“People do not come into therapy to change their past but their future”
🌿 Welcome to Mind Garden Hypnotherapy!
As we gather up more energy and springs starts to gently unfurl, it's the perfect time to embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation.
I'm Jessica, a Clinical Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist. I am also a Senior Lecturer with CPHT Leeds and a level 5 supervisor and business mentor.
I am based in the Yorkshire town of Pudsey, Leeds.
Mental wellbeing is at the forefront of everything I do. I believe that we all have great lives to live but many of us are just surviving day to day, trying to get by instead of really living our best lives. Surviving, not thriving.
I provide a safe, positive space, free from judgement, to work through what you need and overcome the difficulties in your life. I'm located in a beautiful, old converted church that holds a serenity and calmness to address your needs.
So What's Mind Garden all about?
At Mind Garden, we believe in the power of the mind to heal and flourish. By guiding my clients to plant the seeds of positive change, we help them bloom again and find greater peace, purpose, and fulfilment in their lives.
My approach to hypnotherapy is inspired by the natural process of growth and transformation that we see in a garden. We believe that within each of us is a seed waiting to be planted - a desire for change or a dream that's been buried deep. By tapping into the power of the subconscious mind, we can help awaken these seeds and nurture their growth.
Positive thoughts, actions and interactions makes sure our bushes are well trimmed. If yours is a little out of control and you don't know where to start trimming it back, I can help. Whether you're struggling with the weeds of anxiety, depression, or simply feeling stuck in life, Mind Garden is here to guide you towards a bloomin' good future.

I'm Jessica - I'm a qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist. I'm a Senior Lecturer with CPHT Leeds , teaching the next budding hypnotherapists and I'm a level 5 supervisor and business mentor, helping other hypnotherapists flourish in their own businesses.
I have wealth of knowledge and experience to help you live your best life again.
My career begun when I studied Law at university and then onto conveyancing. I had a change of direction and went on to work with two major supermarket chains within their head office in various roles including product development and operations. This is where I confirmed that my real passion was people. I've always had an interest in psychology and why we do the things we do. After a few of my own struggles (which in hindsight may have been my undiagnosed ADHD for the most part ) I looked more into mental health. After time off having my 2 children I studied with the prestigious hypnotherapy school CPHT Leeds and the rest, they say, is history. I now lecture with the school and also supervise other hypnotherapists. The job changed me life and it's given me the freedom to help others and enhanced my own journey,
With my corporate background, young family life and neurodiversity I can empathise about the daily juggle and mental load which I know a lot of clients struggle with. I have also had a later in life ADHD diagnosis which has opened my eyes to how hypnotherapy can help with neurodiversity too and is something I'm really passionate about with my client and also educating others around.
I'm really passionate about what I do and treat all my clients as individuals. I create a safe place, to hold space, in a non judgmental, open environment. I see all types of clients, if you have a disability or are neurodivergent let me know, so we can make sure you're getting the best treatment in a way that works for you. My office and building are wheelchair friendly too.
I've always been empathic and wanted to help people in a meaningful way. I picked hypnotherapy as I've always been interested in Psychology and how the mind works. After an amazing experience myself with hypnotherapy, I knew that it was the path for me. The subconscious is a vast undiscovered part of our brain that we have access to during hypnotherapy sessions and that's something that is truly unique. With 97% of everything we do locked in the subconscious it's a great thing to be able to access. By using the latest techniques, backed by neuroscience, I feel really passionate about helping people go from surviving, to thriving again. Together we can reach your goals in a manageable way that's personable to you.
I love to learn and i'm always adding to my wellbeing toolbox, I'm also a qualified Reiki master. I like to keep up to date with the latest changes in neuroscience and other relevant CPD's so you'll always get the most up to date information and a drawing or two. I'm proud to be a senior lecturer for CPHT Leeds where I graduated from. It's amazing to come full circle and the student becoming the master and fostering the next set of padawans (awful star wars reference) of amazing hypnotherapists. If you're interested in doing what I do, drop me a message.
I'm fully insured, DBS checked and a proud member of the AFSFH, National Council for Hypnotherapy, The Complimentary & Natural Healthcare Council and The National Board of Modern Psychotherapy. I conduct my sessions at my clinic in Pudsey, Leeds. I also happy to work with children 8+.
