Welcome to The Calm Reset Hypnotherapy Practice

Transform your life with Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH) — personalized, evidence-based, and delivered in-person or online

Welcome to my practice: helping you feel calm, confident and in control

Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or the demands of everyday life? Are unhelpful habits, worries, or IBS symptoms holding you back? You’re not alone. So many people face these struggles, and it can feel exhausting trying to manage them on your own.

I’m Carmela, and I’m here to help. As a qualified Cognitive Behavioral Hypnotherapist (CBH), I use an evidence-based approach that combines cognitive behavioral techniques with hypnotherapy to address both your conscious thoughts and the subconscious patterns that influence your behaviour. My work supports clients suffering with anxiety, phobias, IBS, pain and habits they want to change.

Every session is personalised and collaborative. Together, we’ll explore what may be keeping you stuck and develop practical tools to help you feel calmer, more confident, and in control. My aim is to create a space where you feel supported to explore your thoughts and behaviours and make meaningful change in your life, whether in person or online.

I am a proud member of the International Council of Integrative Psychotherapists (ICIP), and hold a Level 5 Diploma in Cognitive Behavioral Hypnotherapy (Dip CBH). These memberships and qualifications reflect my commitment to professional, ethical, and evidence-based practice.

If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be glad to support you.

What can I help you with?

Fears, Phobias & Anxiety

Support for anxiety, fears, phobias, and low self-esteem focuses on understanding the patterns that keep anxiety active and confidence low. Sessions combine practical cognitive and behavioural strategies with gentle, supportive hypnotherapy to help clients feel calmer, more regulated, and more confident in themselves.

Changing Your Relationship with Food

Help for people who want to move away from unhelpful eating patterns and develop a calmer, more balanced relationship with food, without dieting. Sessions focus on understanding the thoughts, habits, and emotional triggers that drive eating behaviours, using practical cognitive strategies alongside gentle, supportive hypnotherapy. This approach helps reduce food-related stress, increase awareness and support lasting, sustainable change.

Smoking & Vaping

This approach helps people change habits around smoking or vaping and reduce the pull of cravings. Sessions focus on understanding personal triggers, automatic patterns, and the role stress or emotion can play in maintaining the habit. Practical cognitive strategies are used alongside gentle, supportive hypnotherapy where appropriate, helping to strengthen motivation, increase a sense of control and choice, and support more sustainable behaviour change over time.

Gut-Directed Hypnotherapy

Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy works with the gut–brain connection by supporting nervous system regulation and helping people respond differently to stress and unhelpful thought patterns that can affect digestive symptoms. This approach is well researched and is often used to support individuals who experience ongoing gut discomfort, bloating, and stress, alongside appropriate medical care.

  • Support through stress, burnout, overwhelm and anxiety

    As a cognitive behavioural hypnotherapist, Carmela holds such a calm, nurturing presence. She works with women of all ages and stages of life, supporting them through stress, burnout, emotional overwhelm and anxiety and the everyday weight we often carry in silence.

    I’ve had the privilege of receiving Carmela’s guidance over the years and I can truly say she has such a gentle yet powerful way of helping you reconnect with yourself. Her wisdom, her calm voice, her grounded energy, they all stay with you long after your time together.

    If you are feeling the need for more ease, clarity, or support in your life I can’t recommend Carmela highly enough.

  • I can't recommend Carmela enough!

    I sought out Carmela whilst navigating a difficult and acrimonious divorce. It was the best support I could have wished for as I navigated my new life with my son. Her calm and open approach allows you to dig deep and address areas of your life that need adjustment. She also has some great practical advice which has since helped with navigating work and home life. I highly recommend her sessions.

  • Working with Carmela has been transformative for me.

    During a time of major life transitions, Carmela has helped me to find clarity and confidence. Her unwavering support and encouragement empowered me to embrace a growth mindset and see challenges as opportunities. I am now more resilient, optimistic and aligned with my goals than ever. I am truly grateful for Carmela’s insight and compassion and her continued support as I move through life.

  • Working with Carmela has been a truly life changing experience.

    Her thoughtful guidance and insights have helped me reflect on how I show up in different areas of my life and gain clarity around both my personal and professional goals.

    With her support, I’ve developed greater confidence and self-awareness and I’ve grown in ways I never imagined. One of the most important lessons I learnt is the power of prioritizing my mental health. I’m so grateful to have met her and highly recommend her to anyone who’s ready for meaningful change!

  • What Carmela has helped me to achieve is quite remarkable and hard to put into words

    Carmela’s CBH sessions felt so gentle and supportive with small steps each week that gently shifted how I thought and felt without anything ever feeling overwhelming. When I look back the change in my life is amazing. I have now set up my own small business, something I never would have believed I could do before. The tools I have learned have helped me feel so much more confident and capable, not just in work but in my life generally. If you are thinking about working with Carmela, I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough. I just wish I had started sooner!

  • I have thoroughly enjoyed and so looked forward to our sessions each week

    Carmela is so warm and easy to talk to, extremely welcoming, friendly and just so calm! During my time spent with her I have learned that making small changes in our limiting beliefs can have a huge impact on day to day life. Its incredible and through our sessions, I have become so much more fulfilled and happy in myself and in turn the atmosphere at home is exactly what I had hoped for and my family are much happier too!

  • Flying without fear!

    I honestly can’t recommend Carmela highly enough. I’ve had a lifelong, genuinely crippling fear of flying that has shaped so many decisions in my life, and I’d reached the point where I believed it was something I’d just have to live with. I even tried a well-known hypnotherapist who worked with the Kardashians(!), but despite the hype, it didn’t touch the fear in any meaningful or lasting way.

    Working with Carmela through CB hypnotherapy was completely different. Her approach was thoughtful, grounded, and tailored to how my mind actually works. Rather than just trying to override the fear, we unpacked it, understood it, and then rewired it in a way that finally made sense to my nervous system.

    For the first time in my life, flying no longer feels terrifying or overwhelming. That still feels remarkable to say. The change hasn’t been superficial or forced it feels real, calm, and integrated.

    If you’ve tried “everything” and feel like you’re beyond help, please don’t give up before speaking to Carmela. This work has genuinely changed my life, and I’m so grateful.

  • Havent smoked in two weeks!
