4 things people come to the Headtonic cabin for

Every session starts with a free 15-minute call, so you can hear my voice and ask anything before you commit.

Stop smoking or vaping

One session, plus a recording to keep. Most people leave having already stopped.

Anxiety & stress

Four sessions to reframe the worry loop and give you something to do when it starts.

Eating & weight

Not a diet. Work on why the hand reaches for it, so the reaching quietly stops.

A proper facial, then twenty minutes of hypnosis under a blanket. Brides, mostly.

Meet Sharon, Your Guide to Lasting Change.

I trained as a beauty therapist in 1990 and spent decades practising massage and aromatherapy, work that taught me that most people arrive carrying something they haven't said out loud yet. Volunteering with the Samaritans led me towards counselling, and lockdown finally gave me the time to train properly in hypnotherapy.

Many people prefer hypnotherapy to traditional talking therapies because change can occur more quickly. Both parts of your mind, your rational/logical side and your emotional side, are used in this change.

To reassure:

There is nothing to fear during a hypnotherapy session; you are always in control, and I can't make you do or say anything you wouldn't normally do.

More about me

Kind words from my clients…

Sharon is compassionate and caring. She made me feel at ease during my smoking cessation treatment. Afterwards, I felt strong and clear about my decision to quit. The cravings have been manageable, and I haven’t smoked since. I highly recommend Sharon!

I had a successful hypnotherapy session at HeadTonic with Sharon, who was an excellent practitioner. I'm amazed at how quickly I came off cigarettes. She provided homework and audio for after the session. I've noticed a shift in my cravings versus habitual urges, and I'm thrilled with the results. I highly recommend Sharon!

Alix
I visited Sharon at Headtonic for motivation to make healthier eating choices and stop snacking on junk. I’m feeling fantastic and have joined a gym, making positive changes. After a relaxing facial in a heated recliner, I left with glowing skin and a positive mindset. I highly recommend Sharon at Headtonic for any changes you want to make!
