Alison Fernandes Therapy

Welcome to my therapy practice. Whether you’re new to therapy or seeking it as your trusted tool for personal growth, I provide a range of therapy services—including Hypnotherapy, BWRT®, EMDR, Rewind, and Counselling—to clients in Cheltenham, Bristol, Reading, and online.

Wherever you are, what matters most is your journey toward meaningful change. I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges and achieve a calmer, happier, and more confident version of yourself.

Please take time to read about how therapy could be your road to a calmer, happier, more relaxed and confident life.  I’m happy to hear from you if you have questions about any of the therapies I offer, and I’ll respond to any message just as soon as I am free to do so.  It would be a privilege to be a part of your journey.

Find Calm, Confidence, and Clarity

Are you feeling stuck in patterns of stress, anxiety, trauma, or self-doubt? Are you searching for ways to:

  • Overcome trauma (PTSD or CPTSD)?
  • Ease stress, anxiety, or phobias?
  • Build confidence, set boundaries, or find your voice?
  • Navigate relationship challenges or emotional struggles?

Life’s unpredictability can feel overwhelming. Our resilience may diminish as we face one challenge after another. But change is possible—one step at a time. Together, we can reframe your mindset, empower you to overcome obstacles, and restore your sense of fulfilment and joy.

Your Path to the Life You Deserve

You don’t have to settle for a life weighed down by emotional and psychological barriers. Therapy can help you:

  • Heal from past trauma.
  • Break free from unhelpful habits or thought patterns.
  • Rebuild self-esteem and self-acceptance.
  • Find peace in your relationships, both with yourself and others.

As a qualified therapist with expertise in Hypnotherapy, BWRT®, EMDR, Rewind, and Counselling, I provide compassionate, tailored support for common challenges such as PTSD, anxiety, OCD, relationship struggles, self-image concerns, and more. Together, we can rewrite the narrative of your life.

What I Can Help With

Here are just some of the areas I specialise in:

  • Trauma (PTSD & CPTSD)

Therapy is a gentle, collaborative process designed to empower you and enhance your relationships—whether with a partner, family, friends, or yourself.

Flexible Support, Wherever You Are
