Hello I am Susan McElligott

I have successfully treated cases of depression, anxiety, panic attacks, IBS, relationship problems, weight management, smoking cessation, bereavement, confidence boosting. In fact many problems of the mind, which means I can help you overcome what has been stopping you live the life you want and deserve.
The treatment, or should I say transformation is generally completed in just one session 60 -120 minutes. (Sometimes more than one visit) I am not one for seeing clients every week to talk about the same old problems. The mind is a powerful tool which needs certain ‘skills’ in order to learn how to control it in ways that support you in dealing with life’s challenges. What I provide is more ’solution focused’ and results can often be seen from the very first session. Personal one to one appointments hopefully available in July, remote appiontments available now. Call me.

Discover how you can quickly Lose Weight without Will Power. Hypnoband - The non-surgical gastric band. I am a qualified practitioner in The Hypno-Band™ System which is a long-term solution to your weight problems. This can be employed as a weight loss method instead of traditional hypnotherapy and CBT. Like any medical or therapeutic procedure, there can be no definite guarantees and even a surgeon cannot guarantee that a real actual Gastric Band will work. The virtual gastric band has been proven to be effective in aiding significant weight loss.

One or two sessions should do it. Are you overcome by stress, shortness of temper, nagging thoughts or overwhelming cravings which drive you back to smoking? Most importantly do you actually want to give up smoking? Without this mindset you will not give up smoking. This is the most important part of the process. When you have reached a point in your life where you can genuinely say “I want those cigarettes out of my life!” And can sincerely mean those words. Hypnosis can then work effectively to make you a happy non-smoker for good.

Overcome the barriers that have stopped you from living the life you want. It's all about your choices. Anxiety can be a very annoying and debilitating condition which can leave you feeling helpless and out of control. Let me help you make that connection to access your will power so you can control your own emotional state and get back in the driving seat of your own life. Each session is tailored to your needs. You will be guided into a state of mental and physical relaxation. Acceptable suggestions will then be given to the subconscious mind to change the old thought patterns to new. A session may last up to 90 minutes depending on the changes we are working on. At the end of the session you will emerge with these new thought patterns.

No matter how big or small the problem is, there is a solution. So whatever your child’s problem or challenge, whether it’s feelings of anger, sadness, anxiety, depression, confidence issues or sleep disturbances like nightmares or night terrors, I’m here to help

I believe employee wellness is essential to the success of any business today. I aim to provide a high level of professional standards and strive to make every corporate wellness service a positive experience. Employees will learn the benefits of becoming resilient and refreshed mentally. Optimum performance enhanced when employees become aware of the importance of their mental wellbeing by participating in activities involving self-care.
I am highly experienced in delivering training customised to suit the clients needs. Slide presentations are specially designed to encourage a fun and interactive form of engagement. The primary focus is on empowering employees with the tools they need for healthy mental and emotional wellbeing.The the topics above are covered and can be modified and adapted as needed.

This is an opportunity to see if we are a match for working together before paying for a session. This helps to avoid, beginning clinical work only to be referred out later or to find that my unique style/ approach is not a match for your needs. The consultations are done by phone or online video and take approximately 15-20 minutes.
Depending how social isolation measures continue I will be able to offer one on one personal consultations once regulations allow.
