Traditional therapy manages your anxiety, Hypnotherapy & EMDR help you heal it.
You’ve probably tried talk therapy. Maybe more than once. And yet, your anxiety lingers.
Why?
Because most traditional approaches treat anxiety as a thinking problem, offering short-term coping tools. But Anxiety is not just thoughts.
Anxiety stems from unresolved emotional trauma stored in the body.

I'm really glad that I took the step to go and see Jimmy because I continue to feel a positive change in how I feel, think and cope with life day to day, which is exactly what I was hoping to achieve. I've learned so much from Jimmy and continue to take many things from our sessions into my everyday life. His words have helped me feel a sense of calm and capability that I've learned was always there but just out of reach. I love that even though our sessions have come to an end, I'm still learning, processing and noticing positive changes every day. Jimmy has a warmth which instantly made me feel at ease and a genuine care and interest in helping which made the whole experience so much easier. I highly recommend Jimmy to help you with whatever you need, it's the best money I've spent - an investment in myself and my future.
A year on from sessions with Jimmy and I can say with confidence that he changed my life. I now don’t fear anxiety, I understand it. I now don’t exhaust myself from avoiding it, I welcome it and watch it disperse. Feelings of discomfort are now rare not daily. Jimmys open and honest approach ensured every session felt valuable and progressive, and the books and audio he shared with me I still use today. Could not recommend highly enough. Forever grateful
I found my time with Jimmy very helpful in so many different ways it was a good relaxing environment and his professionalism was absolutely fantastic he has made me not only not want to gamble anymore but has also made me realise how much I undervalued myself and I really appreciate everything that he has made me understand about things in everyday life are quite easy to cope with if you relax and give yourself a few minutes to collect your thoughts before you make decisions i would recommend him to anyone that has a problem with gambling and other kinds of problems in life
Jimmy was patient, kind, knowledgeable and understanding. He was thought provoking. Provided great ideas and expertise. He listened and has made me a newer and better and more positive person. He also gave me excellent podcasts to listen to, which helped me overcome and understand my addictions.
I wanted to say how much James Hutton has helped me , I have been visiting him for his Hypnotherapy for just over a year, and I have learnt so much, he is such a kind and thoughtful person and so patient and calm, and an amazing listener. I can truly say that the benefits of his therapy have changed my life, I feel so much calmer, more confident, and happier than I have been in my life for many years
Jimmy worked with our 14 year old son, who despite looking like a strong, sporty, confident teenager was experiencing incredibly strong anxiety at school. Lots of therapists who work with schoolchildren are wonderful but superficially ‘Mumsy’ ladies, and our rugby playing son just wasn’t connecting with that. In 3 months of working with Jimmy his ability to experience, but live with, anxiety when it arises has truly transformed his experience of life. He was on the verge of wanting to leave the school he had chosen to go to, and now is thriving there. Jimmy, thank you, what you do is truly special.
Jimmy is a fantastic hypnotherapist. I’ve made more progress and feel more at peace after a couple months of working with Jimmy than a year of traditional therapy. He combines multiple approaches and tailors sessions to you. I’m so grateful to have found him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to make progress on their healing journey!
I had my first session with Jimmy back in January 2024. If I’m being honest, I was very hesitant — I didn’t believe he had what it took to help me. By then, I had already given up on life. I was dealing with severe PTSD from childhood, anxiety, and an eating disorder. I couldn’t attend any social events. I was a self-saboteur — constantly ruining opportunities and even personal relationships. I also had an overactive, overthinking mind that would spiral into extreme scenarios and drive me to the edge. Since January 2024, I’ve had about 13 sessions with Jimmy, and those sessions have completely changed the course of my life. I’ve become a social butterfly — I now attend events, I’ve overcome my eating disorder, and I’m no longer a self-saboteur. That alone feels like a miracle. I’ve recommended Jimmy to many people, from my siblings to my friends. The growth I’ve experienced in just 13 sessions has been truly remarkable. Before I started working with Jimmy, I didn’t trust that he could help me (just being honest). I remember when he mentioned the cost of five sessions — I immediately thought I was about to waste my money. I had lost all hope of ever finding help. But he delivered. I went from booking five sessions to booking eight more shortly after. I can honestly say he is worth every penny. Just go in with an open mind, and be as trusting as you can be. Gumma.
I came to see Jimmy to help me deal with the intense itching and frenzied scratching resulting from my eczema. After listening to the recording he made for me following our first session, I noticed a dramatic reduction in the frequency and intensity of the itching and was able, when it did occur, to deal with it without scratching. This has significantly improved the quality of my life and after a few further sessions I now feel the symptoms of this skin condition to be well into remission. Sal. 2025
Jimmy is an excellent practitioner. He has aided me significantly and has really helped me to reach the potential I, and all of us are, capable of.
