Louise Squires · Anxiety and phobia specialist

Calm, direct and entirely focused on what needs to change.

I am a clinical hypnotherapist and psychotherapist specialising in anxiety, panic and phobias. I help capable people change automatic responses that continue despite what they consciously know.

Louise Squires, Harley Street clinical hypnotherapist

You do not need to perform therapy well.

You do not need to arrive calm, articulate or certain that hypnotherapy will work. You do need to be open to a focused approach and willing to engage with the process, including when a different response feels unfamiliar.

The initial consultation is where we make sense of what is happening and decide whether we are a good fit for working together. My style is warm, straightforward and precise, and I keep the work centred on meaningful change.

Clinical experience

Specialist work shaped by more than 1,000 private clients.

Anxiety rarely presents in exactly the same way twice. One person is Googling symptoms at 3am. Another is replaying a meeting, needing an escape route or cancelling plans because the possibility of panic feels too risky.

What these patterns often share is an automatic attempt to create safety. Checking, reassurance, preparation and avoidance can provide short-term relief, while quietly teaching the mind that the situation was dangerous and the safety behaviour was necessary.

That is the mechanism we look for. The work is tailored to the sequence your mind has learned rather than applying a generic explanation to your anxiety.

Focused work for people ready to move forward.

Many of my clients are high functioning. They manage careers, families and demanding responsibilities while using an exhausting amount of energy to stay composed.

They are not looking to analyse the problem indefinitely. They are ready to understand what is keeping it active, engage with a focused process and build the response they want instead.

My Focused Hypnotherapy Programme is delivered through one to four structured sessions. Some clients find one or two sessions are all they need, and every client receives supporting audio and ongoing support from me. Appointments are available at Cavendish Square in London and online.

Let’s find out what needs to change.

Your initial consultation is a private conversation about what is happening, the outcome you want and the support I recommend.
