Focused Online Hypnotherapy Across the UK
You do not need to travel to Harley Street to work with me. I offer private online hypnotherapy throughout the UK for anxiety, panic, phobias and other automatic patterns that continue despite what you consciously know.
Book an initial consultation
Specialist work without being restricted by geography.
You might be managing a demanding career while privately replaying conversations, checking your body, preparing for every possible outcome or arranging your life around something you fear may happen.
You may recognise exactly how irrational or disproportionate the response has become. That does not necessarily stop the physical feeling, the thought that arrives immediately or the urge to check, avoid, prepare or seek reassurance.
This is where focused online hypnotherapy can help.
Online sessions
Can hypnotherapy be carried out online?
Yes. Online hypnotherapy allows us to carry out the same focused therapeutic work while you remain in a private, familiar environment.
You can speak to me directly, hear everything throughout the session and respond normally. You do not lose control or become unaware of what is happening.
The important part is not whether we are sitting in the same room. It is whether you can engage privately, hear me clearly and give the session your attention.
You will need a reliable internet connection, a laptop, tablet or suitable phone, somewhere private where you will not be interrupted and a comfortable place to sit or recline. Headphones can help you concentrate, although they are not essential.
You do not need specialist equipment or previous experience of hypnosis.
Specialist areas
What can online hypnotherapy help with?
I work with people whose difficulties can look very different on the surface but are being maintained by a similar automatic process underneath.
A thought, situation or physical sensation activates a prediction. Your body responds to that prediction. You do something to reduce the discomfort, such as checking, avoiding, preparing, escaping or asking for reassurance.
The relief makes sense in the moment. It can also teach your mind that the protective response was necessary.
Online hypnotherapy may be appropriate for high-functioning anxiety, panic attacks, health anxiety, overthinking, reassurance seeking, anticipatory anxiety, social and professional anxiety, phobias and the automatic patterns that can remain after a toxic or controlling relationship.
The focus is not on fitting you into a broad category. We identify what activates your particular response, what keeps reinforcing it and how you want to think, feel and behave instead.

What happens during online hypnotherapy?
We begin with an initial consultation. This is a private conversation about what is happening, what you want to change and whether my focused approach is suitable for you.
You do not need to arrive with a perfect explanation. Many clients know that something is taking far too much energy without yet understanding why the response continues.
I listen for the pattern underneath the details. What starts it? What does your mind predict? What do you do next? What provides relief, and what does that relief teach your mind to repeat?
The work is then shaped around your specific outcome. I do not use a generic recording or ask every client to follow the same script. Your sessions are focused on the response you want to change and the way you want to experience the relevant situations instead.
Why has understanding the problem not stopped it?
You may know that the plane is safe and still feel unable to board. You may have received reassuring medical results and still check your body. You may understand that one imperfect answer will not destroy your career and still replay the meeting that evening.
You may know that ending a harmful relationship was the right decision and still feel an automatic pull to check, explain or respond.
Logical understanding matters, but automatic responses are not always waiting for further information.
By the time conscious reasoning begins, your mind and body may already be carrying out a familiar protective sequence. The work focuses on changing that learned response, rather than asking you to argue with it more convincingly.
My clinical observation
Capable people can become very skilled at accommodating the problem.
In my work, I often meet people who prepare more, check more carefully, avoid particular circumstances or make sure somebody trusted is nearby. Because they continue functioning, other people may never see the amount of effort involved.
The issue is not a lack of intelligence, strength or insight.
The protective behaviour has become convincing because it brings relief. That relief then makes the same response feel necessary next time.
Our work is focused on helping you move beyond that pattern without removing the judgement, care or capability that already serves you well.
The Focused Hypnotherapy Programme
A focused programme of 1–4 sessions.
Focused work for people ready to move beyond the pattern.
02 · STRUCTURED
One to four sessions
Some clients find one or two sessions are all they need. I recommend the appropriate option after your consultation.
03 · SUPPORTED
Audio and ongoing support
Every client receives supporting audio and ongoing support from me as part of the programme.
Is online hypnotherapy right for me?
Online sessions can be particularly useful if you live outside London, have a demanding or unpredictable schedule, prefer to attend from home, find travel difficult or want specialist help without being restricted by geography.
Online work should still take place somewhere private and appropriate. Sessions should not be attended while driving, working, supervising children or completing another activity.
If your circumstances mean online sessions would not be suitable, we can discuss that during the initial consultation.
London and UK-wide
Online throughout the UK, with Harley Street appointments available.
You can work with me online from England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland.
You receive the same individual attention, focused programme, supporting audio and ongoing support wherever you are based.
If you prefer to attend in person, private appointments are available in Cavendish Square, within London’s Harley Street medical district.
The location changes. The standard and focus of the work do not.

Online hypnotherapy questions.
Do I need to live in London to work with Louise Squires?
No. Online hypnotherapy appointments are available throughout the UK. In-person appointments are also available in Cavendish Square, London.
Is online hypnotherapy different from attending in person?
The focused therapeutic process remains the same. You speak with me privately in real time and remain aware and able to respond throughout. The main difference is that you attend from your own private space rather than the Harley Street consulting room.
How many online hypnotherapy sessions will I need?
The Focused Hypnotherapy Programme involves one to four structured sessions. Some clients find one or two sessions are all they need. I recommend the appropriate option after understanding the nature and impact of your individual pattern.
