Our Story
Our journey into clinical hypnotherapy began over a decade ago, but our story together started long before that. As partners in life and business, we’ve built Norwest Wellbeing into Sydney’s premier hypnotherapy clinic and a family that includes our two teenage boys, who keep us grounded and remind us daily of what matters most.
What started as a shared passion for helping others became one of Sydney’s busiest hypnotherapy practices. Working side by side at our Norwest clinic, we’ve discovered that our different approaches complement each other perfectly—Paul’s systematic, solution-focused style for anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and addiction pairs naturally with Rebecca’s nurturing, transformative approach to women’s health, IBS, and weight management.
Our commitment to hypnotherapy extends beyond our clinical practice. We’re passionate about sharing our knowledge and expertise with others. We don’t just practice hypnotherapy; we live it and continually witness its transformative power in our lives and clients’ experiences.
Every night, when our boys were little, we’d tell them bedtime stories. We noticed how these calm, guided imagination moments would help them drift into a peaceful sleep, and they seemed more relaxed and happier throughout the day. It reminded us of the profound impact storytelling, combined with relaxation, can have on the mind. This observation and our years of clinical experience have deeply informed our approach at Norwest Wellbeing.
Through our own daily practice of meditation and self-hypnosis, we’ve experienced firsthand how these techniques can transform everyday challenges into opportunities for growth. Whether managing the busy family life schedule, navigating teenage parenting, or running our thriving practice, these tools have been our anchor.
Norwest Wellbeing was built from our desire to share these powerful techniques with people throughout Sydney. We believe that everyone deserves access to the calming, transformative effects of hypnotherapy, whether they’re struggling with anxiety, wanting to quit smoking, or seeking a moment of peace in their busy lives.
Like our family, our practice is built on trust, understanding, and genuine care for others. When we’re not in our Norwest clinic or teaching, you might find us enjoying Sydney’s beautiful outdoors with our boys or sharing ideas about our latest approaches over coffee.
The sessions we create for our clients come from our hearts, clinical experience, and family’s journey with meditation and self-hypnosis. Each session carries the warmth of our family, the effectiveness of clinical hypnotherapy, and our genuine desire to help others find peace and personal growth.
We believe that true wellbeing comes from a balance of mind, body, and spirit—a philosophy we live by at home, share with our clients, and now, through Norwest Wellbeing, we can share with you when you visit our clinic in Norwest.
Join us on this journey of healing and transformation. Let us be the soothing voice that guides you to relaxation, the supportive presence in your personal growth, and the helping hand on your path to wellness.
It would be our privilege to welcome you to the Norwest Wellbeing family.
