There are always reasons why we do things. Some of those reasons are “programmed into us” from an early age. Sometimes our automatic responses are the result of difficult histories. As time goes by, we form beliefs about ourselves, others and the world. Some of these beliefs serve us well. Others cause us suffering and limit who we can become. Often theses beliefs are deeply embedded within our unconscious mind. They become automatic mental “processes” that we simply follow. Through psychotherapy and strategic hypnotherapy, I can show you how these unwanted processes can be revealed, and help you move towards making new and better choices for yourself and those you love. Depending on the presenting issue, there may be no need to delve into your past. Many of these changes can be brought about without the need to revisit the past.

In my practice, I draw from a blend of Ericksonian Hypnotherapy and Strategic Psychotherapy to help clients navigate anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, and addiction. Ericksonian Hypnotherapy uses passive, yet directive language to help clients enter a relaxed, receptive state where they can access their subconscious mind. Through gentle guidance, I assist clients in reframing limiting beliefs, shifting negative thought patterns, and tapping into their inner resources for healing and personal growth. 

Alongside this, I incorporate Strategic Psychotherapy to help clients address underlying issues and develop practical, solution-focused strategies. This approach empowers clients to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, manage overwhelming emotions, and create meaningful change. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their challenges, gain clarity, and create a personalised plan that leads to a more balanced, fulfilling life. Through our work together, I aim to help you develop the tools and strategies you need to move forward with confidence and a renewed sense of control.

You are unique – your therapy should be tailored to you! While there are core principles that I work by, my range of modalities allows me to adapt to you.

You’ll learn strategies that you can use in your daily life. Brief, easy to remember tools to help you gain control of your responses and come back to calm.

Combining talk therapy and hypnosis helps align your conscious and unconscious mind. If logic and emotion are at odds, emotion will usually win – without strategies, that is.

Logic is your conscious mind. Emotion and learned responses are your unconscious mind. So, working with both is the pathway effective pathway to sustainable change.

Of course, before we start, I’ll check that my methods suit your specific challenges. For best results, you need to be an active participant! If you are curious, willing, and ready for change, I am confident that I can help you. Rapport matters in therapy, too. Your free consult is the perfect opportunity to see if we ‘click’. Clients tell me that I create a safe space for them to share, and they feel a sense of genuine connection. For my part, it is enriching to see clients detach from problems and step into choice.

Are you ready to put that problem away? Let’s get started.

Are you smoking, drinking, drugging, overeating, sleeping too much, sleeping too little, spending money you don’t have, watching porn, scrolling on your phone, spending time with others who leave you feeling sad, bad, mad?

It’s certainly rung true for so many people I’ve helped. The confusion, indecision, unproductiveness, reduced wellness, and unwanted habits and phobias, most of which stems from a cluttered mind… It’s a lot more common than you may think. But they are often secondary to the core of whats actually driving the habitual thinking and behaviors. They are the patterns that you have learnt throughout your life, a largely an unconscious process, and now you that you know its not really you, its how you are going about it, you can learn something new, do something different.

For some, it may be a messy divorce, it may be job or financial insecurity, career change, starting high school, social anxiety, perhaps its peer pressure, or even bulling, life presents so many changes and challenges. 

Yet, no matter what their age, gender, cultural backgrounds, personal life experiences… hypnotherapy has enabled each individual to find a better way. Because when life does change, I’m committed to helping you change with it, for the better.

Whether you’re looking to overcome a personal roadblock, grow professionally, or want to unlock a new level of performance, we can do it together. Taking strategic mental steps to unlock a better (more resilient and higher performing) you, and avoiding the high anxiety or burn out in the process. The expectation for most presenting issue is between 1 – 6 sessions. I charge an initial consultation of $250 + GST and $1200 + GST for the ongoing treatment plan. Contact me for a free 15- min chat to see if we are a good fit.

And it all starts with one question: What do you have to lose?

While some therapies may offer short-lived relief, interventions like hypnosis serve as potent catalysts for enduring change. Redirecting entrenched patterns towards the present and future, rather than dwelling on past experiences, is pivotal for facilitating sustained transformation.

If you’re ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and committed to embracing fresh perspectives, I invite you to schedule a complimentary 20-minute consultation. Together, we can determine if we are the right fit to work together to shape your new future and enable you to get on with living your best life.

These unrealistic expectations translate themselves to stress to Anxiety. This stress places us in a position where we can no longer perform at a basic day to day level.

I’m Tahn Miller, a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapy and Strategic Psychotherapy practitioner at Amplify Therapies.

Several years ago, my journey into this field began when my own child battled debilitating social anxiety. Witnessing their transformation from a vibrant child to a fearful adolescent propelled me to explore various therapies. It was through the transformative power of hypnotherapy, under the guidance of a skilled psychotherapist, that we witnessed a pivotal shift in my child’s well-being.

This personal experience ignited my passion for understanding human behaviour on a profound level.

Today, I am dedicated to the continual study of neuroscience and behavioural sciences that help individuals and organizations to effectively navigate mental health.

Utilizing evidence-backed techniques and strategies, I teach individuals and organisations the unconscious patterns that underpin our behaviour to optimize wellbeing and productivity.

From limiting beliefs to patterns of behaviour that may be causing tremendous blockages, utilising the benefits of hypnosis and neuro linguistic techniques helps my clients realise they are not their thoughts, beliefs or feelings, that they don’t need to stay stuck – they have the capacity to change anything in their lives.
