Gary Smith

Best Mind Therapy, is a Swindon based Clinical Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy practice, founded by me, Gary Smith DSFH, AfSFH (Reg.), HPD, MNCH (Reg.) CNHC (Reg). I follow the Solution Focused approach to Therapy, incorporating Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Neuro Science and Hypnosis.

I originally became interested in Psychotherapy as a way of helping a family member overcome fears and sensory issues. Whilst getting nowhere with traditional routes to find assistance and help, I decided I would embark on educating myself in the best ways to find solutions to the problems.

Having spent 30 years working as a senior manager in the retail and motor sectors, I have a vast experience of working with people, developing businesses, ensuring continual improvement and managing goals. I am now putting this knowledge, drive and training into helping others achieve a better life.

I work with Children (I have three of my own) and firmly believe we should all ensure our future generations are given the tools to enjoy their lives without fears, anxiety and worries. Allowing them to understand and overcome any issues that they have. Providing them with the knowledge to make the best out of life.

Phobia, Trauma and PTSD reduction are amongst my specialities. I use proven techniques to help people overcome the Fight and Flight responses that they can have when they are triggered by memories of past experiences.

I am a member of The National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH), The Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy  (AfSFH) and The Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC)

I have a positive outlook and believe that we can all make small differences to our lives and of those around us to Make Lives Better. My ethos is to ensure that my Clients only have enough sessions to allow them to gain Intellectual control and no more than than they need. I ensure that they understanding why they may feel like they do and this is critical to the healing process.
