About Me

Hello, I’m Joanna Hannaford, a Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, and Life Coach dedicated to helping you transform your thoughts, unlock your potential, and create lasting change in your life. With years of experience and a deep understanding of personal strength, I offer a range of therapeutic services tailored to your unique needs.
My Approach
I believe that true transformation begins within. By working with both the conscious and subconscious mind, I help my clients’ overcome challenges, release limiting beliefs, and achieve their personal and professional goals. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and solution-focused, ensuring you feel empowered every step of the way.
Transformative Healing for Personal Growth

I create a safe and supportive environment for individuals to explore their inner selves and achieve lasting improvements. I also integrate other modalities such as Life Coaching, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Rapid Anxiety Reduction method (RARM) plus more.

Qualifications and Expertise
I am fully trained and qualified in:
I specialize in helping clients with stress and anxiety, weight loss (including hypnotic gastric banding), smoking cessation, confidence building, and overcoming emotional challenges.
My Journey
My personal experience has shaped my practice in profound ways. As a breast cancer survivor, I understand firsthand how life’s challenges can affect the mind, body, and spirit. Navigating my own journey through treatment and recovery taught me the importance of mental strength, self-compassion, and the power of holistic healing. These experiences have deepened my empathy and strengthened my commitment to helping others overcome adversity and thrive.
Why Work With Me?
I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals. My practice is built on the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth and transformation, no matter their circumstances. Together, we’ll develop strategies and solutions that work for you.
Beyond the Therapy Room
Outside of my practice, I find joy and inspiration in the simple things, like spending time with my husband, Kieron and my two beagle boys Freddie & Enzo. They remind me to live in the moment and embrace life’s small pleasures. I am an avid cook and love to get out for a daily walk and I undertake daily meditation. I also love spending time with my friends. I am currently studying with the The BioMedical Institute of Yoga & Meditation (BIYOME) and undertaking my studies in Professional Senior Educator in Meditation & The Awakening of Human Consciousness. I believe continued study keeps us fresh, current and provides more in-depth knowledge for my clients.
