There is no need to remember the past to shape your future
You do not even have to speak of what the issue is!
THE FUTURE IS YOURS
Sometimes, things can be overwhelming, however, no-one is an island.
We are available to work with you within therapy to clear that path
Who are we?
We are Cath & John Tate, known as the Hypno-Tates, a man and wife team. We specialize in Grief and Anxiety after we lost our son aged 19 to suicide and struggled to find the support we needed. We were both diagnosed with PTSD and understand the challenges and effects that post-trauma has on daily life but also that there are solutions, for us this was hypnotherapy.
We are the only trained Sexual Freedom Therapists in Cumbria having trained with the internationally renowned Kaz Riley to support you to make the changes you need to have a happier and more fulfilled sex life whether your issues are physical or mental.
Although we specialise in Grief and Anxiety, we can help you with trauma, stress, PTSD, stopping smoking, weight loss, fears, phobias, and men's health.
We can work individually or together if needed to help you find the solutions you need to move forward in your life. We are flexible and give you a choice of male or female therapists. We are based in Carlisle, Cumbria, but work globally over Zoom to give you support and therapy without leaving home or you can attend face-to-face appointments, whichever you prefer.

Sexual Freedom Practitioners: Sexual Freedom Hypnosis
SEXUAL FREEDOM HYPNOSIS
Hypnosis can address the guilt and shame often associated with sex at its core on a subconscious level.
It can create new behaviour patterns and responses whilst improving the mind and body connection, this allows the person to take back sexual control.
It can help people to have positive and fulfilling sexual experiences by feeling comfortable with their own and others’ bodies, and giving themselves permission to give and receive pleasure whilst communicating their own needs, wants, and desires.
Join the sexual freedom revolution.
TRAUMA & GRIEF THERAPIES
We listen and are guided by you to help you understand how past experiences, often from childhood, affect life now and the way in which you view yourself. behave and react.
Beginning therapy and moving through the process can be daunting as it often brings up difficult or painful emotions and memories but by using what is called "Content Free Therapy" there is no need to revisit or verbalise past trauma in order to resolve the issues and is more gentle than many talking therapies.
Our goal is to create a safe therapeutic environment for you to feel empowered to change and move forward more positively in your life.
It is our job to support you gently and safely in the processes of self-discovery, recovery, healing, and growth.
We deeply respect each and every one of our clients and feel honored to be able to support them in changing their lives.

What you can expect?
First we will ask you for a brief summary of the issues and how they affect you, but if necessary the session can be conducted "Content Free" where you give the minimum information but we can still guide you in your mind to resolve your issues.
We will fully explain the whole process of hypnosis, induction (going into hypnosis) right through to your release from hypnosis. We will also discuss and review your treatment goals before and after each session. We will decide after speaking with you, which method of induction suits your needs, this could be using a soothing tone and describing images that create a sense of relaxation security and well-being as you go into hypnosis, or a rapid induction technique.
When you're in a receptive state of hypnosis, we will suggest ways for you to achieve your goals at a sub-conscious level, such as reducing pain or eliminating cravings to smoke and ways to deal with the issues you have presented with. We may also help you visualize vivid, meaningful mental images of yourself accomplishing your future goals.
When the session is over, either you are able to bring yourself out of hypnosis or we will help you end your state of hypnosis.
Contrary to how hypnosis is sometimes portrayed in movies or on television, you will not lose control over your behaviour while under hypnosis, you will remain aware of surroundings and remember what happened during hypnosis. People worry about the therapist taking over your mind or controlling you, but hypnosis is really only a state of focus which enables us to speak directly to your subconscious which controls our thoughts and actions without us consciously being aware. Have you ever watched a film or been on a long journey, then you realise that time has flown by without you noticing? It is the same with hypnosis it is just a state of pure focus.
You may eventually be able to practice self-hypnosis, in which you can induce a state of hypnosis in yourself. You can use this skill as needed — for instance for pain relief or to encourage a positive mental attitude

