Hypnotherapy for Lennox Head and Alstonville
If you live in Lennox Head, Skennars Head, Alstonville or Wollongbar, my Ballina clinic in Tamar Street is about 15 minutes away, and Goonellabah Medical Centre is about the same from Alstonville. I’ve worked with over 2,000 clients on anxiety, smoking and vaping, alcohol, weight, phobias, confidence and stress. Most people need 2 to 4 sessions.
Getting here
From Lennox Head: about 15 minutes down the coast road to Tamar Street in Ballina. There’s street parking outside the clinic.
From Alstonville or Wollongbar: you’re in the middle, so you get a choice. The Ballina clinic is about 15 minutes east along the Bruxner Highway. Goonellabah Medical Centre is about 15 minutes west, with its own car park. Pick whichever day suits.
Online sessions work just as well and most people are surprised by that. If you’d rather not drive, we do it on video from home.

How I work
I’m a clinical hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner with postgraduate neuroscience training at UNE, and I’ve worked alongside GPs at Goonellabah Medical Centre since 2010. No crystals, no vibrations. Your brain predicts what’s about to happen based on old information, and when the prediction is faulty you get anxiety, cravings, a phobia or a mood that won’t lift. I find the faulty prediction and update it.
A good part of each session is a conversation, with you fully awake, working out how your brain does the problem. The hypnosis comes at the end, once we both know what needs to change. Most issues take 2 to 4 sessions. Smoking and vaping is usually 1 to 4, and phobias are often 1 to 3.
I’m the person to see if you’ve been to counselling and you’re still feeling the same way. Counselling can help you understand a problem and cope with it better. I’m trying to make it stop.
What people from Lennox and Alstonville come for
A lot of people around here are juggling work, kids and a commute, and come in because the anxiety has started running the show, or because the wine at the end of the day has become the point of the day. I also see plenty of people for smoking and vaping, fear of flying before a trip out of Ballina Byron Gateway, and confidence for work, sport or exams.
You don’t need to know what’s causing it. That’s my job. You just need to book the chat.
What people say
“Helen is excellent. Every time I need help with coping with different crises in my life Helen just makes coping and looking at everything differently. Can’t give her enough accolades.”
“I went to Helen for hypnotherapy for smoking cessation over 2 years ago and have never looked back! It only took the single appointment and I haven’t smoked since – I was a smoker for 20 years. She is highly skilled and a lovely, warm person. Highly recommend! She has saved me thousands of dollars and probably my life.”
