Clinical Hypnotherapy

Hi, I’m Mindy Mayfield, Wife and Mom to four of the most beautiful humans I know, three of them on earth and one on the other side but always close by. 

In 2021, every parents worst nightmare came true when we got a knock on our door. Our oldest son, just before his 18th birthday had been in a tragic and fatal car accident. There is no human language for this, and I still struggle to put it into words. I could never explain the millions and millions of layers of emotions we went through and still do. It didn’t just break me, it completely shattered every single part of me, never to be the same again. In the story of Anne of Green gables they talk about the deapths of despair, never, could I ever imagine being in such a state - and then, in and instant - I was. I knew that somehow I had to get my family through ( you never get actually through ) this. I remember actually telling myself to “pick up that leg and put it in the pants” because there were days I didn’t want to go on and many times I just wanted to stay in bed. We did all the things one would think is required including counselling as a family and individually , and we were completely surrounded by incredible love and support, in fact I hate to say but I had no idea what an inpact my son had in his little life. I was completely dumbfounded at the masses of people, of all walks of life at his funeral. 

Six months later I found myself in a doctors appointment discussing how I was doing and the doctor offered Hypnotherapy, I was definitely stuck on some things, in fact, my brain was like a broken record of receiving the news that changed everything and I could barely function. I literally was willing try anything, including something I had never really even heard of. Enter Hypnotherapy > On the way to my first session I called my best friend, who happens to share the same doctor , an amazing man who I am forever indebted to. I told her I would call her after, we were both pretty curious about what would happen. She shared with me months after that I had finally sounded like myself again on the phone that day, after my appointment. It was life changing to say the least, my brain was finally able to find some rest and start a journey of healing and transformation. I was also so confused about what this Hypnotherapy was and desperately needed to know more. So, I went back to see him for a few more sessions, and with lots and lots of questions. Eventually, connected with my doctors trainer and mentor and the journey began.

My greatest quest is to honour my son by helping others, not only with grief and loss but also the everyday and not so everyday struggles that this life brings. I know I would not be the same person I am today without this therapy, it gave me my life back, the strength to emerge more resilient then I ever thought was possible and hope for others in their trials.
