Less survival. More living
A structured 10-session hypnotherapy and wellbeing
programme for reflective adults who are functioning, but not really flourishing
— and who are ready to build a sustainable platform for wellbeing.
PERMA Pathways combines Solution Focused Hypnotherapy,
positive psychology, self-hypnosis, structured workbooks, hypnosis MP3s, and
practical between-session exercises.
It is designed to help you move from coping with recurring
patterns to consciously building a life with more steadiness, agency, meaning,
and choice.
Online 1:1 sessions
10 sessions
Usually completed over 12–18 weeks
You may be capable, responsible, and outwardly functioning —
while still knowing that life does not feel as steady, spacious, or fulfilling
as you want it to feel.
Perhaps you are getting things done, meeting deadlines,
supporting others, and keeping life moving.
But inside, something feels different.
You may recognise yourself in this:
PERMA Pathways begins here: with the honest recognition that
your wellbeing platform may need strengthening.
A slow out-breath can help.
Writing things down can help.
Taking a walk can help.
Going to bed earlier can help.
Asking, “What is the next useful thing I can influence?” can help.
These things matter.
They can interrupt overwhelm. They can create space. They
can help you move from reaction toward response.
But if the same patterns keep returning, you may need more
than isolated techniques.
You may need a guided structure that helps you understand
what keeps pulling you back, practise new responses, and build a wellbeing
platform that supports your life over time.
A tip may help you get through the next ten minutes.
A structure helps you ask:
What keeps bringing me back to this place — and what can
I build instead?
PERMA Pathways is a 10-session, one-to-one hypnotherapy and
wellbeing programme.
It brings together:
The aim is not to give you a temporary lift.
Instead, PERMA Pathways helps you build the first working version
of your own wellbeing platform — something you can keep using, adapting, and
strengthening long after the programme ends.
This is not about becoming a different person.
It is about helping more of your life work with you.
Structured. Reflective. Practical. Personal
PERMA Pathways is not generic hypnotherapy.
Nor is it endless talking, self-help overload, or a quick fix.
Instead it is a structured, content-rich, guided process for people
who want to understand their patterns, practise new responses, and build
sustainable wellbeing.
The programme has a clear 10-session pathway, with each
stage building on the last.
You are not simply receiving therapy. You are actively
participating in your own development.
The ideas are there to be used in real life: in your habits,
choices, relationships, thinking, recovery, goals, and direction.
The programme contains depth, but you are not expected to
absorb everything at once. You take what is most useful now and return to other
parts later.
Trance is used as a practical tool to support calmer,
clearer, more resourceful states. You also learn self-hypnosis so the work can
continue beyond the sessions.
Wellbeing is more than feeling better
PERMA Pathways is based around the idea that wellbeing is a
platform from which you live.
The PERMA model gives us a practical way to explore that
platform. In this programme, we also include Health as an essential
foundation of sustainable wellbeing.
More calm, hope, appreciation, steadiness, and genuine
enjoyment in daily life. This does not mean pretending everything is positive. It
means learning how to create emotional conditions that help you respond with
more flexibility and choice.
More presence, focus, absorption, and flow.
This includes spending less time trapped in anxious loops,
overthinking, or distraction — and more time engaged with the life in front of
you.
More connection, clearer communication, healthier
boundaries, and greater presence with the people who matter. This includes your
relationship with others and your relationship with yourself.
A stronger connection with what matters to you.
This helps you step back from autopilot and begin aligning
your choices with your values, direction, and sense of purpose.
Realistic progress, confidence, follow-through, and evidence
that your actions matter.
This is not about chasing achievement for its own sake. It
is about choosing goals that strengthen your wellbeing.
Sleep, recovery, energy, movement, regulation, and the
physical foundations of wellbeing.
Without health and recovery, even good intentions can become
harder to sustain.
PERMA Pathways uses these areas to help you build a
balanced, personal wellbeing platform — not a perfect life, but a stronger
foundation for living.
Ten sessions. A clear pathway. Space to integrate.
PERMA Pathways usually unfolds over 12–18 weeks.
The early sessions are often weekly, helping to build
understanding, regulation, and momentum. Later sessions may move to a
fortnightly rhythm, giving you more time to reflect, practise, and integrate
the work.
Each session usually includes:
The programme is structured, but it is not rigid. It is
paced around your life, your capacity, and what is most useful as the work
develops.
Sessions 1–2: Orientation, understanding, and regulation
Building the foundations: how your system responds under pressure, what helps
you regulate, and how change begins.
Sessions 3–4: Agency, thinking patterns, and useful
responses
Exploring how you move from reaction toward response, and how to work with
thoughts, beliefs, and behaviour more flexibly.
Sessions 5–6: Self-hypnosis, beliefs, values, and
identity
Developing tools for deeper integration and exploring what supports a more
aligned way of living.
Sessions 7–8: PERMA(H), goals, and future direction
Building your personal wellbeing platform and identifying goals that strengthen
rather than drain you.
Sessions 9–10: Integration, review, and next steps
Consolidating the work, reviewing progress, and clarifying how you will
continue developing your wellbeing platform beyond the programme.
PERMA Pathways includes more than the live sessions
You receive a structured programme designed to support
reflection, practice, and integration between sessions.
Included:
The written material is deliberately substantial.
That does not mean you have to complete everything
perfectly. It means you have a rich set of resources to work with during the
programme and return to afterwards.
The aim is not to overwhelm you with content.
The aim is to give you a pathway with enough depth to
support real, sustainable development.
This programme may be right for you if…
PERMA Pathways is designed for reflective adults who are
functioning reasonably well, but know they are not flourishing.
It may be a good fit if:
You do not need to feel fully confident before you begin.
There simply needs to be enough interest and
capacity to engage.
The right support at the wrong time can still be the
wrong support.
PERMA Pathways is not for everyone at every stage.
A structured, content-rich programme may not be the best
first step if life currently feels too unstable or overwhelming.
It may not be right for you at this time if:
That is not a failure
It is good pacing
Sometimes the first task is stabilisation: sleep, safety,
regulation, support, and a little more breathing room.
Structured wellbeing development can come later.
The fee for PERMA Pathways is:
£999 paid in full
Staged payment options may be available at a slightly higher
total fee.
This includes:
I work with a small number of PERMA Pathways clients each
year so the programme can be properly paced, personalised, and integrated.
The first step is not simply booking a block of sessions.
The first step is a suitability conversation.
That conversation is not about persuading you. It is about
discerning fit.
We will consider:
Sometimes the answer will be yes.
Sometimes the answer will be not yet.
Both are useful.
