At Minimise Misophonia Hypnotherapy, the mission is to provide a supportive and effective environment where hypnotherapy is an approachable and nurturing method for treating individuals with Misophonia and Obsessive-Compulsive Conditions.

During and after the COVID-19 lockdowns, I observed an increase in clients seeking relief from Obsessive-Compulsive behaviors, including Misophonia. The lockdown period seemed to exacerbate Misophonia, making its debilitating and frustrating presence more prominent. Clients with Misophonia often reported feeling powerless and overwhelmed by their triggers, similar to those who have experienced bullying. In many ways, Misophonia acts as a bully in their lives. In response, I developed and refined the Minimise Misophonia Method (MMM).

Clients using the MMM have reported becoming increasingly indifferent to what once seemed unbearably aggravating and fixating.

Today, I specialize in using my hypnotherapy skills to help clients with Misophonia.

Auditory perception—how we interpret what we hear—is a fascinating area to me. It is both exciting and rewarding to hear that clients working through the Minimise Misophonia Method are regaining control over their reactions to sound. They are changing how they process and use auditory stimuli, leading to significant improvements in their daily lives.
