Fiyaz Mughal, MNCH (Reg.)

Overview

You and your health matters! It really is simple as that. I am a practitioner who passionately believes in the power of the mind in helping people to live better lives with better outcomes. I therefore work through my practice in Central London and online providing Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy relief and services to people with anxiety conditions and with needs such as overcoming a fear of flying, fears around speech giving, phobias regarding travelling on the Underground, buses and trains and lastly, fears around syringes and getting injections.

Your experiences and your desires for a better and more heathier future deserve a therapist who understands the basic neuroscience of the brain and who has a wealth of experience of working with clients on anxiety conditions.

I am a qualified Counsellor and Hypnotherapist with a specialism in Hypno-CBT. I integrate personal centred counselling with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and hypnotherapy tools and I am a great believer in giving people quality psycho-educational materials that can empower them to make choices for their future.

As someone who has worked in mental health services in my youth, I have worked with communities for over 25 years and have a passion for people and their well-being. I have specialised in anxiety conditions such as agoraphobia, social phobias, panic disorder, health anxiety, Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I also work with a range of OCD conditions that include conditions such as R-OCD, P- OCD, Harm OCD, Identity OCD etc.

I also work on relaxation techniques, positive visualisations and facilitating new ways of understanding, thinking about, managing and ultimately, reducing anxiety for people who have suffered repeated bouts of anxiety in their lives. This may have taken the form of high stress reactions, muscular tensions, panic attacks, phobias causing low moods, ruminations about fearful thoughts and recurring catastrophic thoughts that seem to carry on. It is also important to add that phobias may be attached to certain situations such as flying, travelling in enclosed spaces, health related fears, thoughts related to shame and even being scared of going into the ‘outside world’ (agoraphobia).

I have listed some of the feedback from clients that I have worked with below and I further specialise in working with people who have a fear of flying, a fear of giving speeches, fears around injections and needles and a fear of travelling on public transport.

Anxiety can take many forms, such as a constant worry, fear of something catastrophic taking place as a recurrent thought and ongoing fears about health, social engagement or even travelling. With the recent Covid-19 pandemic, such global events have further heightened stress reactions in our body. However, anxiety does not have to define you. You can define who and what you are, and what you want to achieve and be in life.

You can therefore manage and understand your anxiety through counselling and hypnotherapy (Hypno-CBT) support and assistance through Counselling4Anxiety. There is a way ahead!
