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.