Jimmy is an outstanding professional. His empathetic approach and attentive listening truly make a difference in every session. He has helped me explore and understand deep aspects of my life, providing me with practical tools to navigate challenges. With him, I feel safe, understood, and never judged. Thanks to his support, I’m making real progress in my healing journey. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, compassionate, and patient-centered therapist.
I shared a lot of things that were troubling me and on my mind which I believed were problems, I’m happy I reached out Jimmy as he has helped me believe I can achieve my goals. Couldn’t recommend enough and will return when needed
Jimmy is friendly and professional...I really value my time spent within his sessions.
Working with Jimmy has been truly revolutionary for me. I really cannot thank or recommend him highly enough. When I came to Jimmy I felt very lost, trying to navigate the difficult years of my mid 20s. He has helped guide me to a place of clarity and inner peace which did not seem possible a few months ago. It has been incredibly freeing working with Jimmy too, as he has helped me see there is no single ‘right’ way to do life, and he has helped me realise that I have all the answers within myself. Jimmy is always highly responsive out of sessions - he is very generous with his time and resources so you are never on the journey alone. I feel much more confident and happy as a result of working with Jimmy. But most valuable of all is that even on the days when I feel anxious, I can access that inner calm still and I truly feel and know that I have the tools to figure it out.
Jimmy really helped with my daughter’s anxiety. She found her sessions with him incredibly beneficial and helped her understand the cause of her anxiety which was essential for her recovery.
Working with Jimmy has been such a revelation. I genuinely feel a lot more at home with myself then I have in my entire life. He makes you pull apart the blocks that have been holding you back and you are able to look into the "why". The alignment of self was very out of joint and we have put it back together. I would definitely recommend his services as it was such a pleasure to work with him and you really do feel in charge of your life again. Thank you Jimmy
I saw Jimmy because I was experiencing severe anxiety, and when we started our sessions I was not in a good way. I had five sessions with Jimmy, during which we focused on accessing feelings related to childhood trauma that were resurfacing in the form of anxiety. This was a different approach to previous therapy I have had and has been really effective. I would definitely recommend Jimmy for his personalised and caring approach. I felt he cared about my progress and took pleasure in seeing my improvements during the course of my therapy.
I had a couple of sessions with Jimmy, a couple of months ago. What professional and kind human being! He was easy to communicate with and quickly understood what I was going through. I really appreciate his intervention because it was a big motivator for me to follow my own path and learn to deal with self-doubt and limiting thoughts! I'm very grateful to have worked with him! Highly recommended!
I could not recommend Jimmy more! We have been working together for the last 5 months, and with incredible results! Jimmy is a very professional therapist. Thanks again!
Hello Jimmy! I felt called to leave you a review because I thoroughly enjoyed working with you. I felt seen and listened to every step of the way. It was very easy for me to do deeper work during our sessions because you held such safe space and asked great questions. It is so rare to find someone that I consider a truly gifted practitioner that is also operating from the highest level of integrity and heart that I wanted you to know how grateful I am to have connected with you. Look forward to more sessions and growth together. Thank you again, MariaPaula Rey
Before working with Jimmy, I felt like I was missing the glue. I have been meditating, working on my mindset, attending workshops, getting coached, reading books, journaling, making art… all were bringing me closer to where I wanted to go. BUT I was struggling to connect it all. Bring it together without feeling like I was building a house of cards. That is what Jimmy helped me to do. He helped me mix my glue to connect everything. Hold it together with trust, self-belief, and compassion. And he helped me to discover how to do this with the strengths within me. He didn’t tell me I had the wrong tools. He helped me use the tools that felt right for me. I was hesitant to sign up. Thinking I have so much already that I can continue to use. But I wanted to speed up my pace. Working with Jimmy did just that. He became my guide. And he helped me to open doors I didn’t know exist. I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn from Jimmy, for all of his wonderful book recommendations, and for helping me to embrace my weirdness as a superpower.
I didn’t think that I was able to become the person I am now in such a short amount of time. Jimmy’s professionalism and personalised approach helped me deal with issues I’ve been trying to solve for years and where other therapists couldn’t find a solution. I highly recommend Jimmy, you won’t be disappointed.
When I started therapy with Jimmy I was a mess. The first few sessions were difficult because it forced me to look inwards and face alot of suppressed emotions. Jimmy taught me how to connect with myself, understand who I am and the many parts of me without judgement but with love. Jimmy helped me with my emotions, it was a safe space to talk about them and to allow me to feel them. For years I had tried to understand what they were until Jimmy said ' you don't have to.. They're fleeting.. So just feel them at the moment'. It was a eureka moment. I'm very glad I signed to to therapy with Jimmy. We've come a long way and I'm so grateful for his help. He's also very approachable, fun, and never judges. Always creates a safe space and listens to every word. Thank you Jimmy. For everything.
