Sue Raine Therapy
online and in person therapy in South Manchester
Embrace, Empower, Evolve
Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website. My name is Sue, and I am a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist offering online therapy sessions in South Manchester.
Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy in a Safe, Supportive Space
I specialise in supporting professional women and children—particularly women in their 40s and 50s—who are struggling with anxiety, fears and phobias that have gradually taken hold of their lives.
Many of my clients find themselves avoiding situations they once enjoyed: riding a cable car, attending social gatherings, or presenting at work. The fear and overwhelm can feel so powerful that these moments become sources of distress rather than joy. And with each avoidance, the anxiety grows stronger.
Drawing from both my personal journey with anxiety and my professional expertise, I offer a compassionate, evidence-based approach that helps clients gently face their fears and reclaim their confidence.
Clients often share that they feel calmer, more in control, and equipped with strategies that extend far beyond the initial issue—tools they carry into many areas of life.
As a cognitive behavioural hypnotherapist and coach, I use proven methods to create lasting change. My background in children’s nursing and health visiting also allows me to support children in building emotional resilience early on, helping prevent lifelong challenges.
Speak in Confidence
Therapy takes place in a safe, confidential space where you’ll be heard with empathy, sensitivity, and without judgement. Through Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy, you’ll have the opportunity to explore your thoughts and feelings freely, and begin to make sense of the challenges you’re facing.
A problem shared...
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, phobias, low mood, or difficulties in relationships, it’s not unusual to feel stuck or overwhelmed. Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy combines practical tools with the power of guided hypnosis to help you understand what's behind these issues - and to support you in finding ways to move forward with clarity and confidence.
Make better, healthier choices
Working together, I’ll help you gain insight into the patterns that may be holding you back. We’ll explore how your thoughts, behaviours, and emotions are connected - and how you can begin to make more helpful, empowering choices that support your wellbeing and personal growth.
What people say about their
Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy sessions
"Hypnotherapy with Sue helped me to control an overeating issue. Now I can enjoy parties and hotel buffets much more healthily - thank you!"
"Sue's combination of listening, understanding and gentle exploration helped me feel comfortable and supported. She provided a clear plan for each session.Following completion I feel empowered and more in control.
Thank you Sue"
"Sue's approach was incredibly effective and supportive in helping me overcome a longstanding habit. I was able to break free from biting my nails after 53 years, and her approach helped me not only stop the behaviour but also understand the underlying emotional triggers behind it.”
"Sue offers an excellent service that makes you feel safe and held and able to move forward and address the issue - hypnotherapy can feel quite daunting and I was worried about losing control but that is absolutely not the case. Sue was very reassuring and the whole experience was relaxing and helpful."
"I felt calm and empowered throughout the process. I now feel stronger, more confident and more in control - I have surprised myself."
"Sue made me feel very calm, she was so reassuring. I was quite anxious and a bit sceptical - I didn't think I would be able to do it - but Sue has a lovely manner and a soothing voice. I loved that she sent me a recording that I could listen to in my own time - it really works!"
"The time I spent with Sue was invaluable. She helped me gain a better understanding of myself and the sessions not only helped me with my situation but in other aspects of my life too."
"Sue has a lovely calming nature, she listens well and gives you the time and space for reflection. I have achieved fantastic results thanks to her professional and personable skills. Thank you Sue"
