Sleep should be the easiest thing in the world — lie down, drift off, wake refreshed.
But when the mind won’t switch off, bedtime can become the hardest part of the day.

  • You’re tired… but not sleepy

  • You fall asleep… but wake at 2–3am

  • You sleep… but don’t feel rested

  • You dread going to bed because you’re afraid of another bad night

That’s not “you getting older.”
That’s your nervous system staying on guard.

At Hypnotherapy Drogheda I help people calm the mind, switch off the stress response, and deal with the real reason the system won’t let you rest. All sessions are online, so you can do them from the same room you’ll be sleeping in — which actually helps train the brain to relax there.

Book my free 30-minute, no-obligation consultation and we’ll work out why your sleep isn’t doing its job.


Why can’t I sleep?

Most insomnia is not “I can’t sleep,” it’s “I can’t switch off.”
Your body would love to sleep. It’s your mind that’s noisy.

Common patterns I see:

  • Overthinking the day (“Did I say the right thing?”)

  • Future worry (“What if…?”)

  • Body holding stress (jaw, shoulders, tummy)

  • Anxiety/panic waking you in the small hours

  • Grief or old emotion that only surfaces when the house is quiet

  • Fear of not sleeping (“What if I can’t sleep again tonight?”)

Here’s the key bit from the analytical model:
When there’s bottled-up emotion in the background, the system doesn’t feel completely safe… so it stays a little bit awake.
That’s why relaxation apps help for a week — then stop. You soothed the surface, but not the source.


Two ways I use hypnotherapy for sleep

1. Suggestion / Clinical Hypnosis (symptom-focused)

This is great when your insomnia is mainly stress-based or habit-based.

In a calm hypnotic state we:

  • teach your body how to relax on cue

  • slow the breath and heart rate

  • detach from racing thoughts

  • install a positive sleep script (“I drift, I stay asleep, I wake refreshed”)

  • break the “clock-watching” habit

People often sleep better after the first or second session simply because the body remembers how.

2. Analytical Hypnotherapy / Pure Hypnoanalysis (cause-focused)

This is for the long-term, stubborn insomnia — the kind that’s been there for years, or that arrived after a loss, shock, or period of stress and just never left.

In those cases, poor sleep is usually an outward expression of an internal anxiety (very similar to phobias and panic). The mind won’t fully let go because something, somewhere, never got processed.
Analytical hypnotherapy lets that material come up and release over 8–12 weekly sessions, so the nervous system finally gets the message: we’re safe now — you can sleep.

And, as with all my analytical work: I never charge for more than 12 sessions.


 

Why Insomnia Hypnotherapy Drogheda works so well.

Researchers have looked at whether hypnotherapy can help people who struggle with insomnia and other sleep problems. A systematic review of several clinical trials found that hypnotherapy can help some people fall asleep faster and feel their sleep has improved, especially when compared with doing nothing (being on a waiting list). (ScienceDirect)

However, the studies were quite small and not all of them were high quality, so the results aren’t conclusive. In some trials, hypnotherapy did not work better than other calming or “placebo-style” treatments. (Consensus)

Overall, hypnotherapy looks like a promising, generally safe option to support better sleep, particularly as part of a wider plan that might include sleep-hygiene advice and medical review where needed. More large, well-designed studies are still needed to show how effective it really is in the long term. (PMC)

When you do hypnotherapy from home, in the same space you rest, you’re training your mind: “This room = safety = relaxation.” You also don’t have to drive home afterwards and undo all the calm you just built.

I work with clients in Drogheda, Dundalk, Louth, Meath, Monaghan, Cavan and across Ireland and the UK.


When to get help

  • You’ve had more than 3–4 weeks of poor sleep

  • You wake tired most days

  • You’re more anxious because of bad sleep

  • Your moods or relationships are being affected

  • You’re relying on alcohol / scrolling / TV to knock yourself out

  • You’re saying “this can’t go on”

That’s the point where it’s easier to fix than to keep fighting it.


Your next step

Book my free 30-minute, no-obligation consultation.
We’ll see whether you just need a couple of suggestion-based sessions to reset your sleep… or whether we need to do the deeper analytical work to clear the anxiety that’s keeping you awake.

Can’t Sleep, Won’t Sleep – The Law of Reversed Effort

Ever notice how the harder you try to sleep, the more awake you become?
That’s the law of reversed effort — and it’s the reason so many of us end up in the frustrating loop of exhaustion.

Maybe you fall asleep easily, only to wake up in the early hours and can’t drift back.
Or perhaps you lie there restless for hours, mind buzzing with thoughts and emotions.

Insomnia can affect anyone, and over time it can lead to tiredness, low mood, anxiety, and poor concentration.
The good news? You don’t have to keep living this way.

How Hypnotherapy Helps with Insomnia

At Hypnotherapy Drogheda, I use a gentle, evidence-based approach to help quiet the mind and restore your natural sleep rhythm.
Through hypnotherapy, we work directly with the unconscious mind — the part responsible for habits, emotions, and automatic thought patterns.

With insomnia hypnotherapy, we can:
✅ Break the “sleepless loop” your mind has become stuck in
✅ Reduce stress and overthinking before bed
✅ Rebuild healthy, natural sleep patterns
✅ Heal emotional triggers that may be keeping you awake
✅ Teach you simple self-hypnosis to relax deeply each night

It’s not uncommon for clients who’ve struggled with poor sleep for 10, 20, or even 30 years to finally find lasting relief.

Common Signs of Insomnia

You might recognise yourself in one or more of these:

  • Difficulty falling asleep

  • Waking up often or too early

  • Racing thoughts at bedtime

  • Feeling unrefreshed in the morning

  • Daytime tiredness or irritability

  • Trouble focusing or remembering things

  • Worrying about sleep itself

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you can sleep well again.

A Gentle, Natural Way to Sleep Better

While medications can offer short-term help, hypnotherapy provides a safe, natural solution by working with your mind’s natural ability to change.

Whether your sleep problems began recently or have been around for years, there is a way forward.

At Hypnosis Drogheda, my goal is simple — to help you:
🌿 Feel calm and relaxed at bedtime
🌿 Enjoy deeper, more restful sleep
🌿 Wake up refreshed and ready for the day
