About Us
Meet Sian Barnard – Clinical Hypnotherapist & CBT Therapist
I’m Sian Barnard, a clinical hypnotherapist and CBT therapist based in Newcastle. Through Peaceful Minds, I provide professional hypnotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and psychotherapy to help clients understand and change unwanted thoughts, feelings and behaviours.
Once they understand how they tick, the skills and tools learnt are with them for the rest of their lives. Often other issues not directly addressed in our sessions can become less bothersome as an across the board shift occurs.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist and CBT Therapist, with extensive training and experience in hypnotherapy, cognitive behavioural therapy and psychotherapy. I am also a member of The British Society of Clinical Hypnotherapy and trained at both the London School of Clinical Hypnosis and the College of Cognitive Behaviour Hypnotherapy.

Alongside my clinical hypnotherapy qualifications, I trained extensively in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. I also hold a Master’s degree in CBT Psychotherapy from Goldsmiths College, giving me the ability to combine different therapeutic approaches depending on the individual needs of each client.
