I searched the internet looking for a Hypnotherapist to help with my anxiety and fear, I kept coming back to Mind Garden. I am so glad I contacted Sara. My experience has been amazing and so beneficial. I chose to do the 3 session package, 2 sessions via zoom and my last In person both ways were equally amazing. Sara took me on a journey to the root of where my anxiety started and gave me many tools that will guide me through a better way of thinking and a reassurance that everything is ok. I love that I have audios of our sessions to help me through and a relaxation audio to again remind me that everything is ok . I highly recommend Sara and once again I am glad I found her. ☺🧚‍♀️

As someone who had never tried hypnotherapy before I was unsure what to expect but Sara created a friendly welcoming environment which helped to put me at ease.
Her techniques have helped me to manage my anxiety and to better manage and organise my life.
I would totally recommend Sara to anyone who was considering doing hypnotherapy.

We were looking for help for my daughter who has had anxiety for most of her life - she was not so keen to try counselling so thought we would try hypnotherapy. I found Sara and so pleased I did. Our daughter has gone from having panic attacks ending up at the doctor's surgery - to now being able to live alone in Queenstown - and that is only after 4 sessions with Sara.
Thank you so much Sara you have given Jaime the confidence to move forward in life and she enjoyed so much coming to see you. You are an angel

We have had such a positive experience working with Sara. Our wee girl was struggling with anxiety and getting to school each day. She would cry each day and get so upset the night before. After a few sessions with Sara over a period of weeks I was able to take her to school this week for three whole days with no tears no nothing !!! Which believe me is amazing !!! Thank you Sara you don't know how much this means to all of us. Thank you :0 🙂

I just want to say a huge thank you to Sara.
I came to see Sara in the hope that Hypnotherapy will help me stop smoking. I was opened minded but a little nervous. As soon as the door was opened those feelings disappeared. I was made to feel comfortable and at ease.
I had a wonderful experience with Sara and yes I am smoke free.
Not only Sara help with me with smoking but also helped me deal with a lot of grief I was holding onto.
I would recommend Sara to anybody who wishes to try hypnotherapy.
I also have to say what a beautiful , kind , genuine , sincere , true soul Sara has.
Forever greatful.

About Mind Garden Hypnotherapy

Sara Wilson at Mind Garden Hypnotherapy and Mind Garden Kids provides a range of hypnotherapy services tailored to the individual

Hi, I am Sara and my passion is helping people understand and use the power of their mind.

Too often I find that people are programming their minds with what they DON’T want rather than what they DO want.  How many times have you put all your focus and energy into imagining just how bad something is going to be?  That imagination is a powerful thing – it looks at the pictures you are imagining and responds appropriately – often with physical symptoms such as a racing heart or a upset stomach.  How much better to use that power to create the life you want to live!

I first got excited about hypnotherapy when I was pregnant with my first boy.  I had read a lot about Hypnobirthing and decided to give it a try. That experience changed my life! I just couldn’t believe that I would be able to give birth without any pain but that is exactly what happened.

A few years later we had some life-changing news.  Our youngest son, Jake, was diagnosed with Leukaemia.  Suddenly we were on a path that we hadn’t prepared for but I knew Hypnotherapy could really help.  I started my diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and soon I was able to help Jake manage his symptoms in a much more effective way.

I now partner with the New Zealand School of Professional Hypnotherapy and, in my role as the National Training Manager I work with and train Hypnotherapy Students throughout the country.

If you would like to make any changes in your life and are finding that your mind is blocking your way I would love to help!

Sara 🙂

Birth Journey

$150 per session or

$360 for a 3 session package

Hypnobirthing gives you the power to birth your baby in the best possible way.  When mothers are relaxed and in control they experience the birth process in a completely different way.  Using a combination of deep relaxation, breathing techniques, birth visualisation and pain control hypnosis sessions at your own home or at my practice both mum and dad are able to be active participants in the birthing process.  Often dads are keen to be involved in the hypnosis process and I am happy to train them so that they are able to bring about a state of deep relaxation in their partners.

Gastric Band Session

$450 for a 3 session package

The Hypnotic Gastric Band session is a 3 session package that works with your subconscious mind to create the effects of gastric band surgery.

During a physical gastric band surgery the pouch at top of stomach which is normally the size of a melon is reduced to the size of a tennis ball.  A band is fitted around the stomach with a small opening which food goes through slowly. Digestion is exactly the same as before but the band physically stops you eating more than a cup of food.  With a hypnotic gastric band the subconscious mind believes that a gastric band has been fitted and responds by sending messages that you are full after just a small amount of food.   

After the “operation” you are able to eat whatever you like whenever you are hungry although now you will only be able to do so in much smaller amounts.  Pay attention to what your instincts are telling you and don’t be surprised if the foods you want to eat change.

With my background in teaching, working with children is one of the highlights of my day. I love empowering children to overcome anything that is holding them back.

Hypnosis for children works exceptionally well as they are naturally able and willing to use their creative imaginations and suspend disbelief. For children this is a very natural state and one they experience throughout their day when they are absorbed in an activity or imaginative play.

In my experience children enjoy hypnotherapy and respond exceptionally well. Children need to be over 5 years of age to get the best from hypnotherapy but younger children can still benefit from hypno-play techniques.

Typical Children’s Issues That I Have Successfully Treated With Hypnosis

Anxiety

Confidence & self esteem

Bed wetting

Nail biting

Thumb sucking

Nightmares

Anxiety about school

Anxiety about the dentist

Anxiety about hospitals or treatment

Separation anxiety

Fussy eating

Pain

What is a Typical Session of Hypnosis For Children Like?

1. A telephone consultation with a parent or guardian where I get their perspective on the problem and the desired outcome.

2. I expect a parent or guardian to be present during the first session. For subsequent sessions you can stay if the young person would prefer you to be there.

 3. At the first session I want to get the child’s perspective. We talk about how they experience the problem, how long they have been this way and how they would prefer to think, feel and behave instead.

4. At all times I guide the child towards the solution and identify strengths and resources that the child already has, which will be useful.

5. The hypnosis session will always deliver positive suggestions to boost their confidence in addition to guided visualization to overcoming their problem

6. For most issues the child will receive a specially recorded hypnosis CD for use at home.

Things You Should Know About Your Child’s Hypnotherapy Session

The young person must engage willingly. I recommend that the parent or guardian discuss coming to see me and if necessary should come for a free consult to put the child at ease.

Hypnotherapy is completely safe, there are no side effects. Hypnosis cannot make your child do anything against their will. The session is totally child centered. So I will talk with the child not to them or about them.

The number of sessions required depends upon the problem presented but typically most issues can be resolved in 2 to 4 sessions. Each session lasts between one hour and one hour thirty minutes.

Hypnosis for children is effective, safe and no matter what the presenting problem is aimed at enhancing the young person’s confidence and self esteem.
