSD and Trauma: Calming the nervous system and rebuilding safety after distressing experiences
“Anxiety can come from trauma or accumulate over years of stress, leaving the nervous system on constant high alert. Hypnotherapy helps settle the nervous system and bring the mind and body back into balance.”

Client Transformations Through Anxiety Hypnotherapy
Leonie has guided many clients from avoidance and fear to calm, confidence, and clarity.
- Shopping Centres: Clients who avoided shops for months after a panic attack returned calmly, reporting better sleep and clearer thinking. Many noticed they could change their behaviours, such as facing crowded places, after hypnotherapy.
- Driving Confidence: Individuals who stopped driving alone gradually regained independence after reframing their subconscious fear of driving.

"Clients often report improvements beyond anxiety itself—better sleep, less brain fog, clearer focus, and calmer moods."
Anxiety Hypnotherapy Success Stories from Reconnect Hypnotherapy
Lachlan’s story is an example of how hypnotherapy can help a person overcome anxiety. The 15-year-old was struggling with overwhelming anxiety that left him unable to attend school. As his world grew smaller, he became increasingly isolated and depressed, with social media becoming his only connection to the outside world. His parents were distraught after trying several therapies without success.
After just three hypnotherapy sessions, Lachlan, as a person who experienced significant change through hypnotherapy, saw a positive shift. His confidence began to return, and he was ready to take the first step of returning to school and reconnect with friends in the real world – rather than online. Hope was restored for both Lachlan and his family.

FAQs for Anxiety Hypnotherapy
What types of anxiety do you treat?
All forms—generalised anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, panic attacks, OCD, and PTSD. Hypnotherapy can also assist with smoking cessation and help patients manage cancer-related stress and other conditions.
How is hypnotherapy different from medication or counselling?
Medication may reduce symptoms temporarily. Counselling works with the conscious mind. Hypnotherapy is a form of psychotherapy that addresses the subconscious, where triggers are stored, allowing for change to occur more quickly and deeply. A qualified counsellor or therapist should provide hypnotherapy to ensure safe and effective treatment.
What improvements can I expect?
Is hypnotherapy safe?
Yes. Hypnotherapy is safe and clinically supported. Research by scientists and researchers, including meta-analysis, has shown that hypnotherapy is safe and effective. Most people remain aware and in control during sessions, experiencing an altered state of consciousness rather than sleep or unconsciousness.
Do you provide tools for ongoing use?
Yes. Every client leaves with practical relaxation, mindfulness, and self-hypnosis techniques to help them achieve lasting relaxation and well-being. Hypnosis work involves focused attention and mental exercises that influence the brain’s activity, supporting ongoing progress.
