IS THIS YOU?
You have probably been carrying this a while
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps, and the first one is free
A free first call
We start with a free phone call. You tell Ruth what is going on. She tells you honestly whether hypnotherapy is likely to help. No pressure either way.
Your session
Sessions run 90 minutes to two hours, one to one. You work on the habit or the reaction behind the thing you want to change. You stay awake the whole time. How many sessions you need depends on what you bring.
Support for the next 12 months
Your booking includes up to 12 months of support. If something knocks you sideways in three months, you are not starting over.
Not sure whether this is for you?
That is exactly what the free call is for. It takes about 15 minutes and there is nothing to decide at the end of it.
ABOUT
Who you will be working with
Ruth O’Sullivan is an accredited clinical hypnotherapist based on the Gold Coast, specialising in anxiety, habit change and weight management, with over ten years of practice and a Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy.
Ruth has been an accredited clinical hypnotherapist since 2014. She has run Trust Hypnotherapy since 2015. Before that she worked in mental health, as a Senior Peer Coordinator with Queensland Health. It shows in how she works: calm, unhurried, and never judging.
She sees clients across the Gold Coast in person. She also runs visiting clinics in Maryborough and on the Fraser Coast, and works online anywhere in Australia. Some sessions happen in your own home, if that suits you better.
Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy. It does not replace medical care. Ruth will point you to your GP where that is the right step.
WHY RUTH
What you can count on
Committed to Excellence
Ruth holds herself to a high professional standard — accredited, formally qualified, and continually learning. She is currently completing an NLP Master Practitioner qualification and a Diploma of Counselling, so your support stays current and considered.
Real Experience & Understanding
With a career spanning clinical hypnotherapy and frontline mental health, Ruth brings genuine, real-world understanding to every session. You are met by someone who has truly seen it before — not a weekend practitioner.
Mental Health Experience
Ruth’s background includes a Bachelor of Social Science and a role as Senior Peer Coordinator with Queensland Health, along with Youth Mental Health First Aid accreditation. Your change happens in genuinely capable, mental-health-informed hands.
12 Months of Support Included
You are never left on your own. Every booking includes ongoing support for up to 12 months while your new habits settle in — support that continues well beyond the session itself, at no extra cost.
A Safe, Calm & Respectful Space
Every session is a safe, calm and respectful space. You are never judged and never rushed — just supported, at your own pace, in an environment built around your comfort.
Free, No-Pressure First Step
Start with a free, no-obligation consultation — a relaxed conversation to see whether hypnotherapy is right for you. No commitment, no cost, and no pressure to book anything.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
In their own words
“No one can believe that I am a non-smoker! To be honest, I was a bit sceptical but I would tell everyone to give it a go — it works, thanks.”
“Thank you, my life is back — 3 months now and totally alcohol free.”
“I just wanted to touch base and update you on the fact that I’m still not vaping. Thank you so much.”
These are individual experiences. Results vary with your own readiness, motivation and follow-through.
QUESTIONS
The things people ask first
Will I be asleep or out of control?
No. You stay awake and aware the whole time. It feels like being lost in a good book or film. You can talk, move, and stop whenever you want.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on what you bring. Habits like smoking or vaping often take one session, with a follow-up if you want it. Anxiety and older patterns usually take a few.
What happens on the free call?
The free call is a 15-minute chat about what is going on for you. Ruth tells you honestly whether hypnotherapy is likely to help. There is nothing to decide at the end of it.
Is hypnotherapy safe?
Yes. Hypnotherapy is drug-free and gentle. There is nothing to take, wear or swallow. It works alongside your doctor’s care, not instead of it.
Can I do this online?
Yes. Sessions run over video anywhere in Australia. They work the same way as in person. You need a quiet room, a steady connection, and time alone.
What if I have tried other things and nothing worked?
That is the most common reason people call. Willpower works on the decision. Hypnotherapy works on the habit and the trigger under it. That is usually the part that has been winning.
