Lawrence Hand
Clinical Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist

Lawrence is a qualified Clinical Hypnotherapist and Strategic Psychotherapist holding one of the only Government accredited Diplomas of Clinical Hypnotherapy. Growing up in a family struggling with mental health, he studied first hand what it takes to overcome learned patterns of unhelpful experiences.

Marrying this experiential knowledge with his formal education, Lawrence brings a unique blend of real-world insight and therapeutic skill to support individuals seeking deep, lasting change.

His practice, Inner Rhythm Holistic Wellbeing, reflects a commitment to rapid and long lasting change in just 4 - 6 sessions, and he does this through scientific backed Hypnotherapy as the vehicle to deliver Psychotherapeutic education. Think of it like the vehicle and the map that can help you arrive at your ideal destination.

At Inner Rhythm, we believe that imagined problems require imagined solutions. 

We often have clients ask if anyone can be Hypnotised and we typically ask them if they've ever watched a movie and felt so absorbed that they laughed or cried. If you can be absorbed in a movie, a good book or day dream, then you are a good candidate for Hypnotherapy.

Lawrence specialises in working with individuals who struggle with:

• Anxiety

• Overthinking

• Low self-esteem

• Dependencies 

• Trauma

• PTSD

• Overwhelm

• Depressive patterns

• Relationship with food

• Disconnection 

• OCD

• IBS

• Stress​

His approach is both strategic and compassionate, helping clients shift from feeling out of control to becoming the active creators of their lives. Sessions are designed to address the root of problems, not just the symptoms—drawing from Strategic Psychotherapy to focus on the ‘How’ rather than the ‘Why’.

As a father and wellness practitioner, Lawrence is deeply attuned to the challenges of modern life, including the pressures of parenting, career, and identity. He is passionate about creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can reconnect with their inner resources, rewrite limiting narratives, and build sustainable change.

Outside the therapy room, Lawrence is passionate about sound, ancient wisdom, and fatherhood—integrating these into his work where appropriate to deepen connection and healing.
