Meet Leonie
Leonie O’Connell is the founder of Reconnect Hypnotherapy and a highly respected Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, and Trainer, with practices in Chatswood and Kingswood.
Leonie believes that every person holds the power within their own mind to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. Her role is to gently guide and support clients as they reconnect with the inner strength and wisdom that has always been within them.
With years of clinical experience and a deep passion for helping others, Leonie has guided thousands of people to find peace, confidence, and transformation in areas of life that once felt impossible to change.
She understands that real and lasting change begins deep beneath surface thoughts within the subconscious mind, where old patterns, fears, and emotions quietly shape how people think, feel, and behave. Through her gentle yet powerful hypnotherapy processes, refined over many years, Leonie helps clients access that deeper part of themselves where true healing and transformation occur.
Clients often describe her presence as calm, compassionate, and deeply reassuring. Leonie’s work is both heart-centred and results-driven, blending insight, science, and intuition to create profound
and lasting change.
If you’re ready to take meaningful steps toward healing, self-belief, and freedom, Leonie will guide you every step of the way, helping you reconnect with your calm, confidence, and capacity to live fully again.

Our Main Services
Anxiety
Anxiety can impact every part of life—confidence, sleep, work, and relationships—leaving even simple daily tasks feeling overwhelming. It may show up as panic attacks, phobias, OCD, or PTSD, and stop you from living the life you deserve. Hypnotherapy offers a safe and clinically proven way to address these challenges at a deep, subconscious level.
Weight loss
Struggling with weight can feel frustrating—especially when diets and exercise programs don’t bring lasting results. Often, the real challenge isn’t just food or fitness, but the mind. Stress, trauma, negative thought patterns, and emotional eating may all play a role in holding onto extra weight. With the right approach, reaching your ideal weight becomes possible.
PTSD
Living with unresolved trauma or PTSD can feel overwhelming, leaving many trapped in cycles of fear, sadness, anger, or confusion. These emotions not only affect mental health but may also impact physical wellbeing. The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP) offers a gentle, effective way to release the weight of the past and step into a calmer, more joyful life.
Quit Smoking and Vaping
Quitting smoking may feel impossible when stress, cravings, and withdrawal symptoms take over. But smoking is not just a habit—it’s an unconscious pattern that keeps you stuck, often without even real enjoyment. Leonie’s advanced Hypnotherapy process helps break through the willpower barrier, releasing cravings and unconscious triggers so you can finally be free.
Gambling
Breaking free from gambling may feel impossible when urges, stress, and the cycle of loss take control. Gambling is not just a habit—it’s an unconscious pattern that keeps you stuck, often leaving you with regret instead of enjoyment. Leonie’s advanced Hypnotherapy works at the subconscious level to release the triggers and compulsions that fuel gambling addiction.
