Conquer stage fright and audition nerves with hypnotherapy in London and online
Hello, I’m Susannah. I am a fully qualified clinical hypnotherapist and coach with over 22 years of experience helping people feel calmer and more confident on stage.
Stage fright can affect even the most experienced performers. I work with actors, musicians, dancers, comedians, singers, presenters – anyone who finds themselves in front of an audience and suddenly feels overwhelmed. You might feel calm and capable in rehearsals, but as soon as you step into the spotlight, your heart races, your mind goes blank, or your voice shakes. The fear isn’t always about forgetting lines or making mistakes, sometimes it’s just the intensity of feeling exposed or being judged.
Stage fright is often fuelled by negative subconscious beliefs, like “I’m going to mess this up,” “I’ll forget everything,” or “They’ll think I’m not good enough.” These thoughts can run in the background, sabotaging how you feel and how your body responds.
This is where hypnotherapy for stage fright can help. Hypnosis helps calm the part of the brain that sees these moments of performance as a threat. In our sessions we will work on changing the negative self talk and creating new positive thoughts and beliefs so that performing feels natural and enjoyable.
My bespoke sessions use a combination of coaching, NLP and hypnosis to overcome stage fright and performance nerves. If you would like to learn more about my Stage Fright Hypnotherapy Programme, get in touch.
