HYPNOBIRTHING COURSES
I run group and one-to-one courses in Derby, Draycott and in your home! I trained as a hypnobirthing teacher with Natal Hypnotherapy in 2013 and have since gone on to develop my own material and work as an independent practitioner. This means I can deliver the content that I feel you really need and I can tailor workshops and courses to meet the needs of my clients. Hypnobirthing is not just about hypnosis for birth - it’s so much more!

“We had one to one sessions with Lucy to prepare for the birth of our baby and we cannot recommend her highly enough! Her hypnobirthing techniques and approach to helping couples to understand the process and options surrounding birth are outstanding. The sessions were always very clear and informative, but more importantly, they enabled me and my partner to feel positive, excited and confident about labour, birth and beyond. Lucy was always extremely friendly, supportive and very knowledgeable. She prepared and shared fantastic resources for us to use before and after our sessions, this helped us to practice the techniques in our own time and to use them as a basis for continuing our hypnobirthing learning journey.
I used hypnobirthing throughout the duration of my labour and as a result I had the most amazing birth experience; I was able to welcome my newborn into the world in the calm, relaxed and empowering environment that hypnobirthing enables you to create. Lucy’s role in our pregnancy and birth journey will always be treasured.”
Group workshops
Group workshops are available in Derby and Draycott (Elephant Rooms). They take place over 3 sessions, 3 hours each, and are a great way to meet other expecting parents. They are small and friendly with no more than 5 couples per workshop, meaning there is plenty of opportunity for questions and group discussion.
£255 per couple, includes mp3 tracks of the hypnosis sessions to practice at home, refreshments and course materials.
One-to-one sessions
Tailored to meet your needs, at a time that suits you, one-to-one sessions can be conducted over a series of evenings, weekdays or weekends and can take place in the comfort of your own home or via Zoom or at a Derby or Draycott therapy space (additional fee). One-to-ones are a really flexible way to get all the benefits of hypnobirthing, with the time to be able to focus on the issues that are really important to you.
£395 includes mp3 tracks of the hypnosis sessions and course materials.
