Ruth Loughton · DIP.cert.PHH.MAPA
Hello, I'm Ruth
Advanced hypnotherapist and coach, and someone who knows what it is to feel stuck.

I'm Ruth Loughton (DIP.cert.PHH.MAPA), an advanced hypnotherapist and coach based in Forest Row, East Sussex. I have over 35 years' experience in health and healing, trained in hypnotherapy with Andrew Parr, and work with clients in person and online.
My story
Like many people, I spent years trying personal development techniques from books and the internet. Some helped for a while, but I always found myself slipping back into old habits. The changes never seemed to last.
The turning point was discovering hypnosis. I started with the books and recordings, then booked a series of one-to-one sessions, and that's when real, lasting change began. My confidence grew and I found myself meeting challenges in a different, more effective way. I found the process so powerful that I trained as a hypnotherapist and coach myself, with Andrew Parr.
How I work
I bring far more than technique. I bring presence, compassion and an intuitive understanding of what each person truly needs. It's not about reading from a script or offering quick fixes. It's about tuning into your unique emotional landscape and gently guiding you towards meaningful, lasting change.
Through psychological insight, long experience and a calm, reassuring energy, I create a safe and supportive space where change feels not just possible, but natural.
I also bring my own life experience, full of highs and lows, losses and turning points, much like yours. It helps me understand what you're going through, and I believe it makes me better at helping you through it.
