I'm thrilled to have Sarah back on the podcast to talk about her amazing organization, CatchPTSD. We dive into how clinical hypnotherapy is making a huge difference for people dealing with PTSD and other traumas. You'll hear about the unique methods, how it all started, and some inspiring success stories from the personalized and group therapy sessions available on CatchPTSD.com. Plus, we highlight the power of social media in spreading the word and encourage everyone to share the CatchPTSD initiative to help those who could really use these life-changing resources.

Sarah Yuen Gilliat is a registered clinical hypnotherapist, specializing in trauma and PTSD, trained and certified. She came to clinical hypnotherapy after a 30-year career as an international broadcast correspondent, and a government, corporate and military strategic communications consultant.

After spending two years in Afghanistan, deployed with UK, US, Danish and Afghan troops as combat camera, plus three decades covering conflicts and natural disasters around the world, she chose to study clinical hypnotherapy, specifically to help traumatised people with PTSD-type symptoms.

During her training, she was led to study the work of John G. Watkins, an American military psychiatrist in WW2, who used clinical hypnotherapy to heal American soldiers coming back from the European front, as well as others who did the same. In each instance, clinical hypnotherapy worked wonders to heal traumatised minds and bodies of shell shock/combat fatigue/PTSD.

She's an amazing person to talk with and one of my favorite things she says is that she is looking forward to spending the rest of my life helping people eliminate their PTSD symptoms and take back control of their body and their lives.

Today, I'm excited to have Helen Wyer back on the podcast! Helen is a hypnotherapist who specializes in treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and anxiety. She shares her journey from teaching to hypnotherapy and how she found her passion for helping people with IBS and anxiety.

We chat about the link between IBS and anxiety, with some great personal stories and successes using hypnotherapy. Helen explains her approach, which involves normalizing the client's condition and using their own metaphors to create a positive mindset.

We also dive into the science behind hypnotherapy for IBS, Helen's training course for other hypnotists, and her work as a co-author in a book on hypnosis. The conversation is full of insights into how hypnosis can transform lives.

She's had 2 years of great success in her business and is going strong! She says her clients chose her niche for her as she soon realized they were seeing her for IBS and anxiety. From their own successes in working with her, they tend to share often about her to others.

Helen has lived in America, in a mud hut in Africa, in Austalia and more! Living all over the world, she's been able to bring all that experience together with her teaching expertise to help her in how she works with clients now. She loves horses and dogs! And one of her favorite testimonials is actually from a DOG! (That would be MY favorite, too!)
