Tired of Menopause Symptoms Taking Over?
Menopause and perimenopause can be unpredictable, intense and exhausting. You might feel like you’re constantly putting out emotional and physical fires – from mood swings and brain fog to night sweats and fatigue.
Clinical Hypnosis for Menopause with Nicky Jackson gives you a practical, natural way to calm your nervous system, reduce symptom severity, and regain clarity. Sessions are available in-person at Brisbane Livewell Clinic Cannon Hill or via videoconference.
Key Takeaways
- May assist with hot flushes, night sweats, anxiety, low mood, poor sleep and brain fog
- Suitable for both menopause and perimenopause
- Provided by Nicky Jackson, Clinical Hypnotherapist, at Cannon Hill or online
- Structured sessions tailored to your symptoms and goals
- A non-medicated option that works alongside other therapies or HRT
What Makes Menopause So Overwhelming?
Hormonal changes affect your body and your brain. Menopause and perimenopause can make everyday stress feel unbearable. Your sleep might be light or broken. You may react emotionally to things that never bothered you before.
When the nervous system stays in a heightened state, symptoms worsen. That’s where Clinical Hypnosis can help.
This therapy works by calming your internal response to stress and discomfort. Over time, this reduces how strongly you react to triggers like heat, emotional pressure or fatigue.
What the Research Shows About Clinical Hypnosis
A recent article reported strong evidence that Clinical Hypnosis helps with menopause symptoms.
Key points include:
- It may reduce the frequency and intensity of hot flushes
- It can help improve sleep quality and reduce fatigue
- Emotional reactivity and anxiety may become easier to manage
- It offers a drug-free, evidence-informed option for symptom relief
This mirrors what we see in our Clinic – patients feel calmer, sleep better, and gain a stronger sense of control. These sessions are ideal for women who want something natural but structured.

In Our Experience
In the Experience of Our Practitioner
Many women come to Nicky after trying supplements, hormone therapy or diet changes without results. They’re looking for a practical therapy that addresses their mind and emotions, not just their body.
“We don’t treat menopause as a checklist. We treat it as a system imbalance – and we change the system by working from the subconscious up.” Nicky Jackson, Clinical Hypnotherapist
In the Experience of Our Patients
Patients often report changes in sleep, mood and symptom intensity after just a few sessions. They feel more like themselves – clearer, calmer, and better able to cope with daily life.
“Nicky helped me understand how my stress was driving my symptoms. I started sleeping again, and the hot flushes stopped controlling my day.” Angela, Patient
