I recently had my first hypnosis session with Rebecca to help me lose weight, and I was blown away by her patience and calm demeanor. She made me feel so relaxed and at ease, which allowed me to fully open up and absorb the experience. Rebecca empowered me with her words, helping me tap into my inner strength and believe in myself. She instilled confidence in me, and I now feel like I can achieve anything I set my mind to. I'm excited to continue my journey with her guidance. Thank you, Rebecca
I am so so happy with the outcome. I got out of hypnotherapy. I was very sceptical at first but seeing the results firsthand it’s the best decision I ever made. Dr Rebecca is a very patient and lovely woman who makes you feel welcome from the minute you walk in the door. I have recommended people to her who are also seeing the same results. I will forever recommend this lovely family business and their services to everyone!
I have been smoking since I was 13, I am now 65. I was unsure if hypnosis would help me but I have tried and failed with every other type of help that is out there. After meeting Rebecca and having my first and only session I have stopped smoking, I have had no cravings or withdrawals it's amazing, I wish I had done this many years ago. If you are wanting to do this don't hesitate IT WORKS. thank you Rebecca for your wonderful help.
I have suffered from IBS-D for the last 10 years and have tried different approaches except gut-directed hypnotherapy. I came across Norwest Wellbeing in my searches as I'm local to the Hills District. Rebecca Smith is a god-send. I wish I had seen her 10 years ago! One session with her was literally what it took for me to get over this. Within 2 weeks, I was able to travel overseas for 2 months with no issues. Amazing! Thank you Bec!
Rebecca is amazing! After the first session I noticed such a positive difference with myself. I felt so comfortable throughout the process and have enjoyed my sessions so much. Highly recommend:)
Ive recently seen Rebecca for multiple sessions focusing on healing complex ptsd. She has changed my life and helped me heal and move forward. She also is just such a warm sweet person who makes you feel so comfortable throughout the whole process. Highly recommend
Meet Rebecca: Your Guide to Genuine Self-Belief
When someone sits across from me for a self-esteem session, I recognise that look – part hope, part scepticism, and completely understandable. ‘Can I really change how I see myself?’ they wonder. After guiding hundreds of people to discover their inherent worth through hypnotherapy, I can confidently say yes.
As your Clinical Hypnotherapist with expertise in self-esteem and confidence building, I know that true confidence isn’t learned from a self-help book or forced through affirmations. It emerges naturally when we address the unconscious patterns that have been undermining your self-belief for years.
“What truly moves me is witnessing that moment when someone realises their own value isn’t something to be earned. When a client tells me they’ve stopped apologising for having opinions, or they’ve pursued that promotion, or they simply feel comfortable in their own skin for the first time – that’s when I know we’ve created lasting change.” – Rebecca Smith, Clinical Hypnotherapist.
From our very first session, Rebecca seemed to understand the invisible barriers I'd been fighting my entire life. While friends would say "just be more confident," she helped me see how deeply my self-doubt was rooted in experiences I'd long forgotten. There was no forced positivity or empty affirmations - instead, we addressed the real issues beneath the surface. Six months on, I barely recognise the timid person I was before. The change hasn't just been in how I feel, but in how I live every day.

Self-Esteem Hypnotherapy Sydney: Beyond Surface-Level Solutions
What truly distinguishes my approach is the recognition that confidence isn’t something you can simply “put on” like a new outfit. I combine advanced clinical hypnotherapy techniques with an understanding of how unconscious patterns form throughout our lives to create genuine, lasting change. We work directly with your mind’s deepest beliefs about yourself – bypassing the conscious resistance that makes traditional confidence-building exercises so frustrating and short-lived.
My Commitment To You
I won’t offer empty affirmations or teach you to mask insecurity with bravado. Instead, I’ll guide you to discover the quiet, unwavering self-belief that has always existed beneath your doubts. Together, we’ll dismantle the unconscious barriers that have kept you second-guessing yourself, allowing your authentic confidence to emerge naturally and permanently.
The Science Behind Your Transformation: Why Self-Esteem Hypnotherapy Works
Picture this: You’re speaking up in a meeting, expressing your ideas without that familiar knot of anxiety. This isn’t just another confidence exercise – it’s about rewiring your relationship with yourself at its core. And science proves it works.
