CALM, STRUCTURED SUPPORT
Glen Russell
Remedial Hypnotist • Anxiety UK Approved Therapist • CONTROL System Practitioner
​ ​​Over five years in private practice, supporting lasting behavioural change. ​
Glen Russell helps clients create meaningful, lasting change — calmly, clearly, and with structure. As a Remedial Hypnotist, Anxiety UK Approved Therapist, and CONTROL System Practitioner, he supports adults and young people to move beyond anxiety, stress, phobias, smoking, and the repeating patterns that keep them stuck.
Rather than focusing only on symptoms, Glen’s work addresses what drives them: learned responses, internal pressure, and automatic cycles that shape behaviour. Sessions are steady, practical, and designed to restore emotional control — so change holds in real life, not just in the therapy room.
Based in Hitchin, Hertfordshire, Glen works both in person and online. His approach is grounded, focused, and reassuring — a space where you can think clearly, feel safer, and move forward with confidence.
Clear, structured support — without pressure or judgement.

Ways I Help
Focused on retraining learned patterns — not managing symptoms
Anxiety & Nervous System Regulation
Habit & Behaviour Change
Calm the loop. Reset your default response.
Change the pattern — not the person.
Life Transitions & Identity Change
Steady support through the shifts that reshape us.
Weight & Relationship with Food
When food isn't about willpower.
A different starting point
Most difficulties don’t exist because something is wrong.
They persist because the nervous system is running learned patterns that once made sense — and no longer do.
Anxiety, habits, emotional eating, and identity shifts aren’t separate problems.
They’re different expressions of the same underlying process: learned responses that continue automatically, especially during periods of stress, uncertainty, or change.
​
My work focuses on helping the nervous system update those patterns — not through control, coping, or force, but by creating the conditions where change can settle naturally.
​
What was learned can be unlearned.

Why This Approach Works
Restore calm. Train the pattern
It’s learned — not “you”
What feels automatic is usually a learned pattern — not your identity. What’s learned can be unlearned, so change becomes simpler, and you stop needing willpower to “fight yourself”.
We retrain at source
Instead of relying on coping strategies that fade, we update the response where it was first trained. That’s how calm becomes your default — and progress holds even under pressure.
Progress feels natural
When your nervous system settles, change stops feeling like hard work and starts feeling normal. You’ll notice you’re not forcing it — you’re simply living it.
What to expect
Lasting change happens when learned responses are updated — not managed. If anxiety, habits or emotional eating keep returning, it's usually because the mind is running an old response on autopilot. We retrain the pattern at the source, so calm, control, and progress become your new normal.

Client voices
A calmer, clearer life, in their own words.
"Meeting with Glen and experiencing hypnosis was very new to me. I was nervous but intrigued. Each session was amazing, and I always came away feeling powerful, confident, and ready to take on board day-to-day life. Glen has the most relaxing therapeutic voice, and I was made to feel safe and at ease at all times. This is a fantastic treatment, and I highly recommend it.

​I sought help from Glen due to anxiety around flying. His calm, caring, professional attitude really does make you feel at ease. The first flight I took after a couple of sessions with Glen, was a much more pleasant experience for me and the family/friends travelling with me! Being so easy to talk to, I ended up discussing lots of different aspects of life. Glen gave me a different perspective on things and some great strategies. I would totally recommend Glen to anyone for hypnotherapy.

Glen made me feel at ease and able to talk through issues that were troubling me. The hypnotherapy sessions helped me to improve my communication with my son and see things differently; the difficulties we had been experiencing completely disappeared. I would recommend Glen and hypnotherapy for any aspect of your life that you would like to change or simply feel better about.
