About Take Control Hypnotherapy


Call Wendy Giffen on 07712715413 for a free initial telephone consultation to see how we can help you overcome obstacles and lead the life you wish to lead.

Take Control Hypnotherapy uses the power of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, coaching, emotional freedom technique, mindfulness, Tarot and other techniques to provide therapy specific to your needs. Clients can enjoy this integrated approach or can opt for a straightforward hypnotherapy or talking session if preferred.

After successfully working with individuals, families and groups for many years, including managing a Family Centre and an Advocacy Service, Wendy Giffen founded Take Control Hypnotherapy in 2007. The practice is situated just off Queen Street in Cardiff City Centre.

The techniques available can help you take control of the areas of your life that you feel need changing to transform negative thoughts and behaviours into those that are positive and beneficial. All the therapy is done in a safe enviroment at your own pace and most people find the session to be a deeply relaxing and positive experience in itself. After each session you will be given a therapeutic exercise to take away that you can use to use at home whenever you wish. Each seession is complete in itself but most people find that they want to go on to do between three to six seessions. Alternatively a long single session over the course of a day is available on request.

Hypnotherapy is a normal state of mind which is rather like the feeling you have when you are engrossed in watching a film or going on a long car journey, or listening to music. It is a relaxed, focused state of concentration where the body is in a dreamy, pleasant state and the subconscious mind is open to visualisations and suggestions. People under hypnosis cannot be made to do or say anything against their will and full autonomy is retained at all times. Relieved from mental and physical distractions, you will have the opportunity to make powerful life changes in just a few sessions.

Talking Therapy [ psychotherapy can be used as part of Hypnotherapy or on its own. This can help you talk through any issues, which might be concerning you and be listened to in a non judgemental way, helping you to reach a way forward that feels best for you.
Coaching also can be used to help you clarify your situation and create a plan of how to proceed in reaching your goals. It gives you practical guidance of how to organise your life and free up time and energy to pursue a lifestyle that is more fulfilling for you. It is also beneficial for those who want to rethink their priorities and set their lives I another direction perhaps after a life changing event such as divorce, bereavement or retirement.

Coming to therapy you are free to choose a particular technique or can have a blend of any of the approaches if you so prefer.

All therapy is done in a non-judgemental, confidential, positive and secure environment with the client always retaining full control whilst enjoying a state of relaxation and calm.

I only had to see Wendy once and adapt to her clever technique to shake off a horrid chocolate and sugar addiction. This lovely lady comes highly recommended.
Response : Thanks, I used an Emotional Freedom Technique which can be a useful tool in bringing rapid relief for a wide number of issues including cravings . I'm delighted I could be of assistance.

I went to Wendy for hypnotherapy to help me deal with my extreme needle phobia. Before Christmas I was able to have my flu jab. Today, however, I achieved my ultimate goal and gave blood! Wendy is fantastic, and her technique clearly works. I would recommend Wendy to anyone!

I went to Wendy for help with quitting smoking and to put it simply it worked. I had never had hypnotherapy before and didnt quite know what to expect, but I was recommended it by a friend so thought I'd give it a go and I'm so glad I did! The whole experience was very relaxing and I felt totally at ease. With Wendy's help my cravings gradually decreased until there were none left. I feel like a weight has been lifted and overcoming my addiction has brought back my self confidence. Feeling I'm in control of my life again, I cannot thank Wendy enough and I urge anyone trying to quit smoking to give this a try!
Mrs Giffen is a highly skillful therapist with exceptional talents. The way she tailor made our sessions uniquely to my own needs was very reassuring. I have now reffered many friends and family to her fantastic quick-smoking 2 hour session. Highly reccomended to all.

I went to Take Control hypnotherapy as I had low self esteem after a relationship break up. I found the sessions friendly and deeply relaxing, the techniques Wendy taught me have changed my life! I now have much more confidence and ready to tackle anything. I thoroughly recommend Take control hypnotherapy.
I have attended two group hypnotherapy sessions with Wendy and constantly hear excellent reviews from friends of mine that she helped quit smoking. The group sessions were extremely relaxing, calming to the mind and body as well as really beneficial in addressing my personal issues of tension and stress. I do not hesitate to highly recommend Wendy and believe that one will be hard pressed to find anyone as extremely professional offering such excellent value for money in the Cardiff area.
