About Inas Hassan, Certified Hypnotherapist

Mrs Inas Hassan is a certified hypnotherapist who combines professional business experience with a real understanding of human behaviour. She holds an MBA from Paris-Dauphine University and a BA in Translation from the University of Brussels, trained at the Milton Erickson Institute of Belgium and is certified in smoking cessation by the Sussex Hypnotherapy Centre in the UK. She is also trained in PTR (Psychothérapie du trauma associative), an approach to working with trauma. Her particular areas of focus are burnout and trauma, stopping smoking, weight and overeating, anxiety and sleep.

Inas Hassan’s style leaves rigid scripts and direct commands behind. She uses conversational hypnosis, a natural, solution-focused dialogue that respects your autonomy. Because she works fluently in Arabic and French as well as English, she can pick up the cultural and emotional detail that makes therapeutic dialogue work. You set the pace, and nothing is done without your agreement. She works with adults only.

Conversational Hypnosis: Her Style

Many people picture hypnosis as a stage act with commands and tricks. Mrs Hassan’s style is different. She leaves rigid scripts and direct commands behind and uses conversational hypnosis, a natural, solution-focused dialogue that respects your autonomy. You talk, you are guided, and you are always free to speak or to stop. Nothing is done without your agreement.

Because she works fluently in Arabic and French as well as English, she can pick up the cultural and emotional detail that makes the conversation work. You set the pace. She works with adults only.

Who Inas Hassan Helps

Mrs Hassan sees adults who want to change something that willpower alone has not changed. Common reasons people come are:

• Stress and burnout, including exhaustion that lingers after a toxic workplace or a hard experience.
• Anxiety, including constant worry, tension and feeling on edge.
• Sleep problems, such as trouble falling or staying asleep.
• Smoking, when you want to stop and need extra support.
• Weight and overeating, working on the emotional side of how you view food and your body, without strict dieting.
• The effects of trauma, alongside appropriate talking therapy and medical care.

You do not need a referral, and you do not need to have tried hypnotherapy before. If you are unsure whether it is right for you, your free 20-minute consultation is the place to ask.

Is Hypnotherapy Right for You?

Hypnotherapy can suit people who want to change something that willpower alone has not changed. It works best when you want to take part, and when your goal is clear enough to describe, such as sleeping better, feeling calmer, stopping smoking or easing the effects of stress. It is not a quick fix or a cure, and results vary from person to person.

If you are unsure, your free 20-minute consultation is the place to ask. We will tell you honestly if something else would suit you better.

What Is Hypnotherapy? An Online Hypnotherapist Explains

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help you reach a calm, absorbed state in which you are more open to helpful ideas and new ways of responding. It is not sleep, and it is not mind control. You stay aware of what is happening, you can speak, and you can stop at any time. Our page on hypnotherapy explains the approach in more detail, and the NHS describes talking therapies more widely.

A certified hypnotherapist such as Inas Hassan sees hypnotherapy as practical support. Research on its effects varies by problem, and results differ from person to person, so Mrs Hassan will be honest with you about what is and is not likely to help. It works alongside, not instead of, medical or psychological care where you need it.

Before Your Session: How to Prepare

There is nothing special to prepare, but a few small things help. Eat lightly beforehand, wear comfortable clothes and try not to arrive in a rush. Think about what you would like to change, and what you have already tried. If you have a health condition, please tell us when you book. For an online session, the picture below shows how to set up your space at home.

What Happens in a Hypnotherapy Session

Hypnotherapy sessions at Feeling To Healing last 70 minutes. Most sessions follow the same calm sequence:

1. Talk. You explain what you want to change and what you have already tried.
2. Relax. You are guided into a calm, focused state, with your eyes usually closed.
3. Suggestions. Helpful ideas, images and new responses are introduced gently, based on your goals.
4. Return. You come back to full alertness, feeling rested and clear.
5. Practise. You are given a short routine to use at home, which helps the change last.

Many people notice benefits within a few sessions, though the number you need depends on the problem and on you. Mrs Hassan reviews progress with you as you go.

After a Session

Most people feel rested and clear when they come back to full alertness. You are given a short routine to use at home, which helps the change last, so a little practice between sessions is part of the process. If you feel tired, give yourself a quiet few minutes before returning to your day.

Stress and Burnout

Burnout is the exhaustion that lingers after a long period of pressure, a toxic workplace or a hard experience. Hypnotherapy teaches deep relaxation, which helps your body and mind recover, and gives you a way to switch off that you can use again and again.

Anxiety and Sleep

Constant worry, tension and feeling on edge can keep you awake at night, and poor sleep makes worry worse. Calming techniques and a wind-down routine can ease both. If your sleep problems are long-lasting, it is also worth speaking to your GP.

Stopping Smoking and Weight

Mrs Hassan holds a smoking cessation certification from the Sussex Hypnotherapy Centre in the UK. If you want to stop smoking, hypnotherapy can support your decision. For weight and overeating, the work focuses on habits and on the emotional side of how you view food and your body, without strict dieting.

Trauma: What Hypnotherapy Can and Cannot Do

Mrs Hassan is also trained in PTR (Psychothérapie du trauma associative), an approach to working with trauma. Hypnotherapy can help with calm and safety, but it is not a replacement for trauma therapy or medical care. If you are living with the effects of trauma, we can talk about what combination of support would be right for you.

• Trauma: hypnotherapy can help with calm and safety, but it is not a replacement for trauma therapy. See counselling for trauma.

Why Language Matters in Therapy

The words you use for your feelings are usually the words you learned first. When you can speak in the language you think and feel in, it is easier to say what you really mean and to feel understood. That is why Mrs Hassan offers sessions in French, English and Arabic, and moves between them with you if that is helpful.

Hypnotherapy in French, Hypnotherapy in Arabic and in English

Feeling safe and understood is easier when you can speak in the language you think and feel in. Mrs Hassan offers hypnotherapy in French, hypnotherapy in Arabic and hypnotherapy in English, and she moves between them with you if that is helpful. Hypnotherapy in French and hypnotherapy in Arabic are the only services we offer in those languages. All our other sessions are in English. Dr Carlo Demarco also offers hypnotherapy, and you can read about Dr Demarco on his page.

How Many Sessions Will You Need?

It depends on the problem and on you. Many people notice benefits within a few sessions. In your first session, Mrs Hassan gives you an honest idea of what to expect, and you review your progress together as you go. A hypnotherapy session lasts 70 minutes, so there is time to talk, to relax and to come back gently.
