Amanda Kerr, Rapid Transformational Therapist, Hypnotherapist, Life Coach and NLP practitioner based in Chiswick, West London.
For over a decade I have helped hundreds of people make positive changes to their lives. I specialise in helping clients to eliminate fears, overcome anxiety and depression, improve confidence and self-esteem, let go of debilitating phobias and habits, become non-smokers and lose weight as well as dealing with many other issues.
My methods are fast and effective and I aim to help clients reach their desired goals in as little as 1-3 sessions.
We are all born with a ‘blank canvas’ and any limiting fears, beliefs, behaviours or feelings have been acquired or learned along the way. I will help you understand the root cause of them so that you can let them go and replace them with more positive, beneficial ones. Sounds simple? It really can be with hypnosis as we are working at the deeper, subconscious level where they were formed in the first place.
Hypnotherapy helped me enormously in my twenties when I was working in a challenging and demanding job in the City. I was stressed and anxious which impacted my confidence and self-esteem. The therapy was life changing for me at the time and so, years later, I made the incredibly rewarding decision to change career and become a hypnotherapist.
Call me now on 07867 533344 for a free 20 minute consultation to find out more. (The consultation takes place either on the phone or in person. This allows me to have a clear understanding of your presenting issue, background, and desired outcome and for me to explain how I propose to work with you. It also helps to establish rapport so that you feel comfortable before making a decision to work with me and vice versa)

Hypnosis is an altered state of awareness. It’s the same state as when we are daydreaming and ‘staring into space’. The conscious part of the mind temporarily goes into rest mode and the subconscious part is more open and receptive to suggestion, direction or change. It is in this hypnotic state where therapeutic changes can take place.
We all spend time in and out of this hypnotic/trance state but, during a hypnotherapy session, you are gently guided into trance by the therapist through the use of words and imagery. It is very relaxing and safe and you are always in control. You cannot be hypnotised against your will and cannot think, do or say anything that you don’t want to. Whilst you are deeply relaxed, the conscious mind remains awake and observant. You are able to come out of hypnosis at any time. If there was an emergency where you needed to leave the building, you could stand up and walk out of the door feeling awake and alert … but wonderfully relaxed!
Hypnotherapy is therapy in a hypnotic state. To understand hypnotherapy, it is firstly useful to understand how our minds work.
Our mind has two parts, the conscious (10%) and the subconscious (90%). The conscious mind is the thinking, analytical part, which can process up to 7 pieces of information at any time.
The subconscious mind is the creative, imaginative part and can process billions of pieces of information at any time. It is like a gigantic memory bank, storing all our memories, thoughts and life experiences from the moment we were conceived. It is the information stored in our subconscious mind that affects our behaviour and actions in different situations.
Our conscious mind is usually involved in learning new things e.g. riding a bike, driving a car or tying shoelaces, we consciously learn the processes required but, with practice and repetition, the information filters through to our subconscious mind until it takes over and we are able to do these things subconsciously without thinking about them. The same thing happens with beliefs and behaviours … if you think something e.g. ‘I am stupid’ enough times and have it reinforced through repeating the thought, or from other people’s words or actions and events, then this can become a fully embedded belief in our subconscious which then drives us on a daily basis and becomes difficult to change at a conscious level.
When thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviours are having a negative impact on our lives in some way or another, hypnotherapy can help by identifying the root cause of them, challenging and releasing them and then presenting alternative better behaviours, which can begin the process of positive change.
We have all the answers and resources we need to make changes to our lives … we are more knowledgeable and resourceful than we know. It’s my job to help you identify and find the solutions to your problems and bring them to the surface, helping you to make positive changes in your life.
1-3 sessions is usually enough to help clients achieve their desired outcomes. In some cases, however, up to six may be necessary if there are more complex issues to resolve. I can usually gauge, during the consultation, how many sessions I think you will require.

I consider myself to be very lucky to have found Amanda. The journey she took me through to improve my confidence and sense of self esteem has been life changing. Her ability to listen and to help me navigate the depths of my feelings in a safe and trusted space have been outstanding. I would highly recommend her.

Amanda Kerr is quite simply an angel, sent to earth to teach and to heal. She is warm, empathetic, caring, dedicated – she has shown me how to be in charge of my thoughts. No zoned out hypnotising in the movie sense, where you’re barking like a dog, or sleep walking, instead your brain is rested at an optimum level to get you back on track and moving forward full steam. If you’re considering hypnotherapy I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda Kerr. Thank you so much!

I just had to write to say a huge thank you for the quality time we spent together. I was in a very difficult place last year and in just 3 sessions a huge burden was lifted from me. I was particularly impressed with EFT. You are a remarkably talented therapist and one I highly recommend to everyone.

After 30 years of anxiety about driving I had 2 sessions with Amanda and she put me at my ease immediately and her methods were very effective. From being extremely stressed at the idea of driving unknown routes I am now almost excited at the prospect of a drive somewhere new. I managed a 2 hour journey on motorways with no anxiety and am looking forward to visiting places I previously was too scared to drive to. Thanks to Amanda I feel the old fears are now firmly in the past.
