How do you track progress and results?

Written by Tara on . No Comments on How do you track progress and results?

Every client’s journey is unique, so I use a dedicated app to help you stay on track and see your progress in real time. Whether you’re working on physical fitness, mindset, or habit change, your plan is created around your personal goals, and adapted as you grow.

Inside the app, you can log sessions, track milestones, message me directly, and review your progress whenever you like. I monitor everything from activity and outcomes to mood and motivation, so we can make adjustments that keep things effective and achievable.

No two programmes are identical, your plan evolves with you.

What’s the difference between hypnotherapy and counselling?

Written by Tara on .

Counselling and hypnotherapy both aim to support personal change, but they work through very different mechanisms.

Counselling focuses on talking through experiences, emotions, and relationships to gain understanding and perspective. It helps you process the past and explore patterns of thought and behaviour through reflective conversation.

Hypnotherapy, in contrast, works directly with the subconscious mind, the part responsible for habits, emotional responses, and automatic reactions. In a relaxed, focused state, you can reshape underlying beliefs and associations more efficiently than through conscious discussion alone.

Some people find counselling helps them process and understand, while hypnotherapy helps them retrain and move forward. Both approaches can complement each other depending on your needs.

You can learn more about my approach on the Hypnotherapy page, or explore Life Coaching if you’re interested in a practical, goal-focused path to change.

Is hypnotherapy safe for everyone?

Written by Tara on .

Yes, when it’s delivered by a qualified professional, hypnotherapy is completely safe. It’s simply a relaxed, focused state where you remain aware and in control throughout. There’s no loss of willpower or “mind control,” just guided attention to help you access the part of your mind that runs your automatic habits, beliefs, and emotions.

It isn’t suitable for everyone, though. People with certain psychiatric or neurological conditions (such as psychosis, epilepsy, or severe dissociative symptoms) should speak with their doctor first. I always review your health history and goals before any session to make sure the approach is right for you.

Hypnotherapy can support a wide range of issues, from sleep and stress to motivation, weight management, or unwanted habits. You can explore the different ways I use it on the Hypnotherapy page.

Not sure which approach feels right for you? Book an appointment and we’ll find the best way forward, whether that’s insight-based, subconscious, or a mix of both.

Do you offer online appointments?

Most of my work is delivered in person here in Lincoln, as I find therapy and training are most effective face-to-face. In some cases I may be able to support clients remotely, depending on their needs and the type of work involved. For those who prefer flexibility from home, I also offer self-guided programmes (with audio and structured schedules), and I can design tailored plans through the UTherapy app for clients who want ongoing guidance and accountability outside of appointments.
