Holistic Treatments At Westbourne
Havening
Havening is a gentle, neuroscience-based technique designed to help release emotional distress, reduce anxiety, and support healing from trauma. At Westbourne Medical Studios, we offer Havening as part of our holistic approach to emotional wellbeing—providing a calm and supportive environment where lasting change can take place.
Using soothing touch combined with guided visualisation and calming techniques, Havening helps to de-link emotional responses from distressing memories stored in the brain. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals dealing with anxiety, phobias, stress, or the lingering impact of traumatic events.
Each session is tailored to your individual needs, creating a safe space where you can process emotions at your own pace. Havening is gentle, empowering, and deeply calming—supporting a renewed sense of ease, clarity, and resilience across mind and body.

Meet The Team
Helen Skinner
Hypnotherapist
Over 13 years ago, I experienced a truly empowering hypnobirth that changed the way I viewed the mind-body connection—and inspired me to train in Natal Hypnotherapy. That journey led me to study the wider applications of hypnotherapy, and I went on to earn a Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy and an Advanced Certificate in Hypnosis for Behavioural Change.
Since qualifying, I’ve supported clients across a broad range of emotional and behavioural concerns, including during my time at a busy psychology and counselling clinic in Singapore. Now based in the UK, I continue to work with individuals and couples on everything from anxiety and low mood to fertility, birth preparation, and trauma recovery.
I have a particular interest in maternal health and frequently support those navigating unexplained infertility, IVF journeys, birth preparation, or postnatal trauma. Whatever the focus, my priority is creating a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and ready to move forward.
Each session is tailored to you, drawing from the latest neuroscience and therapeutic techniques. Alongside hypnotherapy, I’m also a certified Havening Practitioner and mBIT Professional Coach—modalities that blend modern research with timeless wisdom to help rewire limiting beliefs and unlock positive change.
Transformation doesn’t have to be hard. With the right tools and guidance, it can be gentle, creative, and truly life-changing. Whether you’re seeking emotional resilience, clarity, confidence, or relief from long-standing issues, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strength and reprogram the unconscious patterns that are no longer serving you.
Please feel free to reach out—I’d love to support you on your path to healing and renewal.