Beyond Surface-Level Solutions: Your Unconscious Mind's Power
“I was exhausted from forcing myself to be confident,” Claire confided during her initial consultation. “I could act the part for a while, but inside I was still waiting to be ‘found out’.” Like many of our clients, Claire hadn’t discovered that authentic confidence emerges naturally once we address the deeper patterns that maintain self-doubt.
Here's what the research reveals about your mind's remarkable capacity for transformation:
The Power of Hypnotherapy, Backed by Science
A compelling 2019 study followed individuals with chronic low self-esteem through various treatment approaches. The results: Those using hypnotherapy reported significantly higher improvements in self-worth measures (68% improvement) compared to conventional talk therapy alone (37% improvement). But what makes this approach so effective?
“After years of feeling like I wasn’t enough, hypnotherapy helped me understand the source of my self-doubt. It wasn’t about lacking confidence – it was about the unconscious beliefs I’d formed years ago. Now, I trust myself in ways I never thought possible.” James
The Neural Rewiring Effect
Recent research published in the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis demonstrated that self-esteem hypnotherapy creates measurable changes in neural pathways associated with self-perception. Think of it as naturally recalibrating your mind’s “self-worth thermostat.”
Three Ways Hypnotherapy Transforms Your Self-Perception
Modern research has uncovered exactly how self-esteem hypnotherapy creates lasting confidence:
1. Belief Restructuring Effect
Your mind relies on established thought patterns when evaluating your worth. Through guided techniques, we help you create new mental frameworks that naturally support positive self-perception – making confidence feel authentic and sustainable.
2. The Criticism-Anxiety Disconnect
Like many clients, you may have developed heightened sensitivity to perceived judgment. Clinical studies show hypnotherapy helps break this connection by addressing it at the unconscious level.
3. The Inner Authority Restoration
Recent studies reveal that participants who used self-hypnosis techniques didn’t just experience temporary confidence boosts – they developed an internal sense of validation that reduced their dependence on external approval.

Your Questions About The Journey
Some private health funds provide coverage for hypnotherapy. We recommend checking with your provider for specific details.
Unlike motivational techniques that temporarily mask insecurity, hypnotherapy works with your subconscious to create genuine changes. Think of it like addressing the root code rather than just changing the display. Where forced confidence eventually falters, hypnotherapy creates lasting transformation by aligning your unconscious beliefs with your conscious desires. Our clients often say, "I'm not pretending anymore - feeling worthy just comes naturally now."
Every journey is unique, but most clients experience meaningful shifts within 2-5 sessions. Like David, who noticed changes after his first session: "I stopped questioning my decisions constantly, and that feeling of being an imposter just... faded." We'll assess your specific challenges during your first consultation and create a personalised plan for your confidence development.
This is a common concern, but rest assured that hypnotherapy doesn't require any special talent - just your willingness to participate. Everyone experiences hypnosis differently, but the relaxed, focused state we work with is something everyone naturally enters multiple times daily (like when you're absorbed in a good book or driving on autopilot). Rebecca tailors each session to your unique thought patterns and learning style. Even clients who were initially skeptical have found the process surprisingly effective for building genuine confidence.
Many clients notice shifts after their very first session - reduced self-criticism, more comfort speaking up, or simply feeling more at ease in social situations. Grace's experience is typical: "The day after my first session, I caught myself about to apologise unnecessarily and just... stopped. It wasn't forced - I just naturally felt worthy of taking up space." Your transformation will develop progressively, creating a sustainable new relationship with yourself.
At Norwest Wellbeing, Rebecca combines clinical hypnotherapy with psychotherapy to address persistent self-doubt and create lasting transformation. As an experienced healthcare professional, Rebecca understands that developing genuine confidence requires more than just positive thinking and affirmations. Her approach works by addressing the underlying psychological patterns that influence your self-perception and interactions with others. During your personalised sessions, she'll help you develop new thought patterns and responses that support your journey to authentic self-worth. If you'd like to learn more about how hypnotherapy can enhance your confidence and self-esteem, we invite you to book a complimentary 15-minute consultation with Rebecca.
