About

By focussing on specific issues that include IBS, depression, anxiety, stress and pain management, Melanie uses not only her therapy qualification skills but also draws on own personal experiences, as she understands how life limiting these conditions can be.

Based in Dunbar, East Lothian Melanie works with clients both in person and via Skype allowing them to remain in the comfort of their own home.


About Melanie Phillips

Cognitive Hypnotherapist & Coach specialising in panic attacks, depression and anxiety.

I am a solution focussed, practical therapist who enjoys helping my clients find ways to break the unhelpful patterns of behaviour that they find themselves in. Drawing on my own personal experiences and after years of training and research, I specialise in working with people who are dealing with panic attacks, depression and anxiety. These conditions can manifest as phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), lack of self-confidence and being unable to deal with unwanted and intrusive thoughts.

Having trained at the Quest Institute as a Cognitive Hypnotherapist, I have also qualified in a varied techniques which include Emotional Freedom Technique, Eye Movement Integration Plus, Reiki and Life Coaching. No two clients are the same and so by being able to draw on a number of therapies means I am able to truly help my clients to overcome or to manage their condition.

Supporting Other Therapists

I am also very passionate about supporting other therapists and I am a supervisor to other therapists. I feel this is an important aspect of my practice and so I ensure that I keep up to date on all the latest information regarding the field of therapy. I believe very strongly that all therapists should be accountable and receive the best possible training before being able to treat members of the public.

I belong to a number of professional bodies including the Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy Professional Association (QCHPA), National Council of Hypnotherapy (NCH), The Association for the Advancement of Meridian Energy Therapies (AAMET), Complementary and National Healthcare Council (CNHC), UK confederation of Hypnotherapy Associations (UKCHO).

Through my professional and personal experiences my mission statement is always ‘nothing has to be the way it’s always been’.


Cognitive Hypnotherapy

Cognitive Hypnotherapy is taught at the Quest Institute by Trevor Silvester whose approach is significantly different from the traditional schools of Hypnotherapy. Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy draws on recent discoveries and ideas from Evolutionary Psychology, Positive Psychology, Cognitive theory and NLP and incorporates them into a modern idea of hypnosis to provide a framework for therapy.


Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) also known as Tapping is a deceptively simple technique that I teach to clients so they can use this whenever they feel necessary, for the rest of their life.

I strongly believe in empowering clients and EFT is a great system that works by tapping on the acupuncture points around your head and neck, it can be done anytime, any place, especially as it can take as little as 5 to 10 minutes to have a positive effect.

EFT can be used for emotional and physical well being and is extremely effective for pain management.


Eye Movement Integration Plus (EMI Plus)

Eye Movement Integration Plus (EMI Plus) I have used this extensively with clients who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD, with wonderful results. One of the great bonuses of this system is that we can work content free.

Whilst EMI looks deceptively simple, it has a strong and immediate effect upon the client. I have used this very successfully with clients that experienced abuse as a child. Whilst they had the memory or group of memories in their mind we worked together and in a matter of moments they found the memories no longer had any ‘power’ over them.


Learning Coach

The system is geared towards teaching an entire class of students in the same way, regardless of age, gender, ability and engagement whether it works for them or not. It is not the fault of the teachers, it’s just the way the education system has been developed. But understandably a number of students are ‘left behind’.

Because we are all unique, by finding the way that you personally learn I can help you to succeed within the system that exists. You can adapt your needs so you gain the most possible from the education system, whether you are at school, college, university, apprenticeships or evening classes.


Life Coach

Life Coaching is different from mentoring or counselling as coaching is driven by a specific project, goals or aim you want to achieve in your life. It can be something in your professional or personal life, or a combination of both.

Life coaching can be about your career, perhaps you want to start your own business or change direction. It can focus on your private life, you may feel your life has become stagnant and you want to find ways to make the changes you want.

Through her commitment and perseverance to get onto the pathway that she wanted in her career, she was able to feel more fulfilled within her life and her chosen career.