TESTIMONIALS
I have bitten my fingers, my nails and the skin around them my entire life and didn’t think it was possible ever to stop. I was a bit skeptical about hypnotherapy and was very nervous before the session but Cath explained what we would be doing in the session and managed to calm me down before we started. I am so grateful to Cath as I have tried so many times before to stop and never succeeded. I would highly recommend Hypno-Tates, they listen to you, take their time to understand the issue and they don’t pressure you
I for one have always been a little hesitant about hypnotherapy and believed I couldn’t be helped. Well, I gave Hypno-Tates Hypnotherapy a try and I was surprised! Cath who gave me the session (via Zoom) really put me at ease, talked me through the session and everything that was going to happen. The most relaxed hour in months, I certainly felt calmer and clearer and brighter too. Whilst it was just the first, I feel a few more sessions is definitely going to improve my general mental health. I can highly recommend them, Hypno-Tates Hypnotherapy
I had been struggling with the grief of losing my best friend to suicide for 2 hard years when I finally sought out the help of Hypno-Tates. After the first session, my immediate feeling of sadness/sickness that I would get when thinking about my friend and the situation had gone, and been replaced with a feeling of warmth and comfort. I had a further session for anxiety and realised that through their Hypnotherapy Cath and John allowed me to pinpoint the issues i needed addressing and deal with them whilst I was under. I’ve continued for a few more sessions and I’m feeling great. The relief and positive change that hypnotherapy with them has brought me is hard to put in to words, but I would encourage anyone considering help with anxiety, grief, addiction, depression and other intimate issues who thinks they are beyond curable, to give Cath and John a call.
John and Cath helped me enormously with a lot of issues I thought I’d have for life. I can’t thank them enough and I would recommended their hypnotherapy sessions to anyone. I was quite sceptical to begin with but I had nothing to lose and I’m so grateful I had the session. They are very professional yet caring in everything they do, and I look forward to having another session soon.
I saw Catherine for hypnotherapy as I was struggling with a specific issue that had been bothering me for a long time.Catherine put me at ease straight away and got to work on the problem. In what felt like a very short space of time Catherine had resolved my issue to such an extent that I could barely recall anything about it. Catherine has lots of experience using hypnosis and getting rapid results. I highly recommend her services. Thank you Catherine.
Hypno-Tates are amazing. I had a session with them through Zoom and it was fantastic! As a person who struggled with anxiety for several years I never thought it would go, but Hypno-Tates changed my life and gave me the freedom I craved. If you struggle like I did them I highly recommend you get in touch with them.
I was very nervous to begin with, Cath made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, talked me through everything that would be happening and answered the questions I had about what I was worried about. I felt so relaxed and calm after I had had my session and would recommend everyone to try a session. I can’t wait to have my next session. Keep up the fantastic work that you are both doing.
Cath and John surprised me by offering Hypnotherapy on Zoom. I didn’t know it was possible. Yes it it, what an experience. I felt safe and comfortable in my own surroundings.
Thank you so much for your help, I feel much more confident now. I would not hesitate recommending you to anyone, the use of Zoom in these days of “Lockdown” was brilliant and just what I needed. Thank you so much Pat
I have known Cath and John Tate since they trained with us in Leeds. They are very professional and competent therapists. I would recommend them without hesitation. Their caring and compassionate approach and attitude is a signature of their want to help. They are both current and competent in a plethora of therapies which they deliver to a very high standard. If you need help then these are the people to contact.
I had hypnotherapy sessions over the internet on Zoom with both Cath and John and was amazed at how powerful those sessions were. Both are amazing hypnotists, full of knowledge and wisdom.
Thank you Cath for helping me to feel the best I can be. Happier and with a positive outlook for the future. I have no hesitation in recommending Hypno-Tate Hypnotherapy.
I thought hypnotism was hocus pocus. Not any more. On a recent flight I was gripping the seat arms for dear life, cursing every noise and movement the plane made and sweating hideously.
Flights are usually sheer panic throughout. Up steps John with an offer of help, and skeptically I agree. He starts up and I allow my thoughts to be directed by John.
I am fully aware of whats going on but somehow he strips away the worries and anxiety and talks to a logical part of my brain that is clouded by these fears. Long story short – it was as though he flipped a switch and I was sat there without a care in the world. From then on turbulence and landing were a doddle. I cant thank him enough.
Will certainly be back again to sort out any other fears.
I was slightly nervous beforehand but Cath and John soon put me at ease, they were both so inviting and calming. Everything was explained thoroughly and to my understanding. Recently I’ve struggled with my mental health, mainly anxiety and since I had hypnotherapy, the anxiety has reduced so dramatically. I can’t wait to get booked in for another session. I would highly recommend this. Thank you again both.
Had hypnotherapy to healthy eat and exercise.
Cath put me at ease straight away as I was feeling a bit apprehensive with it being my first time and didn’t really think it was going to work. So far I have lost just over a stone in weight .
Very happy with my result and would highly recommend Hypno-Tates.
Total sceptic when it comes to hypnotherapy but decided to give it a go and sure glad I did. Nervous yet excited, Cath soon made me feel at ease. Her explanation was comprehensive and informative allowing me the ability to relax. At no point was I made to feel uncomfortable and found the whole experience so relaxing.
I still can’t believe I was hypnotised. Looking forward to my next session and to see the progress I have made. Thanks Cath x
Had a session today to help me get over a fear that was impacting on my life. Could not believe how much the session helped me. Completely amazed by how effective the hypnosis and kinetic shift was. I was able to do what I had been avoiding for so long – not just do it, I actually enjoyed it!!
Was a little skeptical at first but completely blown away by how much just one session has helped.
Cath was so supportive and reassuring through out the whole process which made me feel more relaxed about it all. Would absolutely recommend to anyone!!
I came to Cath in a last hope attempt quite some weeks ago, I left it this long to leave a review to see if the effects of hypnotherapy worked and I cannot recommend it enough, it was such an amazing experience, Cath explained everything thoroughly and took exceptional care, followed by excellent aftercare. I cannot thank or recommend Hypno-Tates enough! I will definitely use this service again when necessary.
I’m a skeptical person by nature so I wasn’t convinced of hypnotherapy, that was before my wife and I had a session with them. John and Cath are the best suited people for hypnotherapy, they are both highly knowledgable, clued-up and welcoming people.
They compliment each other extremely well and they’ve certainly converted me!
This husband and wife team are fantastic hypnotists, they have a huge wealth of knowledge. I would thoroughly recommend them both x
Wow, this was such an amazing experience. I’ve never been hypnotised before but Catherine made me feel very comfortable and totally at ease. Since my sessions I feel more in control and aware of the choices I make which has had a positive impact in my life. I would highly recommend hypnotherapy with this lovely couple.
