Effective Minds


Hypnosis is a deep state of relaxation during which positive suggestions are made to the subconscious mind, bringing about beneficial changes. You will feel peaceful as your conscious mind rests. This is the overly critical part of the mind which often prevents you from making the changes you wish to make.

The subconscious mind controls habits and other things that we do automatically. It is fueled by our emotions and imagination. The subconscious mind also contains memories of everything that we have ever experienced. During hypnosis, your subconscious mind is very focused, allowing learning to happen quickly.

Hypnotherapy is not about mind control. In hypnosis the mind is very receptive to new ideas and open to suggestions which encourage more sensible, balanced and helpful attitudes.

The number of sessions required varies from person to person however most people feel some benefit from hypnotherapy immediately and most make the changes they wish to make in only three to five sessions.

Our History & Experience
Founded and managed by Lisa Webber, Effective Minds is located in Kardinya, Western Australia. It evolved from a passion of wanting to help friends and family to live the lives they imagined. Having studied and worked for many years as a school and university teacher, Lisa has a thirst for learning and throughout her adult life she has studied many personal development courses as well as having an interest in health and well-being.

One evening Lisa saw a show on TV that would change her life's direction. It was about hypnotherapy and the client featured suffered agoraphobia. She had a close friend who suffered panic attacks and wanting to help, she went in search of hypnosis training. She discovered The Australian Academy of Hypnosis and Rick Collingwood. Rick is acknowledged as one of the world's most skilled professional hypnotists and hypnosis trainers and Lisa feels very privileged to have been able to study under him.

It was never Lisa's intention to make a career out of hypnosis but rather help her friends and family to HARNESS THE POWER OF THEIR MINDS. Lisa's stepmother had suffered from insomnia since having children and after their first hypnosis session, she began sleeping much better. In fact the change was so profound that she told all her friends about the wonderful change in her sleeping patterns and soon Lisa had many others who wanted help through hypnosis. In addition Lisa found that since the deregulation of hypnotherapy in WA, interest in this modality was growing in the community.

Lisa's focus is to help children and help teenagers to restore their direction and concentration. Lisa also helps adults through hypnosis to improve their health and happiness.

Case Studies
Confidence
Toby was a family friend who had just started high school. He was a capable student but he never enjoyed or excelled in mathematics. He had struggled to learn his times tables in primary school and found that this had eroded his confidence in math lessons. He was not a risk taker when it came to life and learning and he wanted to trust himself and his decisions more. He asked his mother to inquiry about hypnotherapy. Toby had three sessions with hypnosis and noticed a difference immediately. He was very happy to have made the changes for himself and his mother still remarks about the benefits of his hypnotherapy.

Self Esteem
Sam was a nine year old boy with low self esteem. He struggled academically at school and would always tell himself he was dumb when he faced work which was challenging. He had hypnosis to help him feel better about himself. His teacher commented to his mother that since using hypnosis, Sam had become more positive and willing to ‘Have a go’ in class. Sam is now much happier and has begun to enjoy school

Concentration
Jason came for hypnosis to help his concentration in the classroom. He had found his friends were not attentive during lessons and he was becoming this way also. He also wanted to ‘have a go’ and not be worried about making mistakes as he was learning then remarked that he was much more disciplined in class and he was pleased with the results he had from hypnosis and did not feel he needed any more support in this area. His parents were happy too because their son was applying himself at school, allowing his work to reflect his potential.

Organisation
Rebecca was a procrastinator, very good at wasting time and avoiding things she did not want to do. She had three sessions of hypnosis and quickly found she was making changes in her life. She made lists and prioritised and set herself time limits. She became more disciplined about doing the things she didn’t like, which allowed her more time to enjoy doing the things she did like.

Insomnia
Bianca was eight and she had trouble sleeping. She could fall asleep easily enough, but every night around 2am she would wake up and would not return to her own bed, insisting she stay in her parents’ room. This pattern of behaviour continued for almost a year before the parents considered hypnosis. Bianca’s pattern of insomnia improved immediately after hypnosis. Her parents are very happy to report that Bianca now sleeps throughout the night and they no longer have three in the bed.

Anxiety
Many students approaching TEE suffer from exam anxiety. There is so much pressure and importance placed upon this period of their lives. Jennifer had received a lot of tutoring over the years but still she felt nervous when sitting exams. The fear that she felt left her unable to focus and do her very best in these situations. During the hypnosis sessions a post hypnotic trigger was installed, allowing her to bring back those calm feelings she experienced during trance. She has since completed her TEE and was accepted into the tertiary course of her choice.

Fears
Adam had been on a family holiday and during the evening plane trip they experienced turbulence. After that Adam became increasingly fearful of driving in the car at night. His parents tried many techniques to help Adam overcome his phobia, but the fear persisted. After only two sessions of hypnosis, Adam is now much more relaxed when travelling in the car at night.


What Our Clients Say
"After just 2 sessions with Lisa, hypnotherapy made me feel stronger inside. I felt more organised and was able to concentrate harder in Math."
Jayden (14) - Willagee

"Since my first hypnotherapy session with Lisa, I have been feeling a lot more confident at school. My Maths classes seem so much easier now and I'm actually starting to enjoy them. I feel much more relaxed, I think positively now and I am no longer anxious and worried about the day ahead."
Tim (13) - Kardinya

Parents of Tim (13): "We were a little hesitant at first in using hypnotherapy to help our 13 year old son to think positively about his transition from primary to high school. However there was no need to worry as Lisa conducted the sessions in a very safe and reassuring way. Almost immediately we noticed a positive change in his attitude. There were no more negative comments about school, only positive ones. Our son's first report reflected his new-found confidence. He enjoys high school so much more now and is relaxed and less anxious. We are so glad we tried hypnotherapy, as it really has proven to be a success!"

"Thanks for hypnotherapy. I'm more relaxed and more concentrated. Thanks again for hypnotherapy."
Ben (9) - Mt Pleasant

Parents of Ben (9): "We would like to thank you for what you have achieved for our son, Ben. He has always been quite 'highly strung' so we have really noticed how much more relaxed he is since beginning hypnotherapy. We recommend 'Effective Minds' to anyone, whether they need specific help or just want to learn how to relax. Your kind disposition and professional manner will serve you well in the future.

"My now 14 year old son has had trouble getting to sleep and sleeping soundly since he was a baby. After just 3 sessions with Lisa he is sleeping so much better, lying awake for an hour or two before getting to sleep has become a thing of the past. If only we had had this help a decade ago what a difference it would have made to both our lives. Thanks Lisa."
Stephanie (mother) - Joondalup

"Since my visits with Lisa, she has helped me improve certain things in my life that make me feel much better."
Alex (16) - Atwell

Parents of Alex (16): "Our teenage son went to see Lisa about some fear and confidence issues and we are thrilled with the results that Lisa has achieved for our son. We thought that we would try phobia hypnosis as everything else had failed and it really worked well for him. We would highly recommend Lisa and we thank her for helping our son."
