A Personal, Practical Approach

I am Matthew, a hypnotherapist, NLP practitioner and mindset coach. My work combines therapeutic ideas with clear, practical strategies that can be used beyond the session.
You will have space to explain what has been happening, what you would like to change and what feels important to you. From there, we agree an approach that feels appropriate, respectful and manageable.
Starting something new can feel difficult, and asking for help is not always easy. Simply exploring your options is already a useful first step.
Why Choose Excel Mindset?
- More than 18 years of professional experience
- Tailored one-to-one sessions rather than standard scripts
- An integrated approach using cognitive hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching where useful
- Practical, calm and solution-focused support
- Flexible appointments in Didcot, Reading, Central London or online
- A confidential, non-judgemental setting
People often arrive knowing what they want to change but finding that willpower and conscious effort have not been enough. My approach looks at the automatic thoughts, emotional responses and habits that may be keeping the difficulty in place.
The aim is not simply to talk about a problem repeatedly. It is to help you understand how the pattern works, access your existing strengths and practise more helpful ways of thinking, feeling and responding.

Aphantasia & Thinking Styles
Most people notice meaningful changes within 2–5 sessions, although this varies depending on the individual and their goals.
For stopping smoking, many clients become smoke-free after a single session.
My Approach
Many difficulties are maintained by learned patterns that operate outside conscious awareness. You may logically know that you are safe, capable or ready to change, while another part of your mind continues to react in the old way.
Depending on your goals, sessions may draw on cognitive hypnotherapy, NLP, mindset and life coaching, performance psychology, Inner Voice Awareness, Flow State Activation and practical strategies to use between sessions.
You remain in control throughout. The work is collaborative, and techniques can be adapted for different thinking styles, including people who do not visualise clearly or who have aphantasia.
What Happens in a Session?
The first session gives us time to discuss what has been happening, how it affects you and what you would like to be different. I will explain the approach, answer questions and agree a clear direction with you.
Sessions are structured but flexible. We may explore the triggers and patterns behind the issue, use focused hypnotherapy or NLP techniques, and identify practical steps that support change outside the session. Progress is reviewed together and the approach is adjusted when needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I be in control during hypnotherapy?
Yes. Hypnotherapy is a collaborative process. You remain aware and able to respond, speak or stop at any time.
How many sessions will I need?
This varies according to the person, the issue and the goals involved. We can discuss a suitable starting point and review progress rather than promising a fixed outcome or timetable.
Can I have sessions online?
Yes. Online appointments are available through Microsoft Teams or Zoom, provided you have a quiet, private place where you will not be disturbed.

Didcot is generally the most convenient in-person option from Wallingford. Reading and Central London are also available, and online sessions can remove the need to travel.
Do I need to be good at visualising?
No. The work can use words, ideas, sensations, memories and other forms of attention. It can be adapted for non-visual thinkers and people with aphantasia.
What if I am unsure whether this is right for me?
You are welcome to ask questions before booking. An initial conversation can help you understand the approach and decide whether it feels suitable for you.
