For women at a turning point
Feeling stuck? Find the direction you already know is there
Accomplished on the outside, quietly stuck on the inside. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone, and you're not too late.

Many of my clients are women in their forties and fifties who feel stuck, flat or lost at a turning point: children leaving, a career that no longer fits, a loss, or a long relationship changing. Through hypnotherapy and coaching I help them recognise the self-limiting patterns keeping them in place and move towards what they want next.
Does this sound familiar?
- Using words like stuck, flat, foggy or going through the motions
- A career you're good at that no longer means much
- Children grown or leaving, and wondering who you are now
- Grief, a parent's illness or a relationship changing
- Knowing there's something you want, but not letting yourself have it
How I can help
You're not in crisis, and that's part of the problem. You're functioning, often high-functioning, so no one can tell anything is wrong. You may have tried coaching, journalling, a course or talking it through with friends, and still feel stuck.
The patterns keeping you in place usually sit outside everyday awareness. Hypnotherapy reaches them directly. We combine it with coaching, so you leave with both a clear direction and a mind that's willing to go there. Many women choose the six-session Inner Direction Programme: naming what's really going on, unhooking the old patterns, then committing to a direction and a plan for what comes next.
What can change
Clarity about what you want next
Permission to want it
Energy and optimism coming back
Taking the first real steps, and keeping going
I entered into the hypnotherapy personal development programme with Ruth in the hope that I would at least see light at the end of the tunnel with my issues. I have now done so much better than I ever could have anticipated. I was amazed how much my childhood had played a big part in the way I was making decisions every day. I now feel more confident and in control.

Questions people ask
Is this a midlife crisis?
Usually not. Feeling stuck at a turning point is extremely common and often a sign you're ready for something new. Hypnotherapy can help you work out what that is and free you to move towards it.
What is the Inner Direction Programme?
It's a six-session hypnotherapy and coaching programme (£570) for people at a turning point. Sessions one and two name what's really going on, three and four release the self-limiting patterns, and five and six build a clear direction and a plan for the months ahead.
Is this only for women?
No. Many of my clients at a turning point are women in their 40s and 50s, but I work with anyone who feels stuck and ready for change.
