After experiencing the powerful benefits of hypnotherapy and uncovering her true vocation, Rachel Kinney has established her own practice, Acorn2oak Hypnotherapy, based in Appleton.
Rachel said: “For 20 years I worked as a Primary School teacher in Warrington. However, a life changing event profoundly impacted my health and wellbeing and I found myself struggling with debilitating anxiety that made everyday feel overwhelming.
“I remember sitting in the doctor’s surgery back in 2013, with a strong sense that I was in the wrong place. Medication didn’t feel right for me, and a ten-minute appointment wasn’t going to address what I was really experiencing. I began exploring complementary therapies and, through trial and error, found approaches that genuinely helped.
“This experience was the catalyst for a significant change in my life. I realised that the path I was on was no longer serving me, and I needed to make a change to find true happiness, health and purpose. My own healing led me to pursue complementary therapy training, which ignited my passion for holistic healing and eventually hypnotherapy.
“Now, I’m proud to say I’ve found my true calling. At Acorn2Oak Hypnotherapy, I’m passionate about helping people understand the mind-body connection, reclaim control, and live fulfilling, happy lives. I use a solution-focused approach, which means we don’t dwell on the past but instead focus on finding effective ways forward for the challenges you’re facing right now. Together, we’ll identify and break unhelpful thought patterns that may be holding you back, enabling meaningful and lasting change.
“Whether you’re experiencing fear, anxiety, low mood, or other mental health challenges, my personalised approach ensures therapy is tailored to your individual needs. I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental space where you’ll feel safe, heard, and supported every step of the way.
“I have a particular interest in supporting both children and adults to manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelm. This is brief therapy, with clients typically requiring between 6 and 12 sessions.
“I work with clients on a one-to-one basis and also deliver engaging presentations that help people understand how the brain works -including what happens when the fight, flight, or freeze response is triggered.
If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply curious about how hypnotherapy could help you move forward, I invite you to take the first step today. Book a complimentary discovery video call to explore how this transformative therapy could support you. Get in touch now via my website or email and start your journey towards lasting change.”