I saw Jimmy regularly over a period of three months after seeing some his posts on LinkedIn. I had been introduced to the idea of accessing / retraining the subconscious (over 90 % of who we are) already, so I didn't need convincing in order to approach this type of therapy, but I didn't quite know how effective it would be, and it's almost magical the speed at which it works. What's fantastic about these sessions is that they enable to escape the addiction of analysis (the negative thinking loops - which we can all get very skilled at justifying, thinking these thought cycles keep us safe) - you can spend decades doing this with most traditional therapists, but not ever really changing what it is that's causing you to repeat patterns. Surface level understanding of your behaviours is of course required and necessary as part of a healing journey - but with this, Jimmy will use innovative techniques to get you access very early memories, wiping away today's stresses, and ensuring actual changes. You'll likely get regular recordings personal to you and your session, that you can save and use in your own time - hypnosis on tap! Will be returning 100%.
I went to Jimmy following a difficult period in my life. The sessions I had with Jimmy left me with a sense of calm during an otherwise very chaotic time. I hadn’t felt this peaceful for a very long time and it really helped me move forward in the best and most constructive way. I would highly recommend Jimmy Hutton Therapy for anyone undergoing difficult life-transitions.
I’ve had sessions with Jimmy since May 2022, and instantly he made me feel comfortable and at ease. His focus is very much on allowing me to find the answers within me by being supportive and encouraging. He stays focused and sees the bigger picture, the overall root cause that influence many aspects of my life. He points out the improvements, no matter how small and thereby changes the focus to the positive. He is very involved in the process, also between sessions. He follows up regularly, sends ideas for books/podcasts etc that he believes can help me see things differently. I live abroad but I have had the chance to have a face to face session with him, which was great. Otherwise, the zoom sessions work very well.
I have been working with Jimmy for a few months and he has helped me to navigate so many unhelpful emotions in order to be able to let go and move forwards with my life. It’s a bit like an onion, the more you peel the more layers are revealed! Todays session was out of this world. I have been experiencing anxiety and fear about a particular situation and he beautifully took me through what has been playing on my mind to a calmer place of clarity and now excitement about what lies ahead. I feel like Jimmy listens and really understands what I need, he gently and expertly nudges me to face in to and move through whatever is coming up for me as I continue to peel that onion. I always feel much calmer and focussed after our sessions. Thank you Jimmy
Can’t thank jimmy enough. Feel like he has put my mind at ease and changed my way of thinking. Would definitely recommend.
Jimmy has helped discover so much about myself I didn't know. It's really helped me to approach areas of my life differently. He's such a patient therapist, so kind and understanding and I cannot recommend him highly enough to others.
I was recommend Jimmy by a work colleague during a difficult transitional period in my life. I didn’t think it possible to have such profound results in such a short period of time. Jimmy tapped into memories that I hadn’t even realised had caused such impact on me, and totally transformed how I perceived them and in turn myself. Jimmy has a presence that makes you feel incredibly comfortable immediately and his compassion and empathy is incredibly soothing. After a few sessions I felt able to cope with life with much more clarity and resilience. I am so thankful for the support Jimmy gave me, he really is a wonder therapist and I couldn’t not recommend him enough.

Get answers to common questions about hypnotherapy, the process, and what to expect from our work together.
Hypnotherapy is a therapeutic technique that uses guided relaxation and focused attention to help you access your subconscious mind. It’s a safe, natural state that allows you to explore thoughts, feelings, and memories that may be influencing your current behavior. During hypnotherapy, you remain in control and aware while being more open to positive suggestions and insights.
Somatic therapy focuses on the connection between mind and body, recognizing that trauma and stress are stored in the body. This approach helps you become aware of physical sensations and use body-based techniques to release tension, process emotions, and restore balance. It’s particularly effective for anxiety, as it addresses both the mental and physical aspects of stress.
Each session typically lasts 60-90 minutes and begins with a discussion about your current state and goals. We then move into the therapeutic work, which may include hypnotherapy, coaching techniques, or somatic approaches depending on your needs. Sessions are conducted in a comfortable, safe environment where you can relax and focus on your healing journey.
I work with various forms of anxiety including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, performance anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, and work-related stress. Whether you’re dealing with specific triggers or general feelings of overwhelm, we can develop a personalized approach to help you find calm and confidence.
Most clients see significant improvements within 4-8 sessions, though this varies depending on individual circumstances and goals. I recommend starting with a commitment to at least 3 sessions to allow the process to unfold. We’ll regularly review your progress and adjust the approach as needed to ensure you’re getting the best results.
Healing is a process, and everyone progresses at their own pace. While some clients notice changes after the first session, others may need more time. We’ll work together to identify what’s working and adjust our approach if needed. Remember, lasting change often happens gradually, and I’m committed to supporting you throughout your journey.
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for positive change in your life, you’re likely ready to begin. The fact that you’re asking this question suggests you’re already taking the first step. During our initial consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and determine if this approach is right for you. There’s no pressure – we’ll only proceed when you feel comfortable and ready.
