Janet Adams
Welcome to my hypnotherapy practice! I’m Janet Adams, a Clinical Hypnotherapist based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. My journey into hypnotherapy began with my own experiences using hypnosis to navigate life’s challenges as an autistic adult. The transformative impact it had on my well-being inspired me to help others achieve the same positive results.
My Hypnotherapy Journey
I trained at CPHT (Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training), widely regarded as the Gold Standard in hypnotherapy education. During my studies, I completed over 400 hours of training and practical sessions, culminating in my qualification as a fully certified Clinical Hypnotherapist.
In 2019, I proudly opened my own practice. Shortly after, I transitioned to working exclusively online, offering clients the same outstanding results in a more flexible and convenient format.

- The Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy
I adhere to their strict codes of conduct, ethics, and confidentiality. Staying current with the latest hypnotherapy techniques is a passion of mine, and I enjoy attending regular professional development events to enhance my practice.
My Approach
As someone who deeply understands the power of neurodiversity, I recognize that challenges and strengths often go hand in hand. My approach combines empathy, creativity, and a focus on helping you overcome obstacles while celebrating what makes you unique.
Using tools rooted in neuroscience, I help clients:
- Manage stress and anxiety
- Sleep better
- Set and achieve meaningful goals

Every session offers a confidential, judgment-free space where you can speak openly and explore solutions tailored to your needs.
Understanding Hypnosis
Focused Attention: Hypnotherapy is goal-oriented, helping you concentrate your mental energy on positive change.
Trance State: Trance is a natural, everyday state of mind—much like being absorbed in a book or a film. In this relaxed state, your mind becomes open to new ways of thinking, creating neural pathways that support beneficial habits and behaviors. Trance is so effective that it has even been used for pain management in clinical settings, such as at Liège Hospital in Belgium, which has been incorporating hypnosis into surgeries since 1992.
A Timeless Practice: While the term “hypnosis” may sound modern, the use of trance for healing dates back thousands of years, including Ancient Egypt’s Sleep Temples.
During hypnosis, your intellectual mind rests, reducing the brain’s “white noise.” This calm state allows you to tap into your inner problem-solving abilities—like a scientist finding inspiration while daydreaming. Hypnosis empowers you to reshape unhelpful habits and embrace positive change.
