Welcome to
If you’ve found your way to this page, you may be feeling ready for a change or looking for support with something that’s been holding you back for far too long. Whether you’re trying to break a habit, quieten anxious thoughts, regain control, or feel more confident and capable in yourself again, I want you to know this first:
My path into hypnotherapy began through my own life experiences. In my early adult years, I faced significant challenges, including the loss of both my parents at a young age, a divorce , and the pressures of a demanding corporate career and later running my own business.
During this time, I experienced anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties and low self-esteem. I have always been fascinated by how the mind works. My interest began early in life when I was part of my Uncle’s psychology research while he was studying for his degree, and I later went on to study child psychology at college.
After many unsuccessful attempts to create lasting change, I discovered hypnotherapy. The results were life-changing. I lost over four stone in weight, improved my sleep, rebuilt my confidence and overcame anxiety and depression. This personal transformation inspired me to train as a clinical hypnotherapist so I could help others experience the same positive change.
I trained with Matthew Cahill, an experienced hypnotherapist and author of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy: A Practitioner’s Guide, who has a worked in Harley Street and Devon and gained my Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy.
I am committed to ongoing professional development in hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I use the CORP client progress system to help clients track and see the positive changes they are making.
My ethos is simple: to help clients develop a calm mind, clear direction, and achieve lasting, positive change.
At Catherine Beacom Hypnotherapy, I offer compassionate, clinical hypnotherapy from my base in Exeter, supporting clients across Newton Abbot, London, and online for those further afield. My approach is calm, supportive, and always centred around helping you feel safe, understood, and in control of your progress.
One of the most important things I want you to feel when you work with me is that you can truly be yourself.
I understand what it’s like to be on the other side, because I’ve been there too. I know how vulnerable it can feel to reach out for support. I know the worry of wondering whether something will work, or whether you’ll be judged, or whether you’ll be able to change at all.
That’s why my sessions are built on trust, empathy, and genuine care, with no pressure and no judgement. Just a steady space for you to breathe, talk, and begin moving forward.
Catherine Beacom Hypnotherapy Clinic was established following my deeply personal journey with hypnotherapy that genuinely changed my life.
Hypnotherapy helped me in ways I didn’t expect. It gave me clarity when things felt confusing. It helped me overcome challenges, shift long-held patterns, and regain a sense of control and confidence in myself again.
Experiencing that first-hand created something very powerful in me: a sense of purpose.
I didn’t just want to understand hypnotherapy – I wanted to use it to help others the way I had been helped. I founded this practice because I knew I wanted to support people through positive change, not only professionally, but with real understanding and empathy.
If something in you is saying “it’s time”, even quietly, I’d love to support you.
You don’t need to have the perfect words. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You simply need a starting point, and we can take it from there, together.
You deserve support that feels safe, compassionate, and genuinely life-changing.
