Mr John Hurton

Counselor

“An experienced Hypnotherapist and Counsellor working with adults and children covering a wide range of self-limiting issues.”

About Me

This counsellor and hypnotherapist helps adults and children navigate a wide range of self-limiting issues. When old patterns or beliefs hold you back, we can gently explore them together. Through supportive Counseling and tailored hypnotherapy, this practice offers a focused way to release what limits you. Clients seeking to transform self-doubt into confidence will find a dedicated space to grow and move forward.

Approach

With many adults and young people I focus sessions on pairing calm guided visualisation with reflective conversation to uncover patterns that interrupt daily life. In my Melton Mowbray room, conducted in English, you’ll find steady pacing: brief grounding, a focused imagery phase, then practical steps to practise between meetings. I work collaboratively to set small, achievable goals and tailor techniques to anxiety, addiction, career or health challenges. People looking for practical, gentle change often find this way of working helpful.
