Hypnotherapy in English · Gampel · Valais · Online
Facing an operation, ongoing pain or a cancer diagnosis is hard enough. Doing it in a language that isn't your own – with consultations, forms and test results in German or French – can make it feel even more overwhelming. I support you in English, alongside your medical care, so you can go through what lies ahead with more calm and trust.
For adults who are preparing for a medical procedure, living with pain, or going through cancer treatment – before, during or after.
I have particular experience supporting women with gynaecological cancers and breast cancer, and with the chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery that come with them.
Hypnotherapy does not cure illness. What it can do is change how you experience what is happening. Research shows that hypnosis can reduce anxiety around medical procedures and help with symptoms such as nausea, pain and fatigue – alongside medical treatment.
Go into your operation feeling prepared rather than afraid. We create a calm inner place and prepare your body mindfully for what is coming – and, afterwards, support you as you recover.
Pain is real, and so is the way stress amplifies it. Together we work on letting tension go, finding relief you can access yourself, and feeling less at the mercy of your pain.
From diagnosis through chemotherapy and radiotherapy to life after treatment. You learn an inner anchor you can use anywhere – during an infusion, lying still on the radiotherapy table, or in the waiting room before a scan.
Many women find internal radiotherapy much harder than external treatment. It is intimate, you have to lie still for a long time, and the feeling of being at the mercy of it all can be overwhelming. This is where I work with particular care. You set the pace. We use images of protection and dignity, and a pleasant inner distance – so that one part of you can stay calm and cooperate, while another part is allowed to rest in your safe place.
In cellular hypnosis, you turn your attention all the way inwards – down to the level where your body does its smallest, most detailed work. We begin where you feel good: in your “comfort cells”. Many people experience this place as a colour, a light, warmth or movement. It becomes your inner reference point – this is what calm feels like in your body.
From there, we travel gently to the place that needs attention right now – for example before an operation, or during chemotherapy or radiotherapy. You notice what is there and give your body what it needs from you in that moment: calm, trust, appreciation. The treatment itself can take on a new image, too: chemotherapy as a specialist that works with precision; radiotherapy as calm, millimetre-precise light.
Many clients then no longer experience their treatment as something being done to them, but as something they go through together with their body.
Cellular hypnosis is a supportive method. It does not replace medical treatment and makes no promise of healing.
20 minutes, by phone or Zoom. We talk about where you are right now and whether hypnotherapy is a good fit.
Up to 3 hours, just for you. We work on what weighs on you most and create your inner place of calm and your anchor.
Depending on your treatment plan, we put together a package that suits you – for example before each new phase of treatment.
You receive exercises you can use on your own: on the way to treatment, in the waiting room, or in the evening before you fall asleep.
Ideally, get in touch before treatment begins. But it is never too late – in the middle of treatment or afterwards.
You are welcome at my practice in Gampel, near Visp. If treatment leaves you exhausted, an online session via Zoom from home can be a gentle alternative – available anywhere in Switzerland.
