Simon Taylor · Hypnotherapist, NLP Master Practitioner & Coach
When knowing why
isn't enough.
I work with adults who are worn out by Anxiety, Overthinking, low Confidence and habits they can't shift. You probably already understand a lot about why you feel the way you do.
What we'll work on is the moment it happens, and what you do next.
Hypnotherapy, NLP, Coaching and practical therapy tools, chosen for you rather than one method for everybody.
Online sessions across the UK.

If this sounds familiar
You can explain it perfectly.
It still keeps happening.
You've probably spent a long time trying to work out why you feel the way you do. You know the triggers. You can see the pattern coming. Some people I work with could write the textbook on their own problem.
And then it happens again. The racing thoughts at three in the morning. Saying yes when you meant no. Snapping at someone you love, then lying awake replaying it. Promising yourself that Monday will be different.
That isn't a lack of willpower, and it doesn't mean you're broken. Usually the pattern is simply running faster than the insight. That's the part I want to help you change.
What People Come To Me With

The approach
One person.
More than one way in.
I call the way I work Blended Therapeutic Change, or the BTC Method™. It isn't a new therapy. It's a practical way of choosing the right tools for the person in front of me, instead of fitting everyone into the one method I happen to like best.
- 01
Hypnotherapy
For the reactions that fire before you've had a chance to think. We work calmly and directly on the automatic response itself.
- 02
NLP
How you picture, describe and rehearse a problem changes how it feels. We work on that internal script, not just the conversation about it.
- 03
CBT-informed tools
Simple, practical ways to catch a thought, test it, and choose a more useful response while it's happening.
- 04
Coaching
Clear goals, small actions and an honest review. This is the part that turns a good session into a different week.
I've also trained in Gestalt, DBT and EMDR, and I draw on that training where it fits. Whatever we use, I'll explain why before we use it. Everyone is different, so I won't promise you a particular result. I will promise to be honest about what I think can help.
Work with Simon
Start with a conversation.
Then choose what fits.
Everyone starts with a Free Consultation. You tell me what's going on, I tell you honestly whether I can help and which option I'd suggest. Prices are fixed and agreed before we begin. No pressure, no hard sell.

Client experiences
“I’ve seen several Therapists for different reasons but every time I leave one I never feel my issues are truly resolved. Then I met Simon and that changed instantly. After just one session my Anxiety melted away. My Confidence and belief in myself returned and I have been able to do things that have actually changed my life.”
“Worth every penny in my opinion because he’s given me my life back and you cannot put a price on that.”
“This has been the only treatment that has genuinely changed the way my brain works.”
“I have struggled with Self Esteem and Self Worth for as long as I can remember, and I can honestly say that I now feel like a new, stronger more confident version of myself since working with Simon.”
“I was stuck in a hole with life and work and everything really, it came out in feeling angry and deflated. I decided to work with Simon after a free trial as he was direct, straight talking but like a gentle big brother!”

Meet Simon
I take this work seriously.
And I'll be straight with you.
My career has spanned different industries, predominantly financial services and sales. Some roles were entry level, some were senior management. I know what pressure looks like from the inside, and how long people can keep going before they finally ask for help.
I trained in Hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT, DBT, Gestalt, EMDR, EFT, TFT, Psychology and Life Coaching, and hold a CMI Level 7 in Strategic Management and Leadership: sixteen Diplomas and Certifications in all, nine of them with Distinction. I wrote The Little Book of Big Changes, and I created the BTC Method™ because no single approach works for everybody.
Clients tend to describe me as direct. One called me "a gentle big brother", which I'll happily take. I don't have all the answers and I won't pretend to. What I do have is a lot of care for the people who trust me with their story, and that comes from my faith as much as my training.

Faith & purpose
I'm a Christian.
And I'm open about it.
My faith in God shapes the way I live, the way I treat people and the work I do. I believe in grace. I believe in forgiveness. I believe people can take responsibility for their lives and genuinely change, because I've watched it happen again and again.
You don't need to share my faith to work with me. Where it's appropriate, and where you'd welcome it, I'm happy to bring prayer and scripture in alongside the practical tools. Where you'd rather not, we simply don't.
For Christian men, there's also a 12-week course, separate from my one-to-one work. And you'd be welcome to join me at church in Rossington on a Sunday.
Faith & ChurchCome unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
The book
The Little Book of Big Changes
The right words for real life, and how to use them.
Short, practical and written for people who want to change something this week, not someday. It's the kind of book you keep in a bag rather than on a shelf.

For the hours between sessions.
Most change doesn't happen in a therapy room. It happens on a Tuesday afternoon when the old pattern turns up and nobody's watching. The Inner Compass is the app I'm building for those moments, and it's nearly ready.
Guided check-ins, structured journeys, my hypnosis audio and one small action to try, then a clear look back at what actually helped. It's a companion to the work, not a replacement for it.
Questions people ask me
If you've read this far, something is probably ready to change.
My diary is full at the moment, so Free Consultations are running as a waiting list for my next intake of clients. Tell me what's going on and I'll be in touch personally as soon as a space opens. If I'm not the right person for you, I'll say so.
