Chronic Pain
Rita El Alaoui
Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapy diploma, reiki master diploma.
Living with chronic pain is exhausting. It wears down your body, your patience, and your spirit. You've seen the doctors, tried the treatments, and maybe you've been told "it's all in your head." Here's the truth: even if it's not caused by your mind, it's processed by your mind. And that's where hypnotherapy can help.
In a deeply relaxed state, we work with your brain to turn down the volume on pain signals, release tension you've been holding for years, and give your nervous system a break it desperately needs. We don't erase your condition but we can change how you experience it.
Less suffering. More living.

Canberra is Australia's purpose-built capital city and home to the federal public service, creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including burnout, moral injury, and careers lived in close proximity to political power. The city has the highest median income and education level of any Australian capital, with a population generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Canberra Hospital provides institutional mental health services alongside a well-established private practice community serving the inner south, Belconnen, and Tuggeranong. A recurring theme across many Canberra practices is the tension between personal values and the constraints of institutional work — a dynamic that cuts across much of the city's therapy culture.
